[openvps-dev] openvps-mon: ValueError: unpack list of wrong size

[Gregory (Grisha) Trubetskoy]

Jen -

Most likely it calls vdlimit here and doesn't like its output. Before, 
vdlimit was a separate tool. Starting recently, it is included in 
util-vserver, but it takes different command-line arguments and produces 
different output. The latest versions of openvps are smart enough to deal 
with either, but the version that are pointed to in the openvps howto 
require the old vdlimit.

HTH,
