I have destroyed the server & rebuilding it. Now uploading the iso.

Also, the newly constructed VMs are NOT accepting the Virtual Mac address. Its saying auto and on entering the address the next button is getting disabled. When i left auto the VMs are NOT getting connected.

Do you get any message (hover over with the mouse) when you enter the MAC?
What do you mean, by the VM doesn't get connected?

I needed to destroy and rebuild one of my VM so i did but when i rebuilt it, its saying auto in Mac Address, on entering the address as i already mentioned the next button disabled. So, no option but let the Mac address be auto. So i logged in but when i did the /etc/network/interfaces/ configuration it didnt connected to net. I cross checked the configuration many times.

Finally, i destroyed the whole server and rebuild it, first vm accepted the mac address i entered but didnt started as i mentioned in first message and shared the screenshot. On building second VM it didnt allowed the mac address but auto so i let it but it again not starting. Unfortunately i didnt took screenshot of whole error message.

Now, i again destroyed the server and rebuilding it but proxmox 5.4-8 without zfs and will share the screenshots.

If possible please copy text/error message, instead of using screenshots. Please also post configurations, otherwise it will be really hard to help you out.

As long as the MAC address is wrongly written the next button will not activate.

What you entered is not a valid mac address.
: are missing.
Try adding : after each two characters.
