Install not downloading from mirrors

  • I installed OMV 4 this week, but being new configured my system incorrectly and decided to completely reinstall the OS yesterday. During the install it refused to download from any mirror. Then I tried to install OMV 5 with the same results. After checking, I believe the reason is that both OMV 4 & 5 use an older version of Debian that is no longer supported because it's EOL. I continued on with the install regardless, but now I have an operational OMV 5 with only half of the required programs to make it work. There are many services that I can not configure, and of course I have no plugins available. So my question is, can I continue with my current install and use a terminal command to update my system?? I tried to use update management in the web gui, but that didn't pull any updates. If I can use my SSH terminal, what is the command that I need to use. I'm new and dumb when it comes to linux, so it's best if you clearly identify the process. Thanks in advance.

    Nope. OMV 4.x uses Debian 9 and OMV 5.x uses the latest Debian release - Debian 10. Even OMV 3.x uses Debian 8.x which hasn't been EOL'd yet.

    What does this mean? What is the error?

    Updating from the command line does the same thing as the web interface. So, yes, it is ok. Post the output of (as root): apt-get update
