TASK ERROR: unable to create CT 100 - unsupported Ubuntu version '24.04'

[canob]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to PROXMOX, and I'm trying to install a CT with Ubuntu 24.04.

I just installed PROXMOX in my server, and upgraded the CT templates with pveam update command (before that I cannot see Ubuntu 24.04 under system CT templates list, or the ones from Turnkey).

After that, I tried to create a CT based on Ubuntu 24.04 template, but I got this error message:


Is there any reported problems using Ubuntu 24.04 CT template? And in that case, is there any workaround for get it working?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm seeing the same error. I just upgraded to Proxmox 8.2.0, then tried to create a new CT with the Ubuntu 24.04 template.

pve-container >= 5.1.10 supports Ubuntu 24.04

Thanks for the tip!
I've just had the same behaviour. Interestingly, the template has been online since Saturday and I did my updates on Sunday night.
I guess the last update came later.

Thank you very much!

pve-container >= 5.1.10 supports Ubuntu 24.04

When will be supported Ubuntu 24.04 in enterprise repos?
At present (8.2.2) I see pve-container: 5.0.11
Thank you

Still doesn't work. I have tried 5 different times now to create a CT using the Ubuntu 24.04 template. All I get is a blank screen that does not respond except for the cursor to move down. I can't even stop or power off the CT.

trying to acquire lock...

can confirm the same behaviour, even direct ssh to instance is not resdponding

I can confirm the same behavior as well. The only thing I did differently: I mounted an SSH KEY during the installation. I wanted to try it again later without it. However, when I read the posts here, I guess it won't be any different without SSH key.
So far, the image is black. I can move my cursor, but the image on the console remains black. If I change the console to "shell" then I can navigate, but it just doesn't seem to happen.

Issue is being worked on. See here:

There is a fixed template available now via pveam: ubuntu-24.04-standard_24.04-2_amd64.tar.zst

Thank you very much for your support.
I now have the template working on my vhost at home.
