Proxmox Web UI not loading after Reboot

[comno6]

Hello,

After searching online for a while, I have not found a solution.

I power cycled my server running Proxmox. I noticed I was unable to access the server.

The IP address hasn't changed, and when I run the command:

wget --no-check-certificate https://localhost:8006

It looks like the index downloads.

The containers/VM's still appear to be reachable and running in the background.

Thanks

Chris

After looking into this more, the containers/VM's are not reachable.

I used the command: curl -sk https://localhost:8006

It returned HTML, so it appears the web UI is running?

Why don't you simply check it using another PC oder mobile device and the server's IP-address?

What is the output of ip a and cat /etc/network/interfaces (from the Proxmox host console)? A readable photo of the attached physical display will do.

That looks normal. If you cannot reach Proxmox from another system then it's probably a firewall or your router. Maybe the 192.168.86.71 is inside the DHCP-range of your router? Maybe change it to something outside of it (but within the local 192.168.86.0/24 subnet)? Or reserve it statically in your router?

How do i set this to DHCP - I also factory reset my router.

Thanks

Proxmox does not support DHCP out of the box. I have no experience with this but maybe a Debian DHCP guide can help? You know your router better than me, so maybe just use a non-DHCP address instead by selecting an IP address for Proxmox outside of the DHCP-range (and maybe changing the DHCP-range if there are no unused addresses)?

Thank you

I had to edit:

nano /etc/network/interfaces

and

/etc/hosts

I then reserved the IP and it worked.

Thank you very much!
