An important thing to avoid when using Ubuntu or Debian: using the wrong repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list for your version of Debian or Ubuntu. I just installed Debian Stretch, but set up it up using Debian Jessie repositories accidentally. 😜 #debian #debianstretch #debian9

Installing apache karaf on debian

Until the RFP (Request For Packaging) bug for karaf in the debian bug tracker is resolved, here is an APT archive with a karaf package for debian (architecture “all”).  The package is created using native debian packaging tools, and built from a source tarball and the APT archive itself is created, using aptly.

The package has been tested on Debian 9 “stretch” (the current stable), amd64.

Do the following commands as root on a debian GNU/linux system:

1. Add the keys for the APT archive (Edit: needed to sign with the first key in the keyring because of an aptly bug, must add this key as well, if using the repository)

   wget -O - https://apt.bang.priv.no/apt_pub.gpg | apt-key add -wget -O - https://apt.bang.priv.no/maven_pub.gpg | apt-key add -

2. Open the /etc/apt/sources.list file in a text editor, and add the following lines:

   # APT archive for apache karafdeb http://apt.bang.priv.no/public stable main

3. Install karaf with apt-get

   apt-get updateapt-get install openjdk-8-jdk karaf

4. Log in with SSH (password is “karaf” (without the quotes)) and try giving some commands:

   ssh -p 8101 karaf@localhost
