Proxmox failing

ulfthomas · October 9, 2020, 2:51pm

Hi.

Followed the guided and the following to my config file:

proxmoxve:
  - host: !secret pve_host
    realm: pam
    username: !secret pve_user
    password: !secret pve_password
    nodes:
      - node: PVE
        vms:
          - 100
        containers:
          - 107

This results in the following errors:

2020-10-09 16:38:35 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.binary_sensor] proxmoxve: Error on device update!
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise ResourceException("{0} {1}: {2} - {3}".format(
proxmoxer.core.ResourceException: 596 Errors during TLS negotiation, request sending and header processing: tls_process_server_certificate: certificate verify failed - b''

What I have tried:

Initial config on proxmox used a self-signed certificate but with ‘verify_ssl: false’ it still failed with same error
Switching proxmox certificate to official LE certificate still gives same error
Accessing proxmox with a browser gave error on self-signed (as expected), but it works without any notifications with LE certificate

Anybody have any advice?

Here my working config:

proxmoxve:
  host: 10.10.40.6
  username: !secret pve_user
  password: !secret pve_pass
  realm: pve
  verify_ssl: false
  nodes:
    - node: pve
      vms:
        - 101
        - 102
        - 103
        - 105

Did you try changing the realm? Did you create a user with the correct permissions on Proxmox side?

Just now I tried manually logging in with PVE on the webiste and it failed. Only works with PAM.

I have not created a new user - tried with root.

I created a separate user as explained in the official docs, and there I set the realm to Proxmox VE authentication server.

ulfthomas · October 11, 2020, 2:02pm

Fair point - retried with the steps from the documentation and the error message remains the same.

SoulAssassin · October 21, 2020, 4:07pm

The same at my side guys:

I have an in logs:

proxmoxve: Error on device update!
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/helpers/entity_platform.py", line 346, in _async_add_entity

    raise ResourceException("{0} {1}: {2} - {3}".format(
proxmoxer.core.ResourceException: 596 Errors during TLS negotiation, request sending and header processing: tls_process_server_certificate: certificate verify failed - b''

With the next settings:

proxmoxve:
  - host: 192.168.0.9
    verify_ssl: false
    username: homeassistant
    password: password
    realm: pve
    nodes:
      - node: Proxmox
        vms:
          - 101
        containers:
          - 111
          - 113
          - 115
          - 117

I see autentificated info line at my proxmox node also:

…but have an error, what I’m has did wrong?

SoulAssassin · October 21, 2020, 4:10pm

What the pve version are u use?

Burningstone · October 21, 2020, 4:13pm

The latest version 6.2-11 and HA 0.116.2. Does your user have the VM.Audit privileges enabled?

I can upgrade to 0.116.4 and test if it still works, but I doubt that it’ll make any difference.

SoulAssassin · October 21, 2020, 4:27pm

Sure, the same like in official integration docs… I’m checked login in web gui of my proxmox with these creds and it works.

SoulAssassin · October 21, 2020, 4:28pm

At my side pve 6.2-12 and ha 116.4 also.

SoulAssassin · November 20, 2020, 3:02pm

The question was resolved - the node name should exactly match the name in the configuration, and due to an incomprehensible answer in the HA logs, it was not clear what the integration needed.

ulfthomas · November 20, 2020, 4:18pm

The node name should match exatcly what?

Burningstone · November 20, 2020, 4:34pm

nodes:
    - node: pve

The nod name pve must be exactly the same name as the node configured in proxmox.

Well, what do you know!

Worked like a charm when following your advice. Thank you kindly.
