Is expedition installation scrip still functional?

[ibge]

Hello, I've create a Ubuntu 16.04 machine, downloaded the script, ran it as a root but at the end I get some errors. If I try to access the web gui I get to the Ubuntu Apache2 default page. I googled for this problem and the answers say thta this happens when expedition repository is down. I checked and the repository is installed, I ran apt-get update and sudo apt-get install expedition-beta which retruns that it's unable to llocate package expedition-beta. So I would like to ask how can I fix it these days, is expedition still being developed and maintained? Regards.

Hello @ibge 

Go ahead and run the following commands and that output should give you some idea on why it's failing.

sudo ./initSetup.sh | tee installoutput.log

Within that log file you should see what the issue is. If the apache page doesn't work and you cannot install expedition-beta that would mean the install didn't properly work.

Thanks, I've reviewd the output and it happens that it pointed out to the same issue, it could not locate expedition-beta.

I followed the instructions in this link:

https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/expedition-discussions/unable-to-update-expedition-quot-expedit...

After adding what was suggested I could run apt-get update to the end but when I try to install expedition-beta it still can't locate this package.

E: Unable to locate package expedition-beta

I can't see any list related to conversionupdates on /var/lib/apt/lists after runnig apt-get update.

Edit: actually it's there, there are three packages listed including expedition-beta, expedition2-beta and expedition2-converter-beta it's still unable to locate.

 Hello @ibge 

Am also facing same issue, can you please help me how you resolved it.

[ibge · Accepted solution]

@shubhamG @azuniga In my case I was running i386 ubuntu iso hence the "unable to locate issue". Make sure you're running AMD 64-bit version of the iso.

[azuniga]

@ibge Yes thank you for that 64-bit ubuntu server is required for this install.

I encountered the same issue. To resolve it, look for this line:
echo 'deb https://conversionupdates.paloaltonetworks.com/ expedition-updates/' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ex-repo.list
replace it with this:
echo 'deb [trusted=yes] https://conversionupdates.paloaltonetworks.com/ expedition-updates/' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ex-repo.list

That is what worked for me.

[franklinalterio]

I figured out how to use sed to update the installer. Sorry, I'm not good with sed.

sed -i "s/echo 'deb https:\/\/conversionupdates/echo 'deb [trusted=yes] https:\/\/conversionupdates/g" initSetup.sh
