Web interface and service stopped working

[PowdersRevenge]

Hey all,

I have the latest VE installed but I recently had the Web interface just stop working. I can't restart any of the services either. My hostname is correct, I can ssh to the server without a problem but I keep getting the following errors.



I've tried running a reinstall, and I've tried re-issuing the certs as per the link below

Nothing is working. Please help

Thanks

Bump.

Anyone able to assist?

are there any other messages in the syslog/journal? is there a key/cert in /etc/pve/local ?

Those are the only messages in the Journal

Yes the key I generated as per the link above.

Thanks

Anyone able to advise on this?

It seems that our configuration filesystem could not start, it's normally mounted at /etc/pve.
Can you please check the for the first (top-most) errors on the following command and post the output here:

journalctl -b -u pve-cluster

Hope this helps

Thought so, you created those cert/key files inside /etc/pve while pmxcfs was not mounted, so it cannot be mounted now as the directory is not empty.

Let's try the following:

systemctl reset-failed pve-cluster
mv /etc/pve /etc/pve.old
systemctl restart pve-cluster

Note, there's a chance that there's another error, as the initial problem may not have been the non-empty directory.
If so, please post the same journalctl output again.

Thanks that part seemed to work, but now how do I get my VM back?

It's almost like the permissions are gone completely, even as root I cannot do anything.

I saw similar issue on my server. It was caused by the hostname change with the hostnamectl. The response of the command hostname -i began answering with an empty response. Set it up to result with a real IP and restart a proxmox instance. That should fix the issue.
