[SOLVED] Cant access console via web

[joem]

Hi everyone,
since a few days, I can't access the console of CT/VMs through the web GUI.
When trying to access a CTs console, in the cluster log I'm getting the following error:
end task UPID:proxmox:00000C81:0001A318:5EF5C457:vncproxy:107:root@pam: command '/usr/bin/termproxy 5902 --path /vms/107 --perm VM.Console -- /usr/bin/dtach -A /var/run/dtach/vzctlconsole107 -r winch -z lxc-console -n 107 -e -1' failed: exit code 4

While trying to access the shell I get:
end task UPID:proxmox:00001A9F:00005D33:5EF5C115:vncshell::root@pam: command '/usr/bin/termproxy 5900 --path /nodes/proxmox --perm Sys.Console -- /bin/login -f root' failed: exit code 4

As you can see, the console seems like it is scaled. The scroll bar on the right seems off.

Hi,

Did you tried a different browser without plugins additional?

 

[joem]

I tried incognito on the same machine, no joy.
But now that you're saying, I've tested the browser in a VM and it is working. The only thing it could mess up things is my antivirus/firewall = eset.
Tried disabling it, but it didn't help. I'm going for some manual settings and I'll report back if I managed to find a solution for eset.
