Proxmox web interface issue: 'proxy not allowed (500)'?

[k0nsl]

I am running Proxmox for a specific project that more or less required me to use Proxmox, which by the way appears to be really good when it is working. In any case, I ran into a whole host of issues after doing update + upgrade via:

aptitude update && aptitude full-upgrade

This resulted what one would expect, a complete upgrade. I'm sure everything is in the logs, I've just not had time or patience to look through exactly what it updated and upgraded. But here is the version(s) I'm running:

root@server:/etc/init.d# pveversion -v
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.1-114 (running kernel: 2.6.32-20-pve)
pve-manager: 3.1-21 (running version: 3.1-21/93bf03d4)

pve-qemu-kvm: 1.4-17
ksm-control-daemon: 1.1-1
glusterfs-client: 3.4.1-1

After the upgrade I was greeted with a screen which said 'I had no valid subscription', which is odd, because prior to the upgrade it was a free software, and it never asked for a valid subscription. So I removed this message - because it even locked me out from a system which previously worked to 99%, but it needed to be updated because there were a few issues related to the built-in httpd, I believe, python related. I cannot check the logs via web gui right now because it says 'connection error 500: proxy not allowed'.
Here is one screenshot:


Any ideas on how to solve this so I can get a working Proxmox instance again? I am not particularly keen on asking the guys who I rent the server from to do another install again.

Faithfully,

The popup just informs you that you do not have a valid subscription. The system is still 100% functional and free.

Hi Dietmar,

I got everything working by spending one day to solve the issue, but I didn't take notes on how I solved the issue. And no, the system (or webgui rather) was not 100% functional, actually far from it, as it trotted out this:
'connection error 500: proxy not allowed'
Which consequently did not let me do a thing via the webgui. One thing I remember doing, by the way, was removing the paid repositories from my sources list. They must have been added into it after the upgrade - for some reason. But again, I did so many changes and was very tired so I did not take notes.

Now the software works 100% and I'm quite happy with it. Compliments to the developers!

Faithfully,

Hi k0nsl,
Can you please help me with the issue? It just happened automatically without even doing anything. Maybe it did some kind of autoupdate, I don't really know. If possible, can you please give me a hint of what to do?
Thanks a lot.
