Proxmox 3.1 to 3.2 : GUI "Upgrade" button disabled

[mcmyst]

Hello, As mentionned in the wiki: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Downloads#Update_a_running_Proxmox_Virtual_Environment_3.x_to_latest_3.2 "All updates can be applied via GUI or via CLI" But when I go to "Update" the "Upgrade" button is disabled. The "Refresh" button is enabled and is not given any errors:

Do you have a valid subscription? If not, you need to use the pve-no-subscription reposiotory.

see: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_repositories

Yes the 3 servers of the cluster have valid KEY.

please provide the output of:

> pveversion -v (in a easy readable format)

and make sure that you reload the browser page (empty cache).

I have found the problem, I was not logged as root.

Thanks for help !

Hi,

I have the exact same problem. But the problem is I needed to disable root and created another admin user because I have my proxmox running on online.net and I've detected root password hacking attemps.
Can this be enabled to another with admin rights somehow ?

Thanks

No, this is restricted to the root user. But you can also do it on the command line using apt-get.

No big deal.. That's the way I've been doing it.
But in the future proxmox might want to take under consideration that having root disable is a security best practice.
I have my server running on online.net for many months and it's available to all Internet. So all security best practices need to be applied and disabling root it number 1.

I notice a strange IP making a brute force password attack over the root user password.
Thank's god proxmox syslog is a very useful to monitor such situations.

Thanks
