Please make sure directory /etc/pve/ is empty before starting that service. For example
you can try:

# mv /etc/pve /etc/pve.old
# mkdir /etc/pve
# systemctl start pve-cluster.service

Does that work?

Command "systemctl start pve-cluster.service" , it works.

But i still have an error in GUI management doesnt work.
