Home Assistant Interface Unstable

I installed Home Assistant yesterday and configured couple devices and now I have to keep refreshing for the ui pages to load and also sometimes when I reboot Home Assistant VM. I get following message

home assistant cli is not running emergency console

Need help troubleshooting it.

OK: what are you running on, and how did you install it?

I am running it as VM on Proxmox I downloaded VirtualBox VDI from here

It seems all connections reset maybe

Can this be causing the issue?

I don’t know, sorry: I have no experience with VM setups. Hopefully an expert in that area will be along to answer — I was just getting the information that anyone would need to help you further.

I believe you are choosing the wrong image to install on Proxmox.

Anyway there are some guidelines to install it from Install Proxmox and virtualize Home Assistant | JuanMTech

OR you can try to install using Debian + HA + Supervised version which is 100% stable.

You could also try the script from whiskerz007

it basically does all the work for you in proxmox

@Troon @Luitertje I had added a second network interface. After removing the second network interface it fixed.
