Re: [Apt-proxy-users] apt-proxy: 404 is not serviced by this server

[John H. <Joh...@tr...>]

Chris,

Thanks for the tips. However, I thought I would reply to complete the =
picture now that I have solved my problem.

It took a while for me to realise that the /etc/apt/sources.list could/shou=
ld be the same for both the apt-proxy server and the client machines.

My working sources.list now contains the following, where images is a DNS =
alias pointing to my apt-proxy server:
deb http://images:9999/main stable main contrib non-free
deb http://images:9999/non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
deb-src http://images:9999/main stable main contrib non-free

The broken sources.list contained the following:
deb http://images:9999/debian stable main=20

The key difference was that 'debian' had to be changed to 'main' to get =
everything working with apt-proxy 1.3.0.

I didn't install apt-proxy from unstable, as I am not sure how to mix =
unstable packages with stable ones yet.

Regards,

John

Hi John,

You need to edit /etc/apt-proxy/apt-proxy.conf.  sources.list is only for
apt, not for apt-proxy - the syntax is different.

I would recommend you install version 1.3.3 (the version in unstable) - it
has much improved documentation and works on Woody too.

Chris
