I'm using x cv4pve-api-php to communicate with the api
I'm trying to reset the password of a vm using the proxmox API.
When I do this command I get the API response like:
I went to vm but the password is not changed. So I tried the following commands to check if communication to the VM was working and yes it was.
Then I changed the password through the proxmox shell with the following command and the password is changed:
I tried to change the username to root and with that user the error message appears.
I can't understand why this happened since the root user does not exist in the vm's OS.
If anyone can help I would be grateful. Thanks
