Hello all, I have several LXC containers based on Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla) that I need to update now that they have gone end of life. I went to the Proxmox Gui and tried to download the new template via the gui and it didn't work. The dialog box opens and in the "Status" tab I see an overlay with a spinning progress icon and this text:

Method 'GET /nodes/proxmox/tasks/UPID:proxmox:0033A3D5:1827CE05:62B5CCDC:download:system/ubuntu-21.10-standard_21.10-1_amd64.tar.zst:root@pam:/status' not implemented (501)

So, since this wasn't working I tried it from a terminal. I ran pveam update and then this:

root@proxmox:/# pveam download local system/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst downloading http://download.proxmox.com/images/system/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst to /var/lib/vz/template/cache/system/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst could not cleanup temporary file: No such file or directory at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Tools.pm line 1951. download failed: /var/lib/vz/template/cache/system/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst.tmp.3437099: No such file or directory

I manually downloaded the file then uploaded and got this error:

Error 400: Parameter verification failed.
filename: wrong file extension

Where am I going wrong?
