Re: [security-onion] Installation process struck at apt-get install securityonion-all

[Doug Burks]

Hi Sankara,

Did you follow the instructions here?
https://code.google.com/p/security-onion/wiki/Installation#If_you_want_to_quickly_evaluate_Security_Onion_on_your_preferred

Specifically, did you run these commands?
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:securityonion/stable
sudo apt-get update

Hope that helps!

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug,

I have the same issue and yes I did follow the instructions from wiki.
roman@ThinkPad:~$ sudo apt-get -y install python-software-properties

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

python-software-properties is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
language-pack-zh-hans language-pack-kde-en language-pack-kde-zh-hans language-pack-kde-en-base kde-l10n-engb kde-l10n-zhcn
language-pack-zh-hans-base language-pack-kde-zh-hans-base
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

I really would like to use this way ("Installing with your preferred flavor of Ubuntu 12.04") as I don't have possibility so far to use 64bit system.

Do you know what's wrong?

Hi Roman,

"apt-get update" should produce output, but it looks like it didn't
when you ran it. Try running it again. If it still doesn't produce
any output, verify that you have full outbound Internet access. If it
still doesn't work, you might want to check the Ubuntu site for
additional help as this isn't really an issue specific to Security
Onion.
