OrbStack crashes when internet connection drops briefly #2322
Description
Describe the bug
Not sure what the bug is exactly, but here is my pure speculation.
- It seems like OrbStack crashes when internet connection drops briefly with gluetun VPN container running
- "tooManyInterfaces" error appears in logs might be an alternate explanation, but there are only 14 interface
In any case, this is what specifically has been happening, whatever the cause:
- OrbStack completely crashes
- All containers stop
- "failed to add network" error=tooManyInterfaces appears in logs
- Requires manual OrbStack restart to recover
