I’ve downloaded the WordPress 19 ISO and uploaded it to my Proxmox box. It shows up under ISO Images, but when I click Create CT it isn’t in the list of templates.
This is just a test site on a spare machine. I was aiming for a container because I already have a couple running there. Do I need a different download, or should I be using Create VM?
Hi Alex. You need a different download for a container. The ISO works with Create VM; Create CT needs an LXC template.
On your Proxmox node, open template storage such as local, then CT Templates → Templates. Search for wordpress, select the TurnKey 19.x entry, and download it. It should then be available in Create CT.
If you only see older releases, run pveam update in the Proxmox host’s shell, then reopen the list. The v19 Proxmox release post has the steps.
Once the container is running, open its console to finish the initial setup. You can keep the ISO if you decide you’d rather use a VM.
