Installation Issues on Ubuntu

[techmattr]

Here is what I get:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -i ./veeam-release* && apt-get update
(Reading database ... 64919 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack .../veeam-release-deb_1.0_amd64.deb ...

W: Problem unlinking the file /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin - RemoveCaches (13: Permission denied)
W: Problem unlinking the file /var/cache/apt/srcpkgcache.bin - RemoveCaches (13: Permission denied)

I'm obviously running as root so I don't know why I'm getting permission errors. I can install other software and use apt update alone without issue.

Any ideas?

If you are root and you run it without sudo what do you get?

Hi,

As far as i know && does not inherit sudo. Please run it as:

sudo dpkg -i ./veeam-release* && sudo apt-get update

Thank you
