Hi,

Any help appreciated. The GUI was showing a apt-get update failure error:100, which had been working. I checked the enterprise repository was commented out and it is.

My shallow puddle of knowledge dried up really quickly

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download/proxmox.com/debian stretch pve-no-subscription (because of /, there should be . between download and proxmox)

this is wrong, here is the correct sources.list:


deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib

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

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian stretch pve-no-subscription
# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates main contrib
