Debian 11 apt update 404 issue

[yep]

I was following the wiki for installing ZM on debian and ran into 404s when trying to pull from the repo.

Code: Select all

Err:5 https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/release-1.34 bullseye Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 158.69.226.113 443]

I started debugging the update to see what was going on.

Code: Select all

sudo apt -oDebug::pkgAcquire::Worker=1 update

Seems it was expecting a /dists directory which is not present in the repo.

I changed the source.list to this in order to account for the missing directory in the repo.

Code: Select all

deb https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/release-1.36 ../bullseye main

I figured I would share this here for awareness.

EDIT:

Nevermind, it solved the 404, but now it doesn't like the distribution name.

Code: Select all

Hit:5 https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/release-1.36 ../bullseye Release

W: Conflicting distribution: https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/release-1.36 ../bullseye Release (expected ../bullseye but got bullseye)

EDIT2:

It seems since the repo as it's hosted right now does not support Debian 11's definition of a repo because it is not contained in this /dists directory: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianRepositor ... e.22_files

I'll install the 1.34 version in the meantime from Debian official source.

The instructions for Debian 11 don't work for me either, but the following string DOES work for me:

deb https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com/debian/release-1.36 bullseye/
