On Ubuntu 20.04 I am trying to run the following command

sudo apt-get update

which fails with the following error:

E: Failed to fetch https://dl.bintray.com/loadimpact/deb/dists/stable/InRelease  403  Forbidden [IP: 35.158.216.221 443]
E: The repository 'https://dl.bintray.com/loadimpact/deb stable InRelease' is not signed.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

I already tried to remove stuff like this

sudo rm -fr /var/lib/apt/lists/*

but this did not help. Anything else I can try to fix this problem?

  • No it does not. There is no mention of "InRelease" in the file "/etc/apt/sources.list". So I could not remove any offending line in that file. – Alex Jun 30 '21 at 08:12
  • Nope. Just searched and grep'ed all files in that folder – Alex Jun 30 '21 at 08:15
  • I did uncomment a line "deb https://dl.bintray.com/loadimpact/deb stable main" and now it works. Should I replace that line with something else? – Alex Jun 30 '21 at 08:21
  • Check the file /etc/apt/sources.list and and any files in the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d – anssi Jun 30 '21 at 06:22
  • And what exactly should I look for? – Alex Jun 30 '21 at 06:24

Open up the Software & Updates app

Click on the Other Software tab

Unselect http://dl.bintray.com/loadimpact/debian / or something similar if that is not there

select the close button.

sudo apt-get update

should now work

  • For server, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the line deb https://dl.bintray.com/loadimpact/deb stable main – Shakil Jan 12 '22 at 15:32
