Unable to create VM

[pentelpen30]

Originally, I was getting a "detected old qemu binary (at least 3.0 is required)" error when I tried to boot up a VM. Since it's only a newly created VM, I decided to just delete and recreate it. Now every time I try to create any VM, I'm getting this error

Please provide the output of pveversion --verbose in CODE tags.

Hi,
what is the output of

/usr/bin/kvm --version
/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 --version
perl -e 'use PVE::QemuServer; print PVE::QemuServer::kvm_user_version() . "\n"'

That might indicate some kind of corruption. You can try re-installing with apt install pve-qemu-kvm --reinstall but better to also run apt install debsums && debsums -s to check for any other corrupted package files.

Also check your system logs/journal and if your hardware is still okay.
