[SOLVED] Source list error when trying to update yunohost on stretch

brawcks · November 8, 2020, 7:37pm

My YunoHost server

Hardware: Dedicated debian 9 server (OVH / Kimsufi)

YunoHost version:
yunohost:
repo: now
version: 3.7.1.3
yunohost-admin:
repo: now
version: 3.7.1.1
moulinette:
repo: now
version: 3.7.1.1
ssowat:
repo: now
version: 3.7.1.1

I have access to my server : Through SSH AND through the webadmin

Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : no

Description of my issue

Hello there ! I’m actually struggling on how i could update yunohost to version 3.8.5.x as i want to migrate my server to debian 10, and yunohost aswell.

Actually, i’m getting some errors when i try to update :

Warning: E: The repository 'http://repo.yunohost.org/debian stretch Release' does not have a Release file.

Here is the source list of yunohost (when i remove it, i can update every other packages) :

admin@platform:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yunohost.list
deb http://repo.yunohost.org/debian/ stretch stable

I guess i just don’t have the right version of the source list, perhaps after searching for it, i couldn’t find the good one.

Can someone help me out ?

Thanks by the way !

Happy coding all

Not sure how you ended up in that situation because that should have been changed automatically somehow, but the debian repo is now forge.yunohost.org and not repo.yunohost.org …

Hello there ! First thanks for your reply, second sorry for my late reply

I’ve changed it to forge, and i’m still facing this issue :

E: The repository 'http://forge.yunohost.org/debian stretch Release' does no longer have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.

Here is my source list for yunohost :

admin@platform:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yunohost.list
deb http://forge.yunohost.org/debian/ stretch stable

When i comment the line, everything is good, except that i can’t upgrade btw

Any ideas ?

Djeez, apt is always so explicit about the error messages … (no it isnt)

Let’s try to see if this works then :

curl https://forge.yunohost.org/debian/dists/stretch/Release | head -n 2

Do you see

Origin: YunoHost

I agree

Yes i see it :

Alternatively you can try to run apt update (not apt-get update) because some people on the internets claim it can fix this kind of issue for mystical reasons

brawcks · November 13, 2020, 2:27pm

Hemmmm… WOW !

I’ll read some docs for this, you are right, here it was from the other side : Apparently, apt-get has solved the issue (i was just using apt before).

Pretty strange … But still, Big up to you Time to migrate now

Aleks · November 13, 2020, 2:31pm

Well … here’s yet another example of why it’s important to always provide the FULL LOGS

The message about “does no longer have a Release file.” was a red-herring. You real issue was :

server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none

Not sure how that got fixed, maybe something behind the scene, but running apt-get vs. apt seems to have no relation …

brawcks · November 13, 2020, 2:34pm

Well, my bad, next time ill provide full logs

Maybe one of the curl of apt-get command fetched a new cert on the server, while the usual apt command isn’t and provide an old cert ?

Thanks still !

Aleks · November 13, 2020, 2:37pm

Yeah i dunno, I saw some funky stuff about certificates these past month which made me lose faith in computer even more than before. At this point I’m just convinced computers are not powered by silicon and electrons, but by evil little monkeys creating random issues all over the place ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

brawcks · November 13, 2020, 2:42pm

Hope you’re wrong, but facts says you’re right haha Anyway, thanks for help
