My root drive is full but not really? Unable to run updates. What have I done wrong ? :)

Hello,
I love proxmox and everything your doing.
I have been using proxmox for many years now with almost no problems. I have fixed most issues. I have had the same problem and found a solution but my google notes were deleted with many of my docs. When I installed under 10GB used and not much growth. Du -h shows 900G under /mnt and 889G for root that is only 11G the system. Why is my root drive showing 87G when only 11G from root du -h / and /mnt? Here is my apt upgrade error You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/.? In the past I updated my system and could not log back in after reboot when she said not full. Had to boot with Gparted to expand my root drive to get her working 2 times in the past. Do not want to get there again. Just want things to work the way they should.

Ncdu showed similar shows mnt in over 90%.


I also have this error and unable to find a working resolve after weeks. The repository 'https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye InRelease' is not signed.


Tried researching for weeks trying everything suggest nothing works proxmox 5 on other hardware. I just installed proxmox 7 free the 1 year ago on new hardware. I am only running 2 VMs lightly nas and nextcloud. Will be bringing in a couple others once I get the proxmox updates and root problems fixed.


Am also having problems importing vmdk files. Have researched found a fix years ago but the same situation. Lost the way to get to work,

Please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Any help would greatly appreciate.

Have a wonderful day,

Tony

Your message would be much more readable if you used CODE tags

/dev/nvme0n1p3 92G 87G 254M 100% /

this says that you have your root device at 92G size, 87G is used and 254M is free

When you use "du" by default it will cross disk boundaries and sum all linked physical devices. To limit it to just one, ie "/":

du -h -x -d1 /

I also have this error and unable to find a working resolve after weeks. The repository 'https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye InRelease' is not signed.

These search keywords "proxmox repository not signed" lead to this helpful thread that should address your issue:
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/unable-to-apt-get-update-with-no-subscription-repo.64737/

Am also having problems importing vmdk files. Have researched found a fix years ago but the same situation. Lost the way to get to work,

you should open a separate thread and include commands, errors, outputs and other useful details.
