I cannot logon the web interface, but I can login to server thru SSH.

[firewood0188]

The server is working fine in serval months. Today, I want to login thru the web interface as usual. But it cannot. I login thru SSH and check the log and see this error message.


I search the info in this proxmox and try the following command.

~ systemctl restart pvedaemon.service
~ systemctl restart pveproxy.service

Still no luck.

Type "journalctl -u -pve-cluster"
I got this error.



How can I fix it?

I have ran into the perhaps the same issue after upgrading Firefox yesterday to 84.0 (from 83.0+build2-0ubuntu0.20.10.1 to 84.0+build3-0ubuntu0.20.10.1) on Ubuntu Groovy.

Logging in via the web UI results in the form getting stuck with "Please wait...":



Checking in the dev tools of browser, I can see that no request is made when I submit the form. From the console of the browser, I can see this error logged when I submit the form though:

Tried disabling all extensions in browser with no difference. It doesn't seem to be a server side issue, no errors are logged. I cleared the local data in my browser as well with no success.

It's working fine for me in Chrome though.

Also verified the same issue occurs for older Proxmox releases, I tested various releases from 5.2 upwards. The only difference is the line numbers of the file causing the error change. From 5.2:

Can you please also try to open a Private Browser by click Ctrl+Shift+P and try to login to Proxmox VE?

Confirmed that using private browser window works.

Hi,

Have you tried to reboot your PVE node? also please post the output of pveversion -v

Here is the output.

 

[Moayad]

@firewood0188
Please provide also the output of commands cat /etc/hosts and systemctl status pvedaemon.service


@6675636b
I guess the issue from one of the plugins on your Firefox browser!! or clearing the cache?

Please help to check.

Could you please try to upgrade your Proxmox VE to the latest version then reboot your node?

 

[firewood0188]

Could you please try to upgrade your Proxmox VE to the latest version then reboot your node?

I think I have upgraded to 6.3. But it's still not working.

 

[Moayad]

Hi,

Did you reboot your node after upgrading?

Still the same output of systemctl status pvedaemon.service command?

 

[firewood0188]

Hi,

Thank you for help.

After re-booted, I tried to login. But it could not log in thru the website.

 

[Moayad]

hi again,

Could you try the following commands:

systemctl stop pve-cluster
rm -f /var/lib/pve-cluster/.pmxcfs.lockfile
systemctl start pve-cluster

If that not help post the output of systemctl status pvedaemon pve-cluster pveproxy

 

[firewood0188]

Still not working. There is a database error.

 

[firewood0188]

Does anyone help me?

 

[Moayad]

Can you check your config.db

sqlite3 /var/lib/pve-cluster/config.db
analyze;
PRAGMA integrity_check;

if it's ok should print OK in SQLite, also try to restart pve-cluster and post the output of journalctl.

systemctl reset-failed pve-cluster
systemctl restart pve-cluster
journalctl -u pve-cluster --since "5min ago"

Hope that helps.

After tying SQL command, the error came out.

There is some error in the database.

As a follow up from this problem, it is related to this bug report:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1683299

As a work around, go to "about:config" and raise the limit for "dom.storage.default_quota" (I doubled it from the default 5mb to 10mb).

The pmxcfs database is malformed!
You will have to restore it from a backup!
If you do not have a backup your last resort will be trying recover the database (e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18259692/how-to-recover-a-corrupt-sqlite3-database/57872238#57872238)
Anyway make sure to do this without the pve-cluster.service running
