Proxmox 7 Login Issue

If you are using proxmox 7 and facing virtualizor login issue then follow this steps:
1. SSH to your server and execute the following command

nano /etc/pam.d/common-password

2. Look for "password        [success=1 default=ignore]      pam_unix.so obscure yescrypt" line

3. Change the yescrypt in above line to sha512

4. Change the server password and try to login into virtualizor again

Cant open http://IP-Address:4084

Please check if your iptables firewall is running You can disable it with the following command if even after allowing ports, the panel is not working :

root> service iptables stop
Note
In all cases please remember to disable SElinux. The Virtualizor installer will try to disable it. For KVM make sure that VT is enabled from bios so VPS can be able to start.

Error : The storage doesn't exist

If you get this error while adding Storage, please execute the following command :

root> vgchange -ay
