VM container won't start-up after VE hard shut-down

[Petrus4]

My Proxmox VE 1.7 environment was accidentally shutdown by accidental pulling out of the plug. Now my proxmox container will not start and the only error I get in the logs is:

VM 101 start failed. can someone help me trouble shoot this?

SOLVED: Re: VM container won't start-up after VE hard shut-down

It turns out the containers quota system was crashed and I had to reset it by the doing the following command:

# vzquota off 101
# vzquota on 101

101 is the VMID so fill in your own ID of your crashed VM

After that the contaner booted up with no issues.

I then had to repair my mysql tables but that has nothing to do with the container not booting up.

Problem Solved!
