please remove any stock debian kernel packages (linux-image-.. linux-headers-...)
 
I use the upgrade button in the WEB GUI. Where can I do this? Thank you!

TASK OK
 
you need to use the command line / shell..
 
I don't understand what it has to do (linux-image- .. linux-headers -...) with Upgrade from WEB GUI and this response: "You are attempting to remove the meta-package 'proxmox-ve'!"

If they are related, what are the commands with which I can solve the problem?
 
yes and no. a restart is only needed after you upgrade the kernel..
