Error when trying to change to testing version

Due to a failed SD card I am setting up the latest build of Openhabian on my Raspberry Pi 3+

Unfortunately when I try to change to the latest testing build I get the following error.

I have tried running this command based on other error reported but my result hasn’t changed.

wget -qO - 'https://bintray.com/user/downloadSubjectPublicKey?username=openhab' | sudo apt-key add -

What am I missing?

Thanks.

Hi @gforce2010,

Sorry to say that you’re not missing anything. This is currently an intermittent bug with the service we use to host our testing repository. The problem comes and goes quite often so might be available later today. Please see this: https://www.jfrog.com/jira/browse/RTFACT-21640

As you can see, the issue has been marked as resolved but affects the version that we are on (6.18.1). As soon as JFrog updates our Artifactory instance to the next version, the bug will be fixed. (@Kai I’m assuming we can’t check for updates ourselves here?)
