Fortinet not running in EveNG

Post by boydreamer » Fri May 08, 2026 9:44 am

Hi,

I have installed the eve-ng in Proxmox platform, when I add the FTG image and run, it failed to start up.

I see a lot of post to change the eve-ng VM processor type to host, I done it but still failed. Tried increasing the FTG image memory but still the same.

I increase also the number of core and sockets of the VM but still failed, try running permission command still failed. :( anyone know how to fix the issue?

Proxmox v8.4.0
FTG v7.4.12 (downloaded from Fortinet portal)
FTG v7.2.4

1. Update templates and scripts by following this guide https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/docume ... -from-git/
2. Try different qemu versions in the node settings.
