[SOLVED] Powerdown VM gets timeout

[Daraiko]

I have created a VM with the proxmox iso to do some tests
but every time i press "shutdown" i get the following error:

TASK ERROR: VM quit/powerdown failed - got timeout

i have tried to destroy and recreate it and still same error.

Edit: Thank-you Tom

you need to allow anonymous ACPI shutdown in your guests. what guest OS do you run?

Thanks for the reply Tom

I used the proxmox 2.1 ISO from proxmox.com

I asked about the guest OS. so you run Proxmox VE inside Proxmox VE?

Hi,

Yes that is correct, not for running Virtual Machines! Simply for testing

install acpid (aptitude install acpid).
