No web and bigger problems I think. [SOLVED]

sharkie · Aug 20, 2014

Hello,

New proxmox user here. Inherited a 2 node cluster that appears to be running but I cannot get to the web interface on either node using https://proxmox-2.xxx.com:8006.

I am able to ssh into both systems.

I have restarted both systems and can run clustat to find both nodes online.

I get pveversion -v: command not found.

From another thread it was suggested to run apt-get install proxmox-ve-2-6-32. I get:
E: Unable to locate package proxmox-ve-2.6.32E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'proxmox-ve-2.6.32'

Here is the output from dpkg -l

Code:

Hi,
it's looks that you have two problems:
1. your apt-sources are not correct (don't find proxmox-ve-2.6.32 and your system is outdated).
2. you have removed important packages (with rc marked)

See here: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_repositories
and do an "apt-get update"; "apt-get install proxmox-ve-2.6.32"; "apt-get dist-upgrade"; "reboot"

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

Hi,

Please check if pveproxy is listening:

~# netstat -paten | grep 8006

From outside:
~$ ping proxmox-2.xxx.com

Match ip and make sure it is not firewalled.
~# iptables -L -n

Try:
/usr/bin/pveversion -v

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

I fixed the repos and was able to run apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade without error. I did, however, get an error when running apt-get install proxmox-ve-2.6.32

root@proxmox-2:~# apt-get install proxmox-ve-2.6.32

I am still unable to run pveversion -v

What else can I check?

Thanks again.

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

what is the result of

#apt-get install pve-manager ?

Hi,

I get:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

pve-manager : Depends: libuuid-perl but it is not installable
Depends: hdparm but it is not installable

And then if I try to install any of those:

Package libuuid-perl is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

E: Package 'libuuid-perl' has no installation candidate

Would it be easier to just start from scratch?

Thanks,

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

libuuid-perl is a standard debian package,

check your /etc/apt/sources.list

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

Right. When adding the no sub repo I commented out the general deb repo.

Making progress, I think. I am now able to run pveversion -v, but it appears I still have some issues.

Code:

I next tried to run apt-get -f install and got the following errors:

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

You need to remove conflicting packages like qemu-utils first.

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

On a whim I tried to access the web server again....and sure enough, the web server is working.

However, I still am worried about the underlying structure.

I can't remove any packages because they all depend on another. Try to remove qemu-utils and get depends on pve-manager and qemu-server. Try to remove pve-manager and get depends on spiceterm and qemu-server...and so on. No combination of apt-get remove, purge or -f will get rid of any qemu packages.

Any advice on how to remove these and get everything up to the right versions?

I just love inheriting other folks broken systems...

Thanks

This is strange qemu-utils package from debian have nothing related with pve-manager and qemu-server from proxmox ...

maybe tr with aptitude instead apt, It can propose you some conflict resolution.

sharkie · Aug 26, 2014

Re: No web and bigger problems I think.

Ah. That worked! It definitely uninstalled pve-manager. I will now try to re-install. I believe the install was successful. I can get to the web interface and pveversion -v shows the following. Is there any other check I should do to ensure the stability of this system?

Thank you so much for your help.
