EDIT2: nevermind got it back to work ;)

EDIT: Found the cause... Me..
I misread the instructions and followed the 1.1 to 1.2 instructions instead of 1.x to 1.1....
Anyway to undo what i did ?
I did a reboot and the vpn still comes up but most of the software (like apache2) is failing to load..
Over the vpn i still have access to kdm/nomachine so that is starting normally

Hi All, First of all thanks for a wonderfull piece of software!!!

I ran into mayor problem..
Tried to do an upgrade from 1.0 to 1.1

Followed the instructions here:
http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Downloads#Proxmox_Virtual_Environment_1.0_.28ISO_Image.29

I did all of the steps, however it fails with
After this operation, 489MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (1) on debconf

After that nothing wants to run anymore..
Am connected still over a vpn to the server and i do not even dare to close that connection.. I am about 2300km away from this server ;)

First install debconf manually with dpkg. Then try again.
Code:
wget http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/debconf/debconf_1.5.11etch2_all.deb
wget http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/debconf/debconf-i18n_1.5.11etch2_all.deb
dpkg -i debconf_1.5.11etch2_all.deb debconf-i18n_1.5.11etch2_all.deb
 
Thanks dietmar,

Tried that last night, it worked, everything started..
Until i did a reboot and now no more connection to the machine at all..
Perhaps its waiting on user input..

Should have left it ;)

thanks and greets
