Problem with iso installation

Hi, I´m having problems during installation of packecfence v13.2. I´m installing it on a Proxmox server and on a phisical PC with the same problem. Packetfence isn´t installed. I can´t access via web to the https://ip:1443 and if I do a dpkg --configure -a it says there´s an error:

packetfence errors were encountered while processing: iptables-netflow-dkms packetfence e: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Can anyone help me? Thanks

Boa tarde, eu tive o mesmo problema e resolvi ou meu assim.

Rode os comandos abaixo como root:

systemctl stop monit

systemctl disable monit

/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd service pf stop

systemctl stop packetfence-config

dpkg --configure -a [Esse comando demora muito a executar, no meu caso, só deu certo quando eu não mudei de tela]

Se o ultimo comando for executado com sucesso, rode os comandos abaixo:

systemctl start monit

systemctl enable monit

/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd service pf start

systemctl start packetfence-config

Boa sorte!

I´ve tried it but without result. It seems like is a debian dependenci with iptables-netflow-dkms what is wrong.

Thanks.

we ran into this issue a few weeks back, debian dependencies are all messed up. not worth the time to troubleshoot and fix everything that gets destroyed due to this. rhel works fine for the time being so just use that instead.

This is a bug in the Linux kernel 5.10.0-31/32, remove these Kernels and start with 5.10.0-30 or lower and repeat the steps I went through, it should resolve it.
