Hello,

I've 2 servers with Proxmox not modified hosted and installed by OVH. I never had a problem, but for several days I can not update these 2 servers.

The problem is witch the package pve-manager, all other package are updated :

Hi

I had this problem with the pre-install on few of my servers

To fix it:

cd /var/lib/dpkg/info/
rm pve-manager.preinst

Then re-run the update command

It seemed to work for myself but give it a try

Hi Simon,

Thank you for your reply, but I don't have this file

ls -al pve-manager.preinst
ls: cannot access pve-manager.preinst: No such file or directory

Another idea ? Thank you
