screen in lxc-attach || Must be connected to a terminal.

I tried to create a screen session on a Proxmox/lxc container, but got greeted with :
# screen -S rsync_archive_docs Cannot access '/dev/pts/3': No such file or directory
What exactly is happening I’m not sure, but it looks like I already have some sort of session since I logged on, over the host (lxc-attach -n $ID) so either log in over a new ssh session directly to the server or, if you are playing with NAT like me, you can just run :
script /dev/null
And that creates a fresh console and screen works again, jeeej for screen !
// update 14/02/2017
A new error now occurs :
# screen -S test Must be connected to a terminal.
This also can be fixed by script /dev/null
