proxmox : fix updates

Posted on July 16, 2015  •  1 minutes  • 175 words  •  Suggest Changes

I love proxmox, its cool it works and its very user friendly. The only pain point is, they try to sell their  subscription really hard. In such an attempt they even change the default update location to something that will throw an error when not having a subscription!

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Changing them is easy enough :

nano /etc/apt/sources.list

add

note : this is for wheezy

# pve updates
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian wheezy pve-no-subscription

For jessie :

deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian jessie pve-no-subscription

Also remove this one :

rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list

If you now run a  apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade no errors should be there ! (dist-upgrade !)

 

Note : There is also a official wiki, where one can see the same changes : proxmox wiki
