whenever i issue a pct comand I get

setlogsock(): type='unix': path not available at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/SafeSyslog.pm line 38.

Is there a path missing somewhere? This was after a recent upgrade to latest.
 
Please post your:

> pveversion -v
 
note that the container command (and container) seem to behave properly, just get this warning.

hmm - did you by any chance change anything about your (r)syslog or journald configuration?
does '/dev/log' exist? (and is a socket writable by all (could be a symlink pointing somewhere so check with ls -l and follow the chain)

Hope this helps!
