root@pve:~# apt-get upgrade

this will always break Proxmox VE.

read the docs and other forum posts.

Really? Not in the past.

However I've done a "dist-upgrade" now, and things seem fine.

I generally do an upgrade so to avoid new kernels and the associated re-boot until I am able and ready. Up to now new versions of pve have installed fine.

I'm running version 6.2-4.

After running apt-get update and dist-upgrade, nothing happens.

How can I upgrade to version 6.3?

Thanks.
Regards.

After running apt-get update and dist-upgrade, nothing happens.

Please make sure that you have a valid update repo configured.

See https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#sysadmin_package_repositories

Hi.

That's the content of my /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian buster main contrib

deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org buster/updates main contrib

UPDATE: ok, that's the missing line:
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription

Thanks.
