Hi veryone,

i updated today from kernel 5.15.19-2 to kernel PVE 5.15.27-1, after the update i restarted as usual and now I can´t login anymore and the other node shows this node with "?" only.
The syslog says "proxy detected vanished client connection". Is there any fix for that?

Hello,

May you try to restart the following services?:

Bash:
systemctl restart pvedaemon
systemctl restart pvestatd
systemctl restart pve-manager
systemctl restart pve-cluster
 
I cant restart pve-manager, but the Node is up and running somehow the GUI now shows this error:
Code:
Error Connection error 596: tls_process_server_certificate: certificate verify failed

systemctl restart pve-manager
Code:
systemctl restart pve-manager
Failed to start pve-manager.service: Operation refused, unit pve-guests.service may be requested by dependency only (it is configured to refuse manual start/stop).
 
after a pvecm updatecerts the error disappeared but im back to the old error:

Node is up and green but I cant check the status of the VM/Storage:

Code:
communication failure (0)

i also cannot access the Syslog Page/Update or any other page related to the host node. Its always Communcation failure.
 
Hi,

Did you update the certificates using pvecm updatecerts --force command?

What is the output of the following commands:

Bash:
pvecm status
mount | grep /etc/pve
 
Did you update the certificates using pvecm updatecerts --force command?
yes

Code:

Please try to restart the pveproxy service using: systemctl restart pveproxy if that not help, please provide us with Syslog for pveproxy and pve-cluster services

I see now when the problem appears:
If I reboot the Node everything is fine UNTIL i Click on on of the storages markes with a ?, then everythings starts loading and i get a communcation error.
Where I can see more information about it ?
Its a NAS mounted via iSCSI, no problems so far with it on the other node.

Did you see any other error message in the Syslog when you click on storage?

Have you checked from the hosts file on both nodes /etc/hosts?

can you update the cert again on one node let's say Nuc01 and restart the pveproxy service?

1. No, its just loading until I get communcation failure

2. Yes, it looks totally normal and fine for me:

Code:
cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
172.16.24.100 Nuc01.fritz.box Nuc01

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost
172.16.24.101   PiMox01.fritz.box PiMox01

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

Code:
pvecm updatecerts --force
(re)generate node files
generate new node certificate
merge authorized SSH keys and known hosts
root@Nuc01:/etc/pve# systemctl restart pveproxy.service

==> Same Issue
 
i restarted the NAS to ensure everything is OK on this site.
Syslog just shows:
Code:
Mar 18 15:16:51 Nuc01 pmxcfs[1819]: [status] notice: received log
Mar 18 15:17:01 Nuc01 CRON[7027]: (root) CMD (   cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)

Mar 18 15:18:26 Nuc01 pveproxy[2793]: proxy detected vanished client connection
Mar 18 15:20:26 Nuc01 pveproxy[2794]: proxy detected vanished client connection

The GUI stays on:
Connection failure (0)
later then:
connection timeout (595)
