Hello I have created a Ubuntu 20.04 and 18.04 container in Proxmox and both return the same error when I try to start them up after creating the container via the Proxmox GUI.
They fail to start and return the following error message:
Job for pve-container@100.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status pve-container@100.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
TASK ERROR: command 'systemctl start pve-container@100' failed: exit code 1
I found another serverfault question that sounds similar]1, however the error is slightly different and I have not even got to the step of being able to set anything up. These are clean Ubuntu templates downloaded right through Proxmox's official location. Also when I setup Proxmox I and the containers I left everything default including all the storage things.
I am a bit unclear on where to go from here or what to do.
I also did the journalctl -xe command and the systemctl status commands as the error messages indicates for details and here are the results:
# journalctl -xe
