Hi *;
using Proxmox Virtual Environment, I am trying to create a Windows (7/XP) container on a i7 base machine.
I followed the instructions of the video, stored an ISO image of Windows XP installation cd in the base machines directory "/var/lib/vz/template/iso", could select it.
I could start the new VM, see it pick up memory and cpu time. If I then try to access the VM via vnc console, a window opens very shortly, then it closes again and the web session (Firefox) to the base machine closes too.
After reestablishing the Proxmox connection I can see that the VM is still running, but it stays inaccessible. If I try to connect with VM -> same procedure as before.
I searched the forum but found nothing so far.
*** That statement was wrong, I just used the wrong search words.
*** If found a hint to enter the VM manually and tried that.
*** "vzctl enter 104"
*** the answer:
*** "Container config file does not exist"
*** and so it seems; there is no "/etc/vz/conf/104.conf"
*** but: it is a brand new container of type windowsXP ... and I don't know yet whether there should already by a conf file.
*** So still:
Any pointers?
Joachim

Hi Thorsten,
... thank you for the hint.
I already saw the video to install the Win 2003 and followed it "to the letter".
The problem is that a click on the "open vnc" does not start a VNC session but terminates the browser session to Proxmox too (get kicked out completly); I have to open the proxmox page on the server again and re-login.
This happens every time I try to open a VNC connection; I don't get access to the windows console.
Kind regards,
Joachim
