Hi, I installed a proxmox server 1 month ago and everything looked fine until yesterday when I rebooted it. Since that time, the web admin interface is blank. I made an upgrade using apt-get dist-upgrade this morning for the same result (I did not restart the proxmox server after the upgrade as this server is a single one and VM running on it are in production ...).
If someone have a suggestion, do not hesitate.

Here is the result of pveversion -v :

Which browser do you use and which version of it?
 
Hi, I tried different web browsers (Firefox 105.0.1 , Opera 91.0.4516.20 and Microsoft Edge) on different OS (Ubuntu and Windows10). The trick is that I have 2 other Proxmox servers which are in the same version and it works fine for them. The diference is only the constructors (DELL and HP).
I don't have for now a commercial Support Subscription but I'm thinking about it: I'm trying Proxmox with the aim to change all our Xen servers for Proxmox.
 
Do you get the same blank page if you open the PVE GUI in a new private session without any extensions?

Can you provide the output of systemctl status pvedaemon.service and systemctl status pveproxy.service?
 
Thanks for your help. I already tried in a private session and it changed nothing. Here are the outputs asked:

Those look good. And the update ran without any errors?
What do you get when you run `apt update` and `apt -f install`?


Do you see anything when you load the GUI with the debug console (F12) active?
 
I get normal message as far as I guess:

Code:
apt update
