I'm setting up a Vagrant box with Ubuntu 20.04 behind a proxy and using apt-cacher as repository.

In the Vagrantfile I run (as root) these commands in this order:

apt-get -qq install -y docker docker-compose
...
apt-get -qq install -y mariadb-server mariadb-client
...
apt-get -qq install -y subversion wget libxrender1 libxtst6 libxi6 libgtk2.0-0 libidn11 libglu1-mesa

The second command, and only the second command does not work. The output has a bunch of 404, but I cannot paste it here because "it looks like spam"...

Inside che Box I have the following behaviour.

This command works: $ sudo apt-get update This command also works: $ sudo apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client

This command launched as root does not work: # apt-get update.

This is some of the output:

Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?)
...
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
E: The repository '...' is no longer signed.
...

This command launched as root does not work: # apt-get install mariadb-client mariadb-server With same 404 output as before.

What is going on?

  • The root account in Ubuntu is not enabled by default. That could be the cause. Prefer to use sudo. – vanadium May 13 '21 at 19:58
  • I don't think that's the issue. With root I was able to run two apt-get install and a bunch of other programs (snap, node, etc). The issues are with update, installation of mariadb and a couple of other software, but it's not the repository beacuse sudo works fine... – Delcaran May 14 '21 at 05:45
