Core: sudo apt-get upgrade fails

[stevenaharrison]

Problem encountered on https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/linux-package-manager/debian9/runtime-current
Operating System: Linux Debian 9 - x64

Provide details about the problem you are experiencing. Include your operating system version, exact error message, code sample, and anything else that is relevant.

Error Recieved: Failed to fetch https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/dists/stretch/InRelease Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?)

googling this seems to indicate a proxy issue, but I am not going through a proxy server. I can wget the same file no problem.

Thanks!

Getting the same error here, also running Debian 9:

Same issue, it's seems that there is some change on the repository yesterday.

I use the guide provided by Microsoft for a long time.
But now it's not working because of this error.

[Dennis-Petrov]

The same problem detected today when building docker images:

There were no any changes on our side.

This issue can be easily reproduced by running following commands in Debian:

curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/debian/9/prod.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mssql-release.list
sudo apt-get update

[Tob0t]

Same issue, cannot deploy anymore due to this bug :/
E: Failed to fetch https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/dists/stretch/InRelease Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?)
Any chances that this will be fixed in the next hours?

[pkisztelinski]

you can change version of debian from 9 to 10 :

curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/debian/10/prod.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mssql-release.list
sudo apt-get update

works fine in my situation

[bakgat]

I'm trying this to install msodbcsql17.
WIth debian 9 it worked till yesterday.
With debian 10 I get:
Package 'msodbcsql17' has no installation candidate

Any ideas where I can find 'msodbcsql17' for debian 10?

[axa-dfd]

We changed to debian 8 which let us install msodbcsql17 until we get debian 9 to work again.

[kitsuyui]

I encountered the same issue.
I think it relates this issue. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=884922
This issue explains older version of apt does not accept InRelease file that line ending with CR/LF and causes NOSPLIT error.

apt version of Debian 9 stretch is 1.4.9.
InRelease file seems to be broken for this version.

$ curl -s https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/8/prod/dists/jessie/InRelease | file -
/dev/stdin: ASCII text

$ curl -s https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/dists/stretch/InRelease | file -
/dev/stdin: ASCII text, with CRLF, LF line terminators

$ curl -s https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/10/prod/dists/buster/InRelease | file -
/dev/stdin: ASCII text

[mthidell]

I experience the same issue even with newer apt version which contains the fix.
I my case, on the Ubuntu "InRelease"
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=884922

$ curl -s https://packages.microsoft.com/ubuntu/18.04/prod/dists/bionic/InRelease | file -
/dev/stdin: ASCII text, with CRLF, LF line terminators

$ apt --version
apt 1.6.12 (amd64)

$ apt changelog apt
....
apt (1.6~alpha6) unstable; urgency=medium
  * Support cleartext signed InRelease files with CRLF line endings.
      Thanks to Lukas Wunner for detailed report & initial patch! (Closes: 884922)

[erik-wramner]

Is there any workaround for this? I'm trying to build a docker image based on an image that in turn was based on stretch. I can't change the base image and I need to install msodbcsql17 and mssql-tools. I can live with bypassing security temporarily if necessary or I could add some steps that download and fix the files, but I don't know how. Any pointers?

[kitsuyui]

@erik-wramner

I tried following workaround with downloading and installing manually.

Like this

mkdir /tmp/work
cd /tmp/work
curl -fsSLO https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/pool/main/m/msodbcsql17/msodbcsql17_17.4.2.1-1_amd64.deb
curl -fsSLO https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/pool/main/u/unixodbc/libodbc1_2.3.7_amd64.deb
curl -fsSLO https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/pool/main/u/unixodbc/odbcinst_2.3.7_amd64.deb
curl -fsSLO https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/pool/main/u/unixodbc/odbcinst1debian2_2.3.7_amd64.deb
curl -fsSLO https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/pool/main/u/unixodbc/unixodbc_2.3.7_amd64.deb
curl -fsSLO https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/pool/main/u/unixodbc/unixodbc-dev_2.3.7_amd64.deb
sudo env ACCEPT_EULA=Y apt-get install -qq -y ./*.deb
cd -

And this works.
Needless to say it is not good for security and manner.

This issue affects many products, I faced it when our docker image failed to build because of issues with PowerShell installation (we used this ugly script https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/a96b4c0/tools/install-powershell.sh on debian)

I temporary solved the problem as follows:

curl -LsSo pwsh.deb https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v6.2.3/powershell_6.2.3-1.debian.9_amd64.deb && dpkg -i pwsh.deb && apt-get install -f && rm pwsh.deb

[heinrich-ulbricht]

I'm also affected on Debian 9. Started searching for a solution some hours ago and now this ticket suddenly explodes :fire: Good :)
It worked until some weeks ago, the system configuration did not change in the meantime (no added proxy etc.).

[dooferorg]

Yea.. just came here to report this as well!

I was just trying to set up a new dotnet box today too. Sources were working the other day

[lochuynh]

I got the same issue, and It locked my release on next Monday, I cannot build a docker image on Azure pipeline anymore.
E: Failed to fetch https://packages.microsoft.com/debian/9/prod/dists/stretch/InRelease Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?)
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

[lochuynh]

Any workaround to build a docker image? I have a urgent release, please help.

[Himura2la]

@lochuynh Try this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-install-script

[amamounelsayed]

It is working for me now! Thank you!

[dagood]

I've sent a high-importance mail to the Microsoft Linux repository admins, will report back here as I have more info. Thanks everyone for reporting this. /cc @leecow

[dagood]

They confirmed this should be fixed now.

Do let us know if there are any problems with specific packages: the repository itself is fixed, but individual packages may still be broken. The repo admins are now working on identifying and fixing any cases where that's happened.

There was a change in the backend's signing infra that seems to have caused the initial issue when a team pushed a new package to the repo.

[heinrich-ulbricht]

Working for me now. Thanks!

Thanks @Himura2la.
It is working now, I am back on my schedule. Thanks

Can confirm, our CI systems cannot build artifacts depending on this repo.

[pkisztelinski]

version 9 and 10 doesnt work, 8 works fine in my situation

[Evoluti0n]

i have the same problem, in Debian 10

[rsnathan]

Does anyone know where this issue is being tracked as we are also facing the same issue with our CI systems failing

[dagood]

The current outage is being tracked at https://github.com/dotnet/core/issues/3988.

I'm going to lock this thread as resolved: I encourage everyone seeing this in the future to file new issues rather than add comments to this one. Because the issue is closed, new comments might not be seen by the right people in the future. A new issue is more likely to get noticed. There's nothing wrong with posting relevant comments to old issues, but I want to make sure outages are seen as soon as possible. Thanks!
