proxmox install on debian bookworm doesn't work

[tkittich]

Hi,

I've followed the document and installed Proxmox VE on a vm running debian bookworm server. After installation, the web ui couldn't be accessed and there're repeating errors in journald logs. Also, the folder /etc/pve is completely empty. So it seemed the ssl keys and firewall didn't get setup correctly. How do I fix that?

I've tried again. This time with a static IP set. The installation went flawlessly. So it seems dhcp ip was the cause of the errors.
