Hi! I'm trying to upgrade my Proxmox 7 to 8, and I'm getting this warning. Can you help me out?

Code: 
W: (pve-apt-hook) !! WARNING !!
W: (pve-apt-hook) You are attempting to remove the meta-package 'proxmox-ve'!
W: (pve-apt-hook)
W: (pve-apt-hook) If you really want to permanently remove 'proxmox-ve' from your system, run the following command
W: (pve-apt-hook)       touch '/please-remove-proxmox-ve'
W: (pve-apt-hook) run apt purge proxmox-ve to remove the meta-package
W: (pve-apt-hook) and repeat your apt invocation.
W: (pve-apt-hook)
W: (pve-apt-hook) If you are unsure why 'proxmox-ve' would be removed, please verify
W: (pve-apt-hook)       - your APT repository settings
W: (pve-apt-hook)       - that you are using 'apt full-upgrade' to upgrade your system
E: Sub-process /usr/share/proxmox-ve/pve-apt-hook returned an error code (1)

Thanks!

Hi,
you still have the enterprise repository configured in addition to the no-subscription repository. Also, the no-subscription repository still has buster configured instead of bookworm. Please fix this and make sure to also run pve7to8 --full to check for common upgrade issues/misconfiguration.

In addition, read trough and follow the upgrade guide very carefully, see https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_7_to_8
 
In addition, as a side question:
Are you sure, that you are on PVE 7 at all?
I mean, buster is PVE 6 after all and the question is, why it is there; but not / instead of: bullseye which is PVE 7 and what would be expected for an overlooked (aka: mistakenly not yet updated/changed) repository on a system, that is in the process to be upgraded from PVE 7 to PVE 8.

Hi,

This is what I see when I run the command pve7to8 --full:

Code: 
FAIL: Found mixed old and new package repository suites, fix before upgrading! Mismatches:
    found suite bookworm at in /etc/apt/sources.list:3
    found suite bullseye at in /etc/apt/sources.list:8
    found suite buster at in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve.list:1
  Configure the same base-suite for all Proxmox and Debian provided repos and ask original vendor for any third-party repos.
  E.g., for the upgrade to Proxmox VE 8 use the 'bookworm' suite.

I don't know how to fix it, could you help me?

Thanks,
Gonzalo.

Hi,

Yes, I'm sure. This is what I see when I run the command pveversion:

Code: 
pve-manager/7.4-17/513c62be (running kernel: 5.15.102-1-pve)
 
Please provide the full output in code-tags of: grep -r '' /etc/apt/sources.list* (do not forget the: * at the end!)
 
Hi,

This does not match your previous posted output of: pve7to8 --full...anyway:

Replace the whole content of your: /etc/apt/sources.list with:
Bash: 
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_Repositories -> "Sources.list"

Add/Insert to your (empty): /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve.list:
Bash: 
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bookworm pve-no-subscription
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_Repositories#sysadmin_no_subscription_repo

Run: apt update, followed by: apt full-upgrade (recommended locally or via IPMI; but definitely not via the webUI!)

As @Chris already said: Read, understand and follow the upgrade guide step-by-step:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_7_to_8
 
It worked!
