NginX install failed

[db_vk]

Hi,

as proposed in lection 2 I did

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y ca-certificates nginx 

but the installation failed with

Err:16 https://build.openvpn.net/debian/openvpn/stable focal Release
  Certificate verification failed: The certificate is NOT trusted. The certificate chain uses expired certificate.  Could not handshake: Error in the certificate verification. [IP: 18.196.214.178 443]

E: The repository 'http://build.openvpn.net/debian/openvpn/stable focal Release' no longer has a Release file.
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 details.

therefore

sudo systemctl status nginx
Unit nginx.service could not be found.

how to fix that in the course rosject ?

Hi @db_vk,

thank you very much for reporting this error, caused because the certificates for OpenVPN has expired.

While we solve the problem, you could remove the openvpn-related APT files using the following command:

sudo rm -fv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openvpn-aptrepo.list

After doing that, you should be able to install nginx with no problems.

Cheers,

Hi @db_vk,

Thank you very much for reporting it. We wouldn’t have it fixed today if weren’t for your help.
