Trying to activate vnc

[cosmin1805]

I tryed to activate vnc: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/VNC_Client_Access, but when it did not work I looked into the sys logs and saw
Sep 18 22:19:29 proxmox qmeventd[82512]: vm 100 - unable to parse config: -vnc 0.0.0.0:1

Also should the vm itself have some vnc server instaled or does proxmox manage that?

first, what do you try to achieve? is the built-in web console not enough?
second, what does the vm config currently look like? (e.g. do a 'cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf' )

and

Also should the vm itself have some vnc server instaled or does proxmox manage that?

for that, the vm does not need to have anything installed

So the web console is what I need but I want to use apache guacamole(that has the protocols to connect: kubernetes, RDP, SSH,Telnet, VNC)to let some of my friends have their own VM that they can access from just the web interface of guac, so no access to other VMs or to any settings of it. I am open to suggestions on how I can do that in another way.

ok the config looks right, can you also post the output of

qm config 100
pveversion -v
