Re: [HTCondor-users] trouble get started

[Lee Gramling <leegramling@xxxxxxxxx>]

Further investigation shows I was using this repo for my deb package:
deb http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/debian/stable/ squeeze contrib

(this is by following this pages instructions: http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/v8.4/3_2Installation_Start.html#SECTION00427000000000000000 )

Using the link that Brian gave, I tried to follow this page:
https://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/ubuntu/

but get this error when running apt-get update

W: Failed to fetch http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/ubuntu/stable/dists/trusty/InRelease Unable to find expected entry 'contrib/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I am on Kubuntu 14.04.2 64bit

I did an early test using the deb package but found that the one from the apt-get repo was a very old version. Can you tell me which version of htcondor you got?

Thanks

I know this isn't helping you with your specific problem, but I install htcondor under Ubuntu from the deb package repositories rather than from the tarball, and don't have any problem.
