🌟 Briefly describe the feature

Post install script is currently setup to work with PVE 8. PVE 9 was just released and is not compatible due to the source list change.

📝 Detailed description

Hello,

As you probably now PVE 9 was released today and uses Debian 13 Trixie 🥳.

Currently the post-pve-install script is compatible only with PVE 8 and Debian 12.

Here is a non exhaustive list of changes I believe needs to be done in order for the script to be compatible again.

Change debian 12 sources list from 12 to 13.
Change source list format to deb822 style format (as per recommended in the Proxmox VE upgrade guide from 8 to 9).

Maybe some more things would need to be changed those are just the first things that came to mind while reading the script.

💡 Why is this useful?

The script cannot be used on latest Proxmox installs.

This will take some time as all of our backend scripts need to be tested befor we can release anything. There will be for sure a announcment on the discussions as well as the discord when we are ready to support pve 9.

Feel free to give feedback, its an full refactored script, with more logic. Its only in DEV Repo now, i only test on 2 of my 3 nodes (2 PVE9 / 1 PVE8) and on an fresh installed VM

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED/main/tools/pve/post-pve-install.sh)"

Tested it myself, works fine for PVE9 except:

Can you verify disabling the enterprise repositories works? Didn't seem to disable pve-enterprise-source on my machine.

Just tested it on pve 8.4.9, worked fine. I do not have a PVE 9 instance to test it out for now.

Seems to have fixed it.

I re-enabled the enterprise repo and ran the script, and it has now disabled it (as intended)

Just a small suggestion. When changing sources on PVE 8 (and 9 in case it's already using latest sources list format, in this case there would be no backup too) that would be nice to warn that it will overwrite existing one and their components.
I use non-free-firmware and I need to add it back after script ran. It would help to remind it for those in the same situation or with maybe other sources.

Wdym? I have custom sources and they didn't get overwritten?

The sources in /etc/apt/sources.list are overwritten. Custom sources in sources.list.d are not, my bad. I added the non-free-firmware component in the main /etc/apt/sources.list file tho, maybe I should not add them in there then ?

Just saw it, thanks. Not really related but should I add an additional list file with debian repo, but only non-free-firmware component, or should I just edit the debian.sources one?

Thanks a lot, just to clarify. I should add non-free-firmware component to proxmox source?

Edit:

From : https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#sysadmin_debian_firmware_repo

If you upgraded your Proxmox VE 9 install from a previous version of Proxmox VE and have modernized your package repositories to the new deb822-style, you will need to adapt /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources instead. Run editor /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources and add non-free-firmware to the lines starting with Components: of each stanza.

That's what I'll do

Based on my previous comment I suggest to add a warning in the script before editing /etc/apt/sources.list since any component change to the debian or proxmox repo will be overwritten if the user did not already migrate to deb822. Additionally, shouldn't non-free-firmware be added by default in the script since that is now promox default setting.

Starting with Debian Bookworm (Proxmox VE 8) non-free firmware (as defined by DFSG) has been moved to the newly created Debian repository component non-free-firmware.

Since Proxmox VE 9 this repository is enabled by default for new installations to ensure they can get Early OS Microcode Updates.

Proceed to try to install intel-microcode: worked fine
Rebooted: everything looks as normal.

Finally installed PVE 9 and tried it. Worked as expected. Just added the non-free-firmware that I bieleved should be there by default.

Also updated to PBS 4, it seems the no nag fix in (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/tools/pve/post-pbs-install.sh) doesn't work anymore there tho.

Not sure but it looks like you tried to pull from an enterprise repository without a license key. You should use ceph no subscription repository if you don't have a key. Checkout your sources and remove ceph enterprise repository, according to the script you already have the community one.

I thought the script was supposed to switch the enterprise source with a no-subscription one. The log states that it found the no-subscription repo which suggests that somehow I ended up with both. I might be missing something though.

Seems like previously the script would ask you if you wanted to create the sources and comment them. Seems like it did not differentiate if you already had it or not as long as you said yes.

Now it will add the no subscription ceph repo if you say yes and it's not already there. And overwrite the source file in the process. Since you already have ceph no subscription package it skips it. Then when you run apt update it tries to fetch the enterprise repository and fails.

This won't happen any time soon, as the mobile site is a completely new development and is completely different from what we had before. We'll have to spend hours looking to see where it is everywhere | by the way, for PVE8 it works for me?

Mobile-Subscription-NAG:
A patch like the one used in the classic Proxmox web interface is impossible for the new mobile GUI because the dialog is dynamically generated directly in the browser using WebAssembly (Yew/Rust) and JavaScript.
There is no longer a single JS or text file on the server that could be patched using sed as before – the logic is firmly integrated into the compiled .wasm and .js bundles and cannot be manipulated on the server side using simple on-board tools.
Therefore, only CSS overrides or browser user scripts can help at present, but not a genuine server-side removal of the dialog logic.

In short:
Classic patching of JS files using sed is no longer possible with the new Yew frontend, as the dialog is generated directly from compiled WebAssembly/JS.
A server-side fix is therefore no longer practical; only client-side workarounds (CSS/UserScript) are possible.

There is no longer a single JS or text file on the server that could be patched using sed as before – the logic is firmly integrated into the compiled .wasm and .js bundles and cannot be manipulated on the server side using simple on-board tools.
Therefore, only CSS overrides or browser user scripts can help at present, but not a genuine server-side removal of the dialog logic.

In short:
Classic patching of JS files using sed is no longer possible with the new Yew frontend, as the dialog is generated directly from compiled WebAssembly/JS.
A server-side fix is therefore no longer practical; only client-side workarounds (CSS/UserScript) are possible.

Is there some entrypoint html file?
If so, could a custom js be created by the script and integrated into this html file to nullify the behavior ?

No, I have searched the whole system, it is apparently only generated at runtime on the client. There is only two CSS, which I tried to patch, but even that was ignored, or was then like a “blocker” on the frontend.

If anyone has the time and inclination, they are welcome to have a look. Unfortunately there are hardly any more files for the new frontend. I think it will look like this in the real Proxmox frontend in the future.

Would you mind telling me the path were the mobile frontend is located please?

/usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/

~~Thanks, Trying to get 2 sed working but getting some trouble due to character escaping.~~

~~Here is 2 thing to add~~

~~CSS to hide the modal, and javascript to close it (so that you dont get blocked)~~

~~I have a sed for css~~

sed -i '/<\/head>/i\
<style id="custom-hide-modal-css">\
dialog.pwt-outer-dialog[aria-label="No valid subscription"] {\
  visibility: hidden !important;\
}\
</style>' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl

~~but I'm kind of blocked with escaping for the javascript one. It needs to add this script right before the body tag at the end~~

<script id="custom-close-modal-js">
const modal = document.querySelector('dialog.pwt-outer-dialog[aria-label="No valid subscription"]');

if (modal) {
  const closeButton = modal.querySelector('.fa-close');

  modal.style.visibility = 'hidden';

  // Simulate click on close button to avoid blocking the UI.
  if (closeButton) {
    closeButton.click();
  }
}
</script>

~~And here are cleanup scripts to remove them.~~

sed -i '/<script id="custom-close-modal-js">/,/<\/script>/d' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl
sed -i '/<style id="custom-hide-modal-css">/,/<\/style>/d' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl

EDIT: got it working

@Buco7854 commented on GitHub (Aug 7, 2025):

Got it working, CSS is not even needed can't see any flashing or something.
If someone experience the modal poping and being instantly deleted we can still add the css

CSS if needed

sed -i '/<\/head>/i <style id="custom-hide-subscription-nag-css">dialog.pwt-outer-dialog[aria-label="No valid subscription"]{visibility: hidden !important;}</style>' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl

Otherwise this should work on its own:

sed -i '/<\/head>/i <script id="custom-close-subscription-nag-js">document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",()=>{let e=new MutationObserver(()=>{let t=document.querySelector('\''dialog.pwt-outer-dialog[aria-label="No valid subscription"]'\'');if(t){let i=t.querySelector(".fa-close");t.style.visibility="hidden",i&&i.click(),e.disconnect()}});e.observe(document.body,{childList:!0,subtree:!0})});</script>' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl

Basically this script adds new javascript inside the head section of the html (could not make it work in body probably related to the template). Then it waits for page to load and when it loaded, everytime the body is changed, it tries to get the nag and click on close button so that it disappear. Once it found the nag it stops watching for new change in the body.

Cleanup for CSS

sed -i '/<style id="custom-hide-subscription-nag-css">.*<\/style>/d' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl

Cleanup for JS

sed -i '/<script id="custom-close-subscription-nag-js">.*<\/script>/d' /usr/share/pve-yew-mobile-gui/index.html.tpl

I believe the cleanup scripts (too avoid duplicate code) followed by the script itself should be run in the apt hook, the same as previous script was

I used your script on a new installed proxmox 9.0-1...

✓ Disabled 'pve-enterprise' repository
✓ Disabled 'ceph enterprise' repository
✓ Added 'pve-no-subscription' repository
✓ 'ceph' package repository (no-subscription) already exists (skipped)
✓ Added 'pvetest' repository
✓ Disabled subscription nag (Delete browser cache)
✗ Selected no to Disabling high availability
✓ Updated Proxmox VE
✓ Completed Post Install Routines

Your post-install-script seems to be working fine so far for me. Was able to perform upgrades. Now running pve 9.0.5 on my server.
