[SOLVED] Cannot set installation to No-Subscription

[llamprec]

Greetings to everyone.

I have received some feedback and guidance about my Proxmox installation. My installation is on a single server and it was installed so that I could learn about proxmox, how it worked and what was needed to support the product.

When I did the installation, I was not aware of the different subscription possibilities. After a discussion in a chat, I was told that I should change my subscription to the No Subscription. The details on how to change it was provided in the following link.

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_Repositories#sysadmin_no_subscription_repo

The recommendation was to update the sources.list file and change the location where to download the proxmox updates from.
I did as instructed but I am still seeing the popup telling me that I do not have a subscription plan for my installation.

this is the pop up I see each time I login to my server.



below is the contents of my source.list file.

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye main contrib
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates main contrib

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-no-subscription

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib

Can anyone please tell me why I still see the pop up?

Thanks
Lawrence

Hi,

the pop up will stay in place until you buy and activate a subscription. The recommendation about using the no subscription repository for apt is unrelated to the pop up. Unless you buy a subscription, you cannot use the subscription repositories and apt will report an error each time you try to do an update. Hence, unless you buy a subscription the pop up will stay in place and you should still use the no subscription repositories.
