The error message says it can't open /etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.key.
There are several possibilities:
1. The file is missing
2. The file has the wrong permissions
3. The file is corrupted

Please show output of:
ls -l /etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.*

You can recreate SSL Key and Cert with

pvecm updatecerts --force

Is /etc/pve mounted at all?
mount |grep etc

Are there failed services?
systemctl --failed

High priority log messages?
journalctl -b -p3
 
systemctl --failed show all the proxmox services as failed, including pve-cluster, which provides the /etc/pve config directory

the journal shows: Unable to get local IP address,

please show output of ip addr and ip route

and of cat /etc/network/interfaces

try restarting the services:

systemctl restart pve*


systemctl status pve*

Your interface enp9s0 does not have an IP:

Please post content of /etc/network/interfaces and of /etc/hosts

cat /etc/network/interfaces

cat /etc/hosts
 
hetzner ist a bit tricky, networkwise, they use pointopont connections, try

auto enp9s0 iface enp9s0 inet static address a.b.c.d pointopoint 176.9.79.225 gateway 176.9.79.225 hwaddress a8:a1:59:94:17:83

then

systemctl restart networking

with a.b.c.d being your ip, of course

try to ping 8.8.8.8 afterwards
 
Hi,
please verify that your hostname is configured correctly cat /etc/hostname and that you have a entry in /etc/hosts which resolves your hostname to the IP address.

Did you change one of these files recently?

You need to configure a bridge interface on your proxmox server to which the vm can connect.
Do NOT add your network card to that interface or you will be blocked by your provider for using an extra mac address

your /etc/network/interfaces should look something like this:
auto lo <--- loopback interface iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 <--- your network card allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto vmbr0 <--- add this vmbridge part iface vmbr0 inet static address 10.0.0.254/24 bridge-ports none bridge-stp off bridge-fd 0

Your VMs can get internal addresses from 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.253.

In order for your VMs to talk to the internet you have to

1. enable forwarding:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
check with cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward, it should be 1

2. Setup Firewall rules to masquerade your internal 10.0.0.x addresses

3. To reach your VMs from the internet you have to make firewall rules to dnat
