Hi together,

im near desperation. I´m trying to copy youtube tutorials 1:1 to setup my Proxmox and Pihole. Base is a Dell Latitute E6330. I am setting up proxmox and can go to the webinterface. Then I do the setup for deleting enterprise and adding the "not recommended repo". After this I am trying to create a debian 10 CT but when I try to start it im getting following Error:

netdev_configure_server_veth: 659 Operation not supported - Failed to create veth pair "veth101i0" and "vethy9clSL" lxc_create_network_priv: 3418 Operation not supported - Failed to create network device lxc_spawn: 1844 Failed to create the network __lxc_start: 2073 Failed to spawn container "101" TASK ERROR: startup for container '101' failed

Does someone knows what to do?

I´m using a fritzbox and my vmbr0 got the Adress: 192.168.178.77/24 and gateway 192.168.178.1 with bridge port eno1.

did you do upgrades recently? don't forget to reboot your PVE ;)

if the container still fails after the host reboot, please post the outputs from:
* pct config CTID
* pct start CTID --debug

Hi Oguz,

if I press "reboot" is this the right way?

When I open up the shell and try to put in your commands it says:
400 Parameter verification failed.
vmid: type check ('integer') failed - got 'CTID'
pct start <vmid> [OPTIONS]

you can just run reboot on your PVE host shell (not inside the container)

When I open up the shell and try to put in your commands it says:
400 Parameter verification failed.
vmid: type check ('integer') failed - got 'CTID'
pct start <vmid> [OPTIONS]
and also replace CTID with the actual ID of your container ;)

Sure my bad :D I am very new to this topics.

I did the reboot and the CT came online.
How simple but also despairing.

Thank you very much Oguz you are my hero! :)
