[SOLVED] pve-manager package post-installation script error

[mishki]

What can this error be?

I have uninstalled, reinstalled proxmox packages

apt remove pve-cluster pve-ha-manager pve-container pve-manager libpve-storage-perl qemu-server libpve-guest-common-perl pve-firewall proxmox-ve

I stopped deleting spiceproxy service.

Here is a list of installed packages:

 

[mishki]

I found netdata.service on the system. Reinstalled netdata and removed it correctly.
The cockpit and related packages have also been removed.
Restart spiceproxy service and apt install proxmox-ve.

 

[mishki]

The error was causing a conflict with cockpit.

When trying to update Proxmox, pvedaemon.service raises an error and updates are not applied. To solve the problem, it is enough:

systemctl restart pvedaemon.service

I caught a similar error on all my Proxmox nodes.
