Hi, I apologize in advance if my English is not good.
I have a problem with my proxmox server.
The problem started when one of the VMs crashed and I couldn't shutdown it via Pve GUI.
So I rebooted the Proxmox Server.

The problem that occurred is that currently the PVE GUI cannot be accessed. PVE can only be accessed via SSH.

I have tried following the instructions from this thread https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/need-help-to-repair-my-pve-cluster-config-db.115440/

When running the command:
Code:
journalctl -b -u pve-cluster
I got this :
Code:
root@ve:/home# journalctl -b -u pve-cluster

and also on the command
Code:
sqlite3 /var/lib/pve-cluster/config.db 'SELECT inode,parent,mtime,type,name FROM tree WHERE name = "authorized_keys"'
I get this:
Error: in prepare, no such table: tree


I have tried searching in other threads but have not found a solution.

I hope there is a Proxmox staff or anyone who can help me with my problem.
I would like to thank you in advance.
