Hi all! I am quite new to proxmox. I am using it to learn about virtualization and then move to running dockers and k8s.

I have a new installation of PVE. Here is pveversion -v :
Code:

Now am stuck at certificate and signature file errors like following:

#1

Code:
root@pve ~# wget https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/site/README
--2020-11-16 12:41:53--  https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/site/README
ERROR: Cannot open directory /usr/ssl/certs.

ERROR: The certificate of ‘mirrors.edge.kernel.org’ is not trusted.
ERROR: The certificate of ‘mirrors.edge.kernel.org’ doesn't have a known issuer.

Trying to use wget without disabling SSL keeps having this issue. Not sure if I am using the command wrong, or the site doesn't support SSL or I haven't configured properly. I have tried this on two sites. Same happens.

Tried this according to StackEx post:
root@pve ~# ln -sT /usr/ssl /etc/ssl ln: failed to create symbolic link '/etc/ssl': File exists


#2

My main issue is that I don't see turnkey LXC templates on the GUI. Tried to update the certs according to posts on this forum.

root@pve ~# pveam update update failed - see /var/log/pveam.log for details

These are the logs:

Most other posts here and articles I got for certificate errors seem to relate to https hosting servers by obtaining CA certs for domain names. I am looking to setup domains locally (like this) once I start using locally hosted services, so is CA certificates something I need to do right now?

Not sure where I messed up since when I first installed PVE few months back I didn't have this issue. What am I missing here. Don't want to re-install for every error, then I won't learn anything.
 
Hi,

I guess you got network/DNS problems.

Please check your Network connection.
 
I guess you got network/DNS problems.

Please check your Network connection.
What makes you say that?? I am able to access the internet from PVE and I have now tried using 1.1.1.1 and a couple other services that works on my other devices.

I have set different DNS ( both v4 and v6) using the GUI and tried updating the system and the certificates but keep getting the same.

What is the proper command to pull the proper certificates needed? And is there a way to check if it is indeed a DNS issue?

This indicates something is not working with the network.
Do you use a proxy, IDS or does your DNS blacklist domains dynamic?

No proxy or IDS on the network. Just connected to a regular ISP modem.

I have tried using 1.1.1.1 which doesn't filter. I have now also tried with NextDNS with the logs enabled. All requests from PVE was responded including releases.turnkeylinux.org. Does it mean anything that I am able to ping to this domain too.

This seems to be more of an issus with verification of the certificates. Is it significant that connection to port 443 specifically fails and could the 500 status an actual response from the server or just a placeholder? If it is an actual response doesn't that mean that the server was reached by PVE and thus DNS and the network works fine?
