I have the same errors today. So sad. And can't fix it.

 

[tom]

make sure that you follow the upgrade docs exactly, maybe you missed a reboot.?

All was done from here https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_3.x_to_4.0

But when I run 'apt-get upgrade' I have got a kernel panic. Then start the server. vmbr0 was down, can't up. Configured eth0 and run the upgrade again.

 

[tom]

"apt-get upgrade" is the wrong command.

read the upgrade docs again.

 

[Andrii]

p.s. kernel panic was not after upgrade, but after install proxmox-ve - my mistake, sorry
- - - -
Remove Proxmox VE 3.x packages in order to avoid dependency errors - Done all
Install the new kernel - Done
Upgrade the basic system to Debian Jessie - Done
Reboot
Install Proxmox VE 4.0:
apt-get install proxmox-ve
kernel panic
reboot
System start without bridge. Up eth0. Install proxmox-ve again and have errors.

 

[Andrii]

OK. I'll try to reinstall the system with Debian 8 and proxmox 4.

My fix was unmasking the pve.firewall service, it then installed and configured everything properly

Note: This is not part of the instructions.

no need to mask that service - simply don't enable the firewall in the web interface?

 

[webbytech]

We don't use the firewall, however during the upgrade it apparently masked. As son as I uninstalled pve-firewall, unmasked and then ran the upgrade again it worked fine.
