Lost SSH, and WebUI access to Proxmox, but all VMs still working and accessible.

[darthanubis]

Luckily my Proxmox server is on site. I have not found a thread relating to losing SSH. I found a thread concerning losing WebUI, but not ssh. I can't even ping,, Proxmox. Which leads me to believe it is my network. Proxmox has a static IP of 192.168.0.4, the rest of the network is 192.168.0.100-200. The gateway is 192.168.0.3. I even have a switch at 192.168.0.5. All pingable except the PM server? I'd just hate to bring down the running VMs because of this. Even changing the IP address, I can only ping the gateway.

Reboot

After changing my static ip in /etc/network/interfaces, which still does not change the IP Proxmox shows upon boot, I noticed NFS errors. I think this all started to happen after I added and removed a second node. Anyhow, I removed portmap, which removed nfs-common and pve-manager. I removed the latest kernel -14. I reinstalled portmap, nfs-common. The NFS errors went away. I'm able to get back into the GUI, and SSH. But pve-manager will not finish installing.

Errors were encountered while processing:
pve-manager
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install. Trying to recover:
Setting up pve-manager (2.1-14) ...

update-rc.d: error: insserv rejected the script header
dpkg: error processing pve-manager (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
pve-manager

Now I'm stuck.

I've ironed out my IP issues. Now I just need to get pve-manager properly configured.

It's fixed now. As shown above I installed vzctl. After seeing this :vzctl: not correctly installed.

Thank you for the hint. It was driving me mad.

Hi
I have the same error here.
SSH access and WebGUI on the host is not working, but the VMs are still running. Restarting and updating the packages did not help.

Notice this as well over the past couple of days... but then way beyond that I have had issues with data between nodes being synced and going into panic during ssh communications between them. I'm just wondering if the cause might be openssh and openssl, since ours appear to be somewhat dated, but this might be limited to the debian repo.
