Hi,

first of all, I'am Running Proxmox virtualized in Hyper-V at the Moment since i just started looking into it before i run i on real Hardware. So iam basically just evaluating if it is the right choice for my organization, and iam quite pleased till now.
So my Main System had a BSOD and after a restart the Web-Interface is not reachable. I looked up if the Services are running and got this result:

Code:
root@proxmox2:~# systemctl | grep pve
  etc-pve.mount           loaded active mounted   /etc/pve
  pve-cluster.service     loaded active running   The Proxmox VE cluster filesystem
  pve-firewall.service    loaded active running   Proxmox VE firewall
  pve-ha-crm.service      loaded active running   PVE Cluster Ressource Manager Daemon
  pve-ha-lrm.service      loaded active running   PVE Local HA Ressource Manager Daemon
  pve-manager.service     loaded active exited    PVE VM Manager
  pvebanner.service       loaded active exited    Proxmox VE Login Banner
  pvedaemon.service       loaded active running   PVE API Daemon
  pvefw-logger.service    loaded active running   Proxmox VE firewall logger
  pvenetcommit.service    loaded active exited    Commit Proxmox VE network changes
  pveproxy.service        loaded active running   PVE API Proxy Server
  pvestatd.service        loaded active running   PVE Status Daemon
  dev-pve-swap.swap       loaded active active    /dev/pve/swap

As far as i remember the Output while everything was working fine at least pve-manager and was running.
The log doesn't give me anything unusual:

The Error is perfectly reproducable. It already happend to me yesterday but i thought i messed to much with the configuration. So i just reinstalled. And there was a second Proxmox Maschine running this time and its not working there ether.

If iam just to stupid to get this Services running again please tell me. I am not yet used to systemd since i wasn't using Linux for the last 5 years.

Thanks i advance


EDIT:
btw the System is completely updated and i followed the unstructions for updating the apt sources for a no-subscription Installation:
Code:
root@proxmox2:~# uname -r
4.4.44-1-pve
root@proxmox2:~# uname -v
#1 SMP PVE 4.4.44-84 (Thu, 9 Mar 2017 12:06:34 +0100)
Code:
root@proxmox2:~# more /etc/apt/sources.list
deb [censored] jessie main contrib

# security updates
deb [censored] jessie/updates main contrib
# backports
deb [censored] jessie-backports main contrib

deb [censored] jessie pve-no-subscription

root@proxmox2:~# more /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list
# deb [censored] jessie pve-enterprise

I needed to censore the URLs since iam a new user and therefor not allowed to post links

Hi,

general it is not supported to run a Hypervisor in a Hypervisor.
 
are you sure you have all latest packages? post the output of:

> pveversion -v
 
an additional comment:

the webinterface runs from the service pveproxy not pve-manager (which is only a meta service)

so you should check the status with
Code:
systemctl status pveproxy

also you should check if any process listens on the port with
Code:
ss -tlp | grep 8006

also maybe the pveproxy log has something to show

Code:
cat /var/log/pveproxy/access.log

cat /var/log/pveproxy/access.log doesn't show anything

Thanks for your help. However i grabbed two older Servers on friday and decided i'll go to real Hardware for testing.
It still would be interessting what the matter is.
