Unable to bootstrap Juju controller

[quartzeye]

Going through my build script that has worked many times before, I now can no longer bootstrap the Juju controller. Running the latest up to date 18.04, lxd at 3.0.1, juju at 2.4.1-bionic-amd64.

Also created container after "lxd init" was done and tested. Container ran with out issue and was able to ping the internet from inside of container.

Been this way all week. I have done everything I can think of. I used a snapshot from a VM that had worked many times a few weeks ago that now does not work. I updated the VM with out success. I even rebuilt a brand new VM with the same results.

Something has changed on the Ubuntu side in the last week or so with either the default Juju agent, configuration script, or the hosted services.
