xcat/ubuntu - Signature issue #7480
Description
dear all,
I try to install xcat on an ubuntu 18.04 under Virtualbox.
I follow the tutorial : https://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guides/install-guides/apt/index.html
The "Prepare the Management Node" step seems ok.
However, during the "Installing xCAT", things goes wrong.
Whatever the installation mode (automatic or manual, root account),
I add the following message :
root@xcatmn:~# apt-get update
Get:1 file:/root/xcat-core bionic InRelease [2,582 B]
Get:1 file:/root/xcat-core bionic InRelease [2,582 B]
Err:1 file:/root/xcat-core bionic InRelease

E: The repository 'file:/root/xcat-core bionic InRelease' is not signed.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration detailsI try several different VM with different versions of xcat-core.
I also try with different keys downloaded from the xcat site.
I also try with an ubuntu 24.04 but give up because I learn that apt-key
is deprecated for this version and don't know how to deal with it.
Each time, I had the same issue... "The following signatures couldn't be verified..."
I also try using the flag " apt-get --allow-unauthenticated" ... same error message.
What do I miss ? Can you give me some hints ?
sincerely yours
Denis
