Proxmox 7.0-9 Web UI unable to launch GUI Windows

[Anguskon]

Hello,

I have just upgraded to proxmox 7 (from 6.4.3) and my WUI (Web UI) is not functioning properly. I can console without issue, view logs without issue. However whenever I try to Create a new VM, container, or edit VM properties it doesn't work. It launches what looks like a minimized window but freezes the Web UI and I have to refresh the page to get any control back.

I have tried accessing the WUI multiple ways, all of them have the same exact issue.

• Windows 10
  • Chrome and Edgium
  • Internet Explorer (ya I know)
  • Firefox
• Mac OS
  • Safari
  • Chrome

I've also rebooted the server and restarted the pveproxy service.

Here is what it looks like whenever I try to Create a VM, container, or edit properties of a device. However the logs window launches without issue.

Hi,

could you please post your package versions pveversion -v and maybe check in the developer console (F12) if any errors are displayed during the not working interactions?

Hi,

i experienced something similar to what the OP said after upgrading from 6.4 to 7.0. In my case it happens only when trying to add a new Metric Server. Most other windows/menues (didn´t test all so far) show up fine. It only happens in Chromium-based browsers (Chrome/Edge) but not in Firefox. Hope that helps shedding some more light on the problem / solution.

I can report same issue on most things. Does the little Netscape navigator icon.

 

[Dominic]

I have not been able to reproduce the problem so far. Could you please try

apt update
apt install --reinstall pve-manager proxmox-widget-toolkit

and hard refresh the browser?

@Nefariousparity @Anguskon What exact versions of pve-manager and proxmox-widget-toolkit do you have installed?

 

[Katharsis]

apt update apt install --reinstall pve-manager proxmox-widget-toolkit

Worked like a charm. Now all glitches are gone.

I did hard reset of the browser before so reinstalling the packages you mentioned did the trick.
Thanks Dominic. Keep up the good work.

 

[Peromk]

I had the same problem.
Had to write a lot of css in to insider just to be able to clone one vm.
Then i found this answer and tried to reinstall just the proxmox-widget-toolkit and its working perfect without any errors

 

[Wladimir]

apt update
apt install --reinstall pve-manager proxmox-widget-toolkit

Hello,

unfortunately I still get the incorrect display as seen in the screenshots of Katharsis.

Are there any other possible causes?
I have upgraded from 6.4-13 to 7.0-11.
