My prox mox 1.3 just crashed. So i downloaded the latest version 1.7 and when I tried to put the same template that was on my 1.3 it tells me the name format is wrong. Is there any suggestion as how to resolve this. This is the file name wifigator-enterprise-5.0.3.tar. I had to removew the gz because it was being automatically added on by Prox Mox.

Thanks in advance

Hi,
use the naming convention like this: debian-5.0-standard_5.0-1_i386.tar.gz (e.g. wifigator-enterprise_5.0.3_i386.tar.gz should work)

Thanks for the reply, but as it turns out I ended up receiving the latest version of that template and it is named correctly. But when I attemt to creat the VM I get this message

Hi,
on the proxmox-node (console or ssh).

With the t-flag tar shows the content of the tar-file. If the tar-file are not in gzip format (but with z-flag requested) you will get an error. In this case simply gzip the file:
Code: 
mv /var/lib/vz/template/cache/ubuntu-8.04-chilliwave.ng.639_8.04-1_i386.tar.gz /var/lib/vz/template/cache/ubuntu-8.04-chilliwave.ng.639_8.04-1_i386.tar
gzip /var/lib/vz/template/cache/ubuntu-8.04-chilliwave.ng.639_8.04-1_i386.tar

Thanks udo

Just got back to the computer, had to do an install. But I did get it working by erasing the copy of the template that was on my pc, and downloading it again. I guess I had a corrupted download.

and again thanks
