'ipcc_send_rec failed' on a non-cluster installation

[nasenmann72]

Hi,

I do not run a cluster, but I get 'ipcc_send_rec failed: Connection refused' error messages in /var/log/sylsog.
What I did: I 'cloned' (created LVM volumes and rsynced the volumes) the PVE Installation to an new hard disk. The systems boots up properly, but PVE is not running.

/etc/pve# pveversion -v

Make sure /etc/pve is empty (that is a mount point for the pve configuration file system). If that directory contains files the filesystem does not start -try with:

# service pve-cluster start

Note: The name is a bit confusing because it is needed even if you do not run a cluster.

I checked /etc/pve, but it's definitly not a mounted directory. To where gets it normaly mounted?

If I try to start the cluster serice, I get:

service pve-cluster start
Starting pve cluster filesystem : pve-clusterfuse: mountpoint is not empty
fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
[main] crit: fuse_mount error: No such file or directory
[main] notice: exit proxmox configuration filesystem (-1)
 (warning).

Ok, solved it. I found out that /etc/pve is created from the SQLite database /var/lib/pve-cluster/config.db. There was an old lock file, which I deleted, cleaned /etc/pve, rebooted the machine and the whole thing is fine again.

Thx.

How can I mark this thread as solved?
