hello,
i'm a french user of proxmox 5 installed on a hp microserver.
all worked fine but now i can't access to the web administration via ip:8006.

i can only access via ssh.
i don't have done something special.
i've rebooted the server but it's the same.

firefox says it can't made the connection and chromium connexion refused.

i don't know what to verify and i would like some help.
thanks
 
SSH is good. You can repair a lot of stuff with SSH access. ;-)
Please be aware that I may be a Linux veteran, but am a Proxmox Newbie, so there may be other best practices.

1) Check PVE proxy is running

> ps aux | grep pveproxy

if no,

> systemctl restart pveproxy

and you will probably see an error.

2) if yes, make sure you have "lsof" installed

> lsof | grep 8006

This should show pveproxy attached to port 8006

---

If both of these things work, it means you or someone probably turned on some kind of firewall.
Check these first, report, then we'll see in which direction to go.
