Proxmox 8.1 ESXi import storage error 500

After reading this thread I changed both values and restarted my 7.0U3n host. I can now add the ESX-Storage but when I select the Esx-Storage I am getting this error:

failed to spawn fuse mount, process exited with status 65280 (500)

I have upgraded every package to lateset, but I wonder if there is some library missing?
We had to run /etc/init.d/hostd restart in the ESXi host to get this error to stop. Also, I am seeing responses from people saying they had to reboot the ESXi host instead of running the hostd command.

I already restarted the service and rebooted the whole host but no progress - for testing purposes I also disabled and unloaded the esx firewall, also no progress.

After reboot the proxmox server I can the storage but I still can't use the storage item itself...

Code:
failed to spawn fuse mount, process exited with status 65280 (500)

Did you change the soap settings in the ESXi GUI, or did you edit the config.xml file?
 
Actually I don't have such config.xml only config-defs.xml and there are no such settings, so I changed it using the GUI
