No iso-file shown when attempting to create CT

[produn23]

Currently I have 5 CTs and 2 VMs running. All CTs were created based on an ubuntu-server iso file, which I uploaded into local storage (local pve) under ISO Images.
Now it happend, when I tried to create another Container, in step 2 of the dialog (Tab 'Template'), I cannot choose the iso file, because it does not show up. Under "storage" it says "local", but when I click the little arrow under "template", an empty table is shown. No way to select the the iso file.
I am stuck at this point. I deletetd the iso file and uploaded it again. No change.

iso file in local:



No template available:


Must be trivial, but I have no idea for the moment...any ideas?
Using PVE 8.0.4

Hi,
to create containers, you will have to use container templates, not iso files. You can update and get a list of available container templates by running pveam update && pveam available, the ubuntu template should be available.

If you want to install using this iso, create a VM instead.

wrong, CT are not created from an .iso

Oh, well, I had the feeling it might be this kind of solution. Of course I did my running CTs with Templates, but for some reason I deleted those templates (cannot remember why, maybe kind of cleanup), and I didnt remember this fact. Sorry for asking, have a nice day ;-)

No worries, glad if this is solved for you!
