proxmox UI does not opens

[ezh]

I have a problem. Installed Proxmox 5.3. Debian.

I cannot connect to Proxmox UI.

From localhost:

wget --no-check-certificate https://192.168.1.3:8006
--2018-12-10 18:21:07-- https://192.168.1.3:8006/
Connecting to 192.168.1.3:8006... connected.

wget https://192.168.1.3:8006
--2018-12-10 18:21:36-- https://192.168.1.3:8006/
Connecting to 192.168.1.3:8006... connected.

But in browser:
The connection has timed out
The server at 192.168.1.3 is taking too long to respond.

From a Windows PC on the same network same error.

What is wrong? Please help.

Tnx!

Anything in the logs?
Did you install it on top of Debian or with our iso from scratch?

 

[ezh]

Yes. On top of fresh installed Debian.

 

[tim]

Did you follow that guide: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_Stretch
Especially the section about the hostname?

 

[ezh]

I had problem with host name.

Here it is:
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/e...-or-key-at-usr-share-perl5.48943/#post-229246

This was the fix:
* get rid of the line `127.0.1.1 debian` unless you need it

Now all is installed, but not responding.

 

[ezh]

Anyone?

 

[oguz]

Now all is installed, but not responding.

What do you get when you wget again?

 

[ezh]

Using wget
Connecting to 192.168.1.3:8006... connected.
Connecting to 192.168.1.3:8006... connected.
Connecting to 192.168.1.3:8006... connected. etc.

 

[ezh]

Please help...

You wrote that you solved the problem by adding the missing entry in /etc/hosts, so I assumed you are now able to use the GUI?
Not sure what you mean by not responding? If you are talking about your browser connection please be more specific e.g. what type of error is displayed and please provide logs.

You can either provide more details, try to reinstall from scratch following the guide i provided or just use our iso which includes a installer.

After I deleted the Debian line in hosts I could install proxmox, but still no GUI in browser... As I mentioned in first post:

The connection has timed out
The server at 192.168.1.3 is taking too long to respond.

But wget connects.

I did installed following the guide.

 

[oguz]

Can you give the output of:

systemctl status pvedaemon.service
systemctl status pveproxy.service

Also the '/etc/hosts' file and a screenshot of the browser page please.

 

[ezh]

This seems the problem...

 

[oguz]

Can you try:

pvecm updatecerts

 

[ezh]

seem like a problem with /etc/hosts or name resolution:
* could you please post your `/etc/hosts`
* and the output of `ip addr` ?
anonymize them if needed
* do you run with a IPv6 only setup?

 

[ezh]

Here it is:

1. hosts


2. ip addr


3. I have just IPv4. It is a simple home test server.

 

[Stoiko Ivanov]

hmm - that doesn't seem to match - your shell says that the hostname is `debian`, your /etc/hosts says it's viimsi.proxmox.com or proxmox?
You need to make sure that the hostname settings are correct:
* your short hostname (e.g. viimsi) is in /etc/hostname
* there is a line in your /etc/hosts which points one ip you have configured on your system to that hostname (and any aliases, and fqdn versions of it)

192.168.1.3  viimsi viimsi.some.domain

the output of the following commands should be helpful:
* `hostname`
* `uname -n`
* `hostname -f`
* `getent hosts viimsi`

you probably will need to reboot after setting the name in all the necessary locations
