Hi,

I am unable to install Percona MySQL 5.7.x software “Client, Common, etc” on Debian 10 buster.

I have used these command a bunch of times on different servers, but now this is failing?

apt install gnupg2
wget https://repo.percona.com/apt/percona-release_latest.$(lsb_release -sc)_all.deb
dpkg -i percona-release_latest.$(lsb_release -sc)_all.deb
apt update
apt-ge install percona-server-common-5.7 percona-server-client-5.7

percona-release show
The following repositories are enabled on your system:
<*> All done!

dpkg -l | grep -i mysql
ii mysql-common 5.8+1.0.5 all MySQL database common files, e.g. /etc/mysql/my.cnf
ii php7.3-mysql 7.3.33-1+0~20211119.91+debian10~1.gbp618351 amd64 MySQL module for PHP

percona-release setup ps80

Hi @jbiancot , welcome back to the Percona forums!

I’m not on a debian 10 installation but perhaps you could try the command percona-release setup ps-80 (note the hypen)

Hi @jbiancot
I tried to reproduce your issue but without success. Everything works well and I installed requested packages.
Most probably it is because there is a typo in one of your commands apt-ge instead of apt-get
please try apt-get install percona-server-common-5.7 percona-server-client-5.7
also percona-release setup ps80 works as expected

vagrant@debian-10:~$ sudo percona-release setup ps80

Hi, I have another Debian 10 VM, it’s weird. I am still having the same issue

I changed the /etc/apt/sources.list to use on the VM I have the issues, withthe sources.list from the VM I don’t have the issue, and I changed from http to https

deb Index of /debian buster main
deb-src Index of /debian buster main

deb Index of /debian-security buster/updates main contrib
deb-src Index of /debian-security buster/updates main contrib

buster-updates, previously known as ‘volatile’

deb Index of /debian buster-updates main contrib
deb-src Index of /debian buster-updates main contrib

But even with that, I am still getting issues:

I tried with:

percona-release_1.0-25.generic_all.deb
percona-release_1.0-26.generic_all.deb
percona-release_1.0-27.generic_all.deb, which is latest

The repository does not exist???
If I open those 2link using Firefox, I have not problem reaching those URLs.

One thing I notice, the warning/error is about http:// but if I try manually from the server, https:// it could be reach

Any ideas why using the same Debian 10, and the same sources (APT) file, I will get different results?

Cheers,
