SOLVED: after Update 7to8: WARN: unexpected running and installed kernel '6.8.8-2-pve'

[ThomasH]

Hi everyone,

I updated to Mail Gateway 8.1.2 but pmg7to8 gives still following warning:

WARN: unexpected running and installed kernel '6.8.8-2-pve'

All solutions I found belonged to pve, but not the mailcleaner

A "proxmox-boot-tool kernel list" shows

Manually selected kernels:
None.

Automatically selected kernels:
5.15.158-1-pve
6.8.8-2-pve
root@mail:~# apt list pve-kernel-* --installed
Listing... Done
pve-kernel-5.13.19-1-pve/now 5.13.19-3 amd64 [installed,local]
pve-kernel-5.13.19-6-pve/now 5.13.19-15 amd64 [installed,local]
pve-kernel-5.13/now 7.1-9 all [installed,local]
pve-kernel-5.15.158-1-pve/now 5.15.158-1 amd64 [installed,local]
pve-kernel-5.15/now 7.4-14 all [installed,local]

How can I fix this?

Thank you,
Thomas

This seems to be an issue with the pmg7to8 migration script not recognizing the current 6.8 kernel as ok and current.
The same issue has been fixed for pve7to8, but the change did not make it yet to pmg7to8.

Running kernel 6.8.8-2-pve is ok for PMG 8!

apt list pve-kernel-* --installed

keep in mind that the kernel packages are now called proxmox-kernel instead of pve-kernel


In any case - Thanks for the report!!

I have to thank YOU for telling us, that this is a recognizing error of pmg7to8!

We just commited a fix for this:

so others will not run into the bogus warning as well

And now the same for Linux 6.8.8-3-pve (2024-07-16T16:16Z)
It looks like everything is ok.
