Hello,

I have had this problem for a few days when I try to use the noVNC console.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

try opening novnc in a seperate window (top right console button) and force refresh
or delete the browser cache
 
Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately, even when i open noVNC in a new Tab, the issue still occurs.
 
did you already clear the browser cache?
if yes, what does 'pveversion -v' show?
 
Yes. I already tried it an also use other Browser and other PCs.
The problem is still there.

pveversion -v

As it works on all other places, something on your side must be different. Find it out!

Should i upload the whole "/novnc" folder again?
So in this case i could install a fresh proxmox an another node and just copy the folder?
Could this work?
 
It seems like the novnc-pve package is not installed correctly or was somehow modified?

I have modified only 2 files (but already a few days ago). The problem is since 2 days.

I have reinstalled the package but the files are still missing.
 
Which files did you modify? It seems like there are missing files in /usr/share/novnc-pve but they should come back after the package reinstall.

Maybe you can try restarting pveproxy?

If all else fails, I guess you can try this.

So you manually modify your host config and then you ask the Community why its stops working? really?
