There are two typed of users. Proxmox users and PAM users (these are the normal linux users). Did you created the right type of user?
 
Dont think i did. Do i have to create a new user in the terminal? if so do i also have to add it to a group or can i add it too the pam after?
 
If I remember right I created the linux user using command line adduser and then added them as PAM users in the PVE WebUI.
 
First somehow managed to bricked my root login and had to completely change my grub to login in a password less root :/
