Hi there.
Newbie here.
Got 3 VM’s up and running.
And after thinkering no GUI.
SSH works. And i see my VM’s working.
(Home assistant and openmedia vault)

There’s enough free space on the disks AND the ram memory.

What status checks can i SSH to see where it goes wrong?

Empty-ing browser cache and private tabs also doesn’t solve it.

Thnx
 
Hi,

what exactly does not work w.r.t the web interface? Is it not reachable? Does the login always fail?

You can start troubleshooting by checking the service status (systemctl status pveproxy.service) and the system log (journalctl -b -u pveproxy.service) - that should probably indicate what is going wrong.

sounds like a problem with your web browser then.
What browser are you using? And on what OS? Have you tried looking in the browser console for any obvious errors?
 
hi
on my phone browsers (safari and firefox) there's a simplified GUI. just the one i used to.

on my other pc (macbook) i got the same results, blanc screen, as on my fixed pc.

hi,
just did a clean install on a other barebone i had here.

with this one i have a gui interface on the browser.

i thing something went wrong while fooling around in the " proxmoxlib.js "
(getting rid of the enterprise welcoming message)
 
You can use apt reinstall -y proxmox-widget-toolkit to reinstall a clean version.

Modifying system files without knowing exactly what it does will result in problems - there are lots of other threads already about this on the forum.

Great!

Please just mark the thread as SOLVED by editing the first post, there should be a dropdown near the title. This helps others with the same problem to find this thread more easily :)
