Hello every one.

I have installed and configured PRoxmox 6.2-4 created some vms in it. then I suddenly need to reboot the server , after system came back from reboot , I found that web interface for Proxmox is not accessible .

https://5x.xx.xx.xx:8006/ not being open.

here is what I can see in log

pveproxy[1882]: /etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.key: failed to load local private key (key_file or key) at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/APIServer/AnyEvent.pm l

so pveproxy service is not running.

I have read some forums and found that this is something related with hostname but I have done all changes in hostname nothing work

any suggestion advise or recomendation and solutions ?
 
some more information

[database] crit: DB load failed
[main] crit: memdb_open failed - unable to open database '/var/lib/pve-cluster/config.db'

Dear all,

I have lost the containers from gui after deleting the config.db file, I can see that /var/lib/vz/images/ are having all my containers images but in gui I do not see anything due to config.db is new.

no idea how to get those back anyone can help

Thank you
 
Just to add more information that I have old config.db-bak where I have having duplicate node issue . so may be that can help ?

any way forward please ?
