I've been trouble shooting this for a while now. I tried running adguard home on a vm. For whatever reason my router then decided to change the IP for my LAN from xxx.xxx.1.1 to xxx.xxx.0.1 which bricked my whole network. Turned off adguard returned DNS server to default then changed my LAN IP back to what it was. Couldn't connect to proxmox web GUI so I restarted the server and managed to get into iDRAC with the IP address iDRAC had before. Checked router and all of the DHCP reservations were still there for proxmox and my VM's. I can use iDRAC to access the console and from there I can ping out to google.com and ping my gateway but nothing when I try to connect to the GUI on it's old IP address.
So I ran ip a and ip r
Initial outputs were:
So I caught the discrepancy figured I'd have to change the /etc/network/interfaces so I changed the address under vmbr0 to match what I got from ip r then changed /etc/hosts ip address to match as well.
restarted network via systemctl and pinged out to google. Worked fine. Pinged to gateway. Worked fine. Tried loading GUI with new ip and nothing.
ip a and ip r now just show 192.168.1.128 in place of where 192.168.1.151 was. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces
and /etc/hosts
Still can't connect to GUI but can ping out to the internet and my router. I can not SSH into proxmox only iDRAC so I had to hand write those outputs please excuse any error. If further information is needed please let me know. I am about out of ideas and I really don't want to reinstall proxmox.
EDIT: Router does show the correct mac address and ip address and when I ping out it shows rx tx from proxmox so I really don't know what's going on lol
EDIT2: Now all of a sudden it works. I haven't changed anything other than I pinged my local PC and I pinged iDRAC and now it works??? Would pinging iDRAC or my personal computer change anything?????? If anyone has an answer as to why this happened I would appreciate it but otherwise I guess this is solved.
EDIT3: So I can get to the GUI but can't login I know my password is correct and I have changed it from the iDRAC console as well to make sure. Nor can I SSH into the server still. I am just seriously dumbfounded
EDIT4: Can only connect to the GUI immediately after pinging PC and iDRAC after that I can't connect and have to ping those two again.
EDIT5: I can SSH in now. Here is the SYSLOG
FINALEDIT: I am going to tag this as solved since I suppose the issue is somewhat fixed. I was putting a space before root or after I guess and logged in. Had to reboot PC and the connection issue appeared again where I couldn't access GUI. So I have to ping my local PC in order to connect to the GUI. Which is a bit annoying but not the end of the world so if anyone knows what's going on please let me know otherwise I guess this is solved?
