I'm running proxmox 8.0.4 on an macpro (trashcan 2013).
Containers run great.
when I try to start a VM no matter if it's debian or ubuntu ( server or desktop) the VM resets itself with in 5 minutes.

Hi,

Did you check the syslog in the Proxmox VE and the VM looking for anything interesting?
 
This what I found, not sure why it's reseting.
I can't figure out why this is happening.

Have you checked the corn job in your Proxmox VE server, if there is anything, do the qm restart? Can you also please attach the `dmesg` output? Additionally, I would check the memory usage on your Proxmox VE server.

Seems you're not the only one. Maybe Proxmox should have a FAQ about this: if your VM resets in 5-6 minutes, try to remember if you installed monitoring tools that reset your VM every 5-6 minutes.

I mean, the author states on the page:
Virtual machines without the QEMU guest agent installed must be excluded.
Click to expand...
and:
Prior to generating any new CT/VM not found in this repository, it's necessary to halt Proxmox VE Monitor-All by running systemctl stop ping-instances.
Click to expand...
But it is also nothing new, that people do not (completely) read things or understand them and do not care further.

Imho, this script is kinda a newbie trap...
