APT snapshot installation notice

Setup, Configuration and Use Runtime

WARNING: THIS IS OUTDATED INFORMATION - the snapshots are now hosted on Artifactory, see this post. Please DO NOT USE the URLs that point to Cloudbees anymore!

Everyone,

please take note, that @theo just improved the snapshot repository on CloudBee to serve signed packages. This is a step forward but actions are needed on your side!

Description

If you are working with an existing apt snapshot setup from before 2016-09-23, the following error will be presented when you try to apt-get update:

W: GPG error: https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com  InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F834FE4EEAC1183A
W: GPG error: https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com  InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F834FE4EEAC1183A

You may also see:

W: Failed to fetch https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-offline/target/apt-repo/Packages  Hash Sum mismatch
W: Failed to fetch https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-online/target/apt-repo/Packages  Hash Sum mismatch

Or you could be stuck with an old build of openHAB 2 without apt-get suggesting an upgrade for more than one week. This is also the case if you still see the version “2.0.0~SNAPSHOT”.

Solve

Add the signing key to your apt keyring:

wget -qO - http://www.openhab.org/keys/public-key-snapshots.asc | sudo apt-key add -

Then clean the apt cache so the changes in the repository are accepted:

# Clean
sudo apt-get clean
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
# Fetch all the newest from the repository 
sudo apt-get update
# Upgrade openHAB
sudo apt-get upgrade

At this point apt should suggest an openHAB 2 upgrade.
If it does not, reinstall openHAB 2. Do not worry, your configuration and userdata will not be deleted in the process:

sudo apt remove openhab2-offline
sudo apt install openhab2-offline
# you may need to replace "offline" by "online"
sudo systemctl enable openhab2.service
sudo systemctl start openhab2.service

Verify

Your system is up to date if the command

dpkg -s openhab2-offline | grep Version
# you may need to replace "offline" by "online"

returns “Version: 2.0.0~20160923010346” with the shown or a newer timestamp.

For those not running as root, it’s the last bit that needs sudo privileges.

wget -qO - 'http://www.openhab.org/keys/public-key-snapshots.asc' | sudo apt-key add -

Thanks @Benjy, I’ve corrected that bit.

Hello,
When executing “sudo apt-get update” I get the following error message. I have executed the above mentioned line.

W: Fehlschlag beim Holen von https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-offline/target/apt-repo/Packages  Hash-Summe stimmt nicht ĂĽberein
W: Fehlschlag beim Holen von https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-online/target/apt-repo/Packages  Hash-Summe stimmt nicht ĂĽberein

It’s german but means “error when getting … hash sum mismatch”

my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openhab.list
looks like this:

deb https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-offline/target/apt-repo/ /
deb https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-online/target/apt-repo/ /

which should be fine right?

6

I feared this would happen. Your system is still clinging to the old ways :slight_smile:

Please first do the following:

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

if you get the same error again, go one step further:

sudo apt-get clean
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
sudo apt-get update

Let us know which worked for you. I’ll update above

The second one worked! Thanks for the help!

edit:
Interestingly, no new update was found (I am on the openhab2-online snapshot). I haven’t updated in a few weeks, is this normal?

8

+1: Same for me

9

There are updates nearly every day: https://oss.jfrog.org/webapp/#/builds/openHAB-Distribution
You should be able to upgrade. What do dpkg -s openhab2-online | grep Version and apt-get show openhab2-online | grep Version say?

10

apt-cache show openhab2-offline says: Version: 2.0.0~20160923010346
dpkg -s openhab2-offline says: Version: 2.0.0~b4

11

These are the different commands I tried

pi@openhabpi2:~ $ dpkg -s openhab2-online | grep Version
Version: 2.0.0~SNAPSHOT

pi@openhabpi2:~ $ apt-cache policy openhab2-online

@SpaceGlider You are still on “SNAPSHOT”. That’s roughly one month old I would guess. You should be able to make the jump by apt install --reinstall openhab2-online.

13

Oh I see. I wanted to stay on the latest build as mentioned for SNAPSHOT here: http://docs.openhab.org/installation/linux.html#package-repository-installation

So isn’t SNAPSHOT the latest one? Or did I miss something?

and another edit:

pi@openhabpi2:~ $ sudo apt install --reinstall openhab2-online

@Boby: yours is up to date. Did you do a remove and install as suggested in the other thread?

@SpaceGlider While I know how you could solve this, I’m still looking for the most elegant and least destructive solution… Give me a sec.

@ThomDietrich no hurry. you’re already my hero. :slight_smile:

@ThomDietrich: Yes, I did a remove (without purge) and a complete new install. Seems like all config files have survived this procedure :smiley:

Thanks @Boby and @SpaceGlider, the first post is updated and should hopefully work for everyone.

@ThomDietrich thank you for the help, the update worked. Additionally, I had to re-enable the service after reinstalling so that it will boot on startup. Maybe worth to mention on the first post.

On an unrelated note - I would like to ask a question on the Hardware section of the Forum but it seems that I can’t. What is that related to? Thank you.

Done. Thanks. You need to post in one of the subcategories.
