OpenVZ templates

Hi,

Just to confirm, as I tested this. The process is very simple and these pre-created templates from the OpenVZ download site do indeed work 'perfectly well' with ProxVE. (see below).

Hope this helps,

-------paste-----------
Login as root via SSH to your ProxVE host

CD to directory where OpenVZ template cache tar.gz files are stored

Download via WGET the desired template

cd /var/lib/vz/template/cache
wget http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/ubuntu-7.10-x86.tar.gz


Capture of what we see:



prox1:/var/lib/vz/template/cache# wget http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/ubuntu-7.10-x86.tar.gz

(Note on this ProxVE host I had previously downloaded via ProxVE web interface, the templates for CentOS 5 and Debian-Wordpress; it is only the ubuntu template just downloaded now manually / directly via wget)



Once this is complete, you will see the new template listed as an option in the drop-box when you "create" a "Container - OpenVZ" based Virtual Host. I did create a vhost with the ubuntu template and it work fine / normally / as expected.
 
I follow the steps but I don't have luck. Can somebody give me a hand?

I use debian
Linux 2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 19 23:15:49 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

this is not a Proxmox system, we do not have 2.6.26. so we cannot help as you do not use our system.
 
I use proxmox ...

I can't add openvz templates :/

either you post wrong info (you are using Linux 2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64) or you do not use our system.

pls tell the whole story, otherwise no one can help.
