Installation of proxmox-ve-2.6.32 on Debian Squeeze

[uttam]

I have been trying to install to install proxmox-ve-2.6.32 on Debian Squeeze and have the following observation:

- Clean installation of Debian Squeeze
- Configured /etc/hosts with correct fqdn
- "aptitude install vzctl" gives no error
- "aptitude install proxmox-ve-2.6.32" ends with the following error:
=======

Any pointer would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance.

looks like a screwup in you apt dependencies.
try this
sudo dpkg --configure --pending
and see what it tells you to fix.

I have installed Proxmox several times on top of Debian Squeeze by following this. There are sometimes some other dependencies I need to solve.

Thank you friend.

Thankyou friend. I was able to recreate the problem the the issue observed was unconfigured /etc/hosts file.
The line:
127.0.1.1 hostname.domain.com hostname
needs to be changed to:
ip.of.the.server hostname.domain.com hostname
