Confused about Debian Install and Configuration

Post by erhammer »

I just installed the debian package on my debian 10 server. It looks like it didn't do anything. No new files, no new binaries. I assume this is not the proper installation result?
I didn't see anything in the user guide about what to do after installation, veeam and sudo veeam don't work. I assume I am missing some critical piece of configuration instructions somewhere?

This is the guide I used: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=50
That guide goes straight from the apt install to configuring user permissions.

Code: Select all

$ uname -a
Linux  4.19.0-17-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.194-3 (2021-07-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Code: Select all

$ sudo apt install ./veeam-release-deb_1.0.8_amd64.deb 
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'veeam-release-deb' instead of './veeam-release-deb_1.0.8_amd64.deb'
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  veeam-release-deb
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/5,850 B of archives.
After this operation, 4,096 B of additional disk space will be used.
Get:1 /home/user/veeam-release-deb_1.0.8_amd64.deb veeam-release-deb amd64 1.0.8 [5,850 B]
Selecting previously unselected package veeam-release-deb.

Preparing to unpack .../veeam-release-deb_1.0.8_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking veeam-release-deb (1.0.8) ...

Code: Select all

$ veeam
-bash: veeam: command not found

Code: Select all

$ sudo veeam
sudo: veeam: command not found

Hello,
that package adds Veeam repositories to the package manager (apt).

I'm missing the

Code: Select all

apt-get update
from step 2 in your description

Step 3 on the page you linked to says

Code: Select all

apt-get install veeam
once step 2 & 3 are finished, the veeam command will be available.

Best regards,
Hannes
