Hello,

after a simple reboot my proxmox ve-Server did not start anymore and the webinterface is not reachable. I did not do anything on system itself.

Syslog says:
Code: 
Nov 24 10:42:34 proxmox systemd[1]: Removed slice system-postfix.slice.
Nov 24 10:42:34 proxmox systemd[1]: postfix.service: Succeeded.
Nov 24 10:43:24 proxmox postfix/postsuper[878]: fatal: scan_dir_push: open directory defer: Permission denied
Nov 24 10:43:25 proxmox postfix/postfix-script[889]: fatal: Postfix integrity check failed!
Nov 24 10:43:26 proxmox systemd[1]: postfix@-.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Nov 24 10:43:26 proxmox systemd[1]: postfix@-.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

Any idea or help what went wrong or happened with my system?

Thanks a lot in advice!
 
Hi,

Is the PVE SSH reachable? if yes - please check from the following:

- Syslog before the server reboots in 30 minutes, at least
- Check if the :8006 port is open (if it's) you can test cURL command

Please also provide us with the output of pveversion -v
 
Hi,

here we are ... syslog is attached.

Port seems to be open:
Code: 
root@proxmox:~# nmap localhost -p 8006 -Pn -T5
Starting Nmap 7.80 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2022-11-24 18:15 CET
Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
Host is up (0.000035s latency).
rDNS record for 127.0.0.1: localhost.localdomain

PORT     STATE SERVICE
8006/tcp open  wpl-analytics

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.08 seconds

What u mean with test cURL command?

output of pveversion -v:

I mean, see the response using the below command:
Bash: 
curl -k https://PVE-IP:8006/ | grep title


Thank you for the syslog!

From the Syslog attached, I can see a lot of the following messages, e.g:

Code: 
Nov 24 18:09:13 proxmox pveproxy[1792]: unable to open log file '/var/log/pveproxy/access.log' - Permission denied
Nov 24 18:09:13 proxmox pveproxy[1793]: unable to open log file '/var/log/pveproxy/access.log' - Permission denied
Nov 24 18:09:13 proxmox pveproxy[1794]: unable to open log file '/var/log/pveproxy/access.log' - Permission denied
I would check if the `/var/log/pveproxy/access.log` has a right permission (ls -lh /var/log/pveproxy/access.log)
 
Thanks for your help.

With the curl command I get no reaction till I stop it with strg+c/control+c:

Code: 
root@proxmox:~# curl -k https://192.168.2.3:8006/  grep title
^C
root@proxmox:~#nmap localhost -p 8006 -Pn -T5
Starting Nmap 7.80 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2022-11-25 23:46 CET
Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
Host is up (0.000033s latency).
rDNS record for 127.0.0.1: localhost.localdomain

PORT     STATE SERVICE
8006/tcp open  wpl-analytics

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.11 seconds

Permission on access.log looks like following:
Code: 
ls -al /var/log/pveproxy/access.log
-rw-r----- 1 www-data www-data 0 25. Nov 00:01 /var/log/pveproxy/access.log
Is this the right permission or is there something wrong?

Can you nmap the host IP instead of the localhost on port 8006?

For sure:
Code: 
root@proxmox:~# nmap 192.168.2.3 -p 8006 -Pn -T5
Starting Nmap 7.80 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2022-11-28 12:31 CET
Nmap scan report for proxmox.lenovo.pve (192.168.2.3)
Host is up (0.000034s latency).

PORT     STATE SERVICE
8006/tcp open  wpl-analytics

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.09 seconds

Is it easier for you to write in german? Or should we better use english further?
 
Sorry, da hat das copy & paste mir wohl einen Streich gespielt.

Code: 
root@proxmox:~# curl -k https://192.168.2.3:8006/ | grep title
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
  0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:--  0:01:24 --:--:--     0

Ich habe dann nach 1 Minute und 24 Sekunden mit Strg + C abgebrochen.
 
Kannst du mal versuchen, um zu pveproxy neu starten?

Code: 
systemctl start pveproxy.service

Wenn auch nicht hilft, poste bitte die Ausgabe von systemctl status pveproxy.service

Das schaut so als als hätte das nicht funktioniert:
Code: 
root@proxmox:~# systemctl start pveproxy.service
root@proxmox:~# curl -k https://192.168.2.3:8006/ | grep title
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
  0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:--  0:00:31 --:--:--     0^C
Ich hatte dann wieder nach 31 Sekunden mit Strg + C abgebrochen.

Die Ausgabe von
Code: 
systemctl status pveproxy.service
habe ich wieder als Textdatei angehängt. Da taucht wieder häufig der Hinweis auf das fehlende Zugriffsrecht auf /var/log/pveproxy/access.log auf.

Hallo,

Die Meldung "unable to open log file '/var/log/pveproxy/access.log' - Permission denied" besagt, dass keine Permission vorhanden ist. Kannst du bitte die Permission für den gesamten Ordner überprüfen?

Bash: 
ls -al /var/log/pveproxy/

Es sollte wie die folgenden Permissions sein

Bash: 
~ ls -al /var/log/pveproxy/
total 6824
drwx------  2 www-data www-data    4096 Nov 28 09:53 .

-rw-r-----  1 www-data www-data 2240493 Nov 28 15:12 access.log

Hast du versucht, den Server neu zu starten?

Den Server habe ich zwischenzeitlich mehrfach neu gestartet. Das macht er auch normal via Befehl "reboot" oder alternativ zum Herunterfahren "shutdown -h now".
 
Hello,

Die Permisssion der Ordner sollten wie folgt sein:
