Install proxmox on debian wheezy. When trying to edit network settings from web-console I get warning message:
Parameter verification failed. (400)
comments: property is missing and it is not optional

Its fresh installation, but I cant edit any network devices or bridges. Also I cant create new devices.

Since it's a fresh installation, might it be an idea to (re)install Proxmox from the ISO provided in stead of installing Proxmox yourself onto a previously installed Debian?

The ISO is also based on Debian, so should be easy to deploy whatever you'd like to deploy afterwards.

First-I dont want to use LVM that proxmox installation create.
Second-In debian install I can create software raid from graphics installation,and it's more simple than trying to transfer already installed proxmox on software raid.
And, yeah I know that proxmox dont support software raid.
 
Hi,
proxmox-ve use bridges for the network - to bind VMs/CTs in briged mode to the interfaces. It's like an network hub.

vmbr0 is used for clustercommunication and so on - other briges can you named (the number) like you want - like vmbr150 for vlan 150.

An working interface-file looks like this:
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address 192.168.144.11
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.144.254
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

Well, I realized that I can manually manage network devices through the terminal. But still, why can not I do it through the web console? What does this error mean - Parameter verification failed. (400)
comments: property is missing and it is not optional
? Maybe it's something with permissions?
 
pve-manager: 3.1-43 (running version: 3.1-43/1d4b0dfb) Update

The problem disappeared. All network settings are edited without problems. Thank you!

PS Another question. When I installed proxmox on Debian I chose last available kernel: 3.10.0-1-pve, but than I see that Proxmox VE 3.1 ISO Installer lastVersion: 3.1-93bf03d4-8 using kernel proxmox-ve-2.6.32. This has implications in terms of stability?

Hi,
stability? No!
2.6.32 support OpenVz which 3.10. don't (yet). Redhat 7 will use 3.10 later and proxmox used an redhat based kernel.

Parameter verification failed. (400)

type: property is missing and it is not optional

Is there any fix for this?

Thank you,

It would be more interesting to see the contents of /etc/network/interfaces.


this is the content of my /etc/network/interfaces

# network interface settings
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address X.X.X.X
netmask 255.X.X.X
gateway X.X.X.X
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0

auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet manual
bridge_ports none
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0

I can't add a third vmbr inteface.
