Does the log something say about your weblogin?

Here is my syslog


Feb 12 07:17:01 sd4 /USR/SBIN/CRON[360077]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/rtm/bin/rtm 58 > /dev/null 2> /dev/null)
Feb 12 07:17:01 sd4 /USR/SBIN/CRON[360078]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)
Feb 12 07:18:01 sd4 /USR/SBIN/CRON[360222]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/rtm/bin/rtm 58 > /dev/null 2> /dev/null)


Nothing special than the above.

I run this command
cat /var/log/syslog
 
hmm... we had the same problem on pve3 for long time ago. Us workaround was to restart the pveproxy. Then the log was working again for a while. After a time the probleme was gone away. We have unfortunately never found out what caused the error.

Can you restart the pverproxy, reload the webinterface without cache and test it again?

Any Chance your initial issue happened after an update ?

If so, try this:

Hi,
Can you try to reload the page first with empty browser cache (Shift + F5 or CTRL + R should do this).

If that does not help please post the output of
Code:
systemctl status pve-manager
 
+1 for me, I too can't login to the webinterface...

I'm on the latest version and am currently logged in via SSH but can't get a hold to the webIF! :-(

Already restarted pveproxy & pvestatd...

Try with this,
aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade.. it could help...
 
I noticed that if you set your password with the character € inside, you can not login via web interface.

I fix it just by the next commands

pvecm expected 1
pvecm updatecerts
systemctl restart pvedaemon pveproxy
systemctl restart pve-cluster
systemctl restart corosync

then flush your cache browser and reload it
 
Greetings, I just installed Promox and am unable to log into the web ui from any browser. Once I input the server up 192.x.x.x.:8006 it just clocks. I have performed all the above and more but to no avail. Able to log in via ssh, the ip add when I run ip a is different then the one on the console after boot up. Please advise

On a hunch, try to enter it completely with the https://w.x.y.z:8006 as it is possible that the browser tries to establish a normal http connection which won't work.
