Cause

The pp*-nginx application templates are outdated because Nginx has its own repository and separate application templates. Thus, such application templates are to be removed.

Resolution

Remove the pp*-nginx application templates from the server for all OS distributions and force an update of metadata from the server.

  1. Remove templates:

    ~# vzpkg list | awk '$2~/^pp.*-nginx$/{print$1" "$2}' | while read os app; do vzpkg remove template -F $os $app; done

  2. Update metadata, in this case for the debian-7.0-x86_64 OS template:

    ~# vzpkg update metadata debian-7.0-x86_64 -r
