400 Parameter verification failed. boot: value does not match the regex pattern

[Possible]

Hello,

I have installed a fresh installation of proxmox. Now i want to add the following CT:

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/whiskerz007/proxmox_hassos_install/raw/master/install.sh)"

When creating the VM, i am getting this error:

Creating VM...
400 Parameter verification failed.

qm set <vmid> [OPTIONS]

Did a full apt update and a apt upgrade.

Reading package lists... Done

What can be the problem?

your sources list does not have an entry for a PVE repository - if you have a subscription add the enterprise repository - if not the pve-no-subscription - see:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_Repositories

afterwards do a update+full-upgrade - my guess is that the change of the handling of the boot-parameter was not yet merged in PVE 6.2 - and that's the reason for the error...

I hope this helps!

I have changed /etc/apt/source.list into

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster main contrib
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main contrib

But this didnt work.


In /etc/apt/sources.list.d i have:

#deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-enterprise

But this didnt work.

how did it not work? - please paste the output of `apt update` and `apt full-upgrade` (as text in code - tags)

Sorry it worked!

I thought i needed to do an apt-get upgrade and not a full upgrade

Thanks!

I thought i needed to do an apt-get upgrade and not a full upgrade

with PVE (all proxmox distributions) - always use `apt full-upgrade` (it's one of the most common causes of errors to just run apt upgrade)

Glad that worked - Please mark the thread as 'SOLVED'
