Machine: docker-machine create fails for ubuntu-xenial (16.04) host

[FireballDWF]

docker-machine create fails on attempt install to a ubuntu-xenial (Beta 1) host due to http status 403 from https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/dists/ubuntu-xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages 403 Forbidden
which can also be observed via this release (acknowledged still in Beta) not available at https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/dists/

Release date is 4/21/16 per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseSchedule thus is less than 6 weeks away, so please start have a repo for this upcoming release

[MrSpock]

Same here HTTP 403:

Same issue here. I'm running 16.04 on bare metal, but can't get the xenial or wily repos to pull down a package file.

[FireballDWF]

@nathanleclaire You have at least 3 users who care enough about this to take the time to comment. Can support please be added? 22 days until GA release. Final Beta already released.

[nathanleclaire]

@FireballDWF Thanks for reporting the issue. Does using the get.docker.com script directly work? We rely on this, so if it doesn't work for 16.04, there's not much we can do in Machineland in the near future to support it.

However, the good news is that even if the install script is not working today, it's very likely to be modified by upstream to start working soon. And, naturally, both Machine (if needed) and https://github.com/docker/docker will happily accept pull requests to enable this. Keep in mind also that right now most Docker projects are distracted preparing and fixing bugs for the next release, which will happen in ~2 weeks. So, that's currently taking priority over new features.

[FireballDWF]

No, it's still failing, but failure has changed. Someone in control of https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/dists/ubuntu-xenial/ created that last subdir within past few hours, but has not yet published the actual docker-engine package to that subdir of your website, as of 19:17 ET.

Said another way, this is not a "source code is not working issue", it's a "binary-code" package is not deployed to where your script/code expects it to be for this named release of ubuntu.

Hi, I need to install docker in Ubuntu 16.04, but I keep getting: Unable to locate package docker-engine .

[cablespaghetti]

If you change the repository from main to testing it'll work for now until
a tested package is released.

+1 not able to install docker on ubuntu 16.04 bare metal.
@geekflyer

[nathanleclaire]

I thought that upstream supported this, I will try and see if I can get it to work and whinge at @tiborvass if it doesn't ;)

[nathanleclaire]

Ah, OK, looking around there seems to be an existing issue and I'm sure they're working on it.

[tiborvass]

@FireballDWF @nathanleclaire fixed

[tiborvass]

Ref: https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/22182

[nathanleclaire]

MRW @tiborvass is on the case

[hans-permana]

I know this issue has been closed, but unfortunately I still got 403 Error message:

W: The repository 'https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial Release' does not have a Release file.

and this is what I have in my docker.list file:

deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial main

Do I miss anything?

[hans-permana]

Just an additional to the previous comment, the http version of the repository link works fine for me.

[chinaares]

I have the same error on ubuntu 16.04,which install on openstack vm.

[eric-lopez]

I have the same error on Ubuntu 16.04.01

[jonathanjbbr]

I have the same problem too.

[caneraydinbey]

+1

[ferOnti]

I had issue with yakkety
but I modified the sources.list and use the xenial dist

vi /etc/apt/sources.list

In order to check which dists are available, check this link:
https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/dists

[faddat]

Yeah,what gives Docker, why not just keep pace with Ubuntu?

Having this issue w/ yakkety.

[nagavenkatab]

Acquire::https::apt.dockerproject.org::Verify-Peer "false";

try adding the above line to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01docker and do apt update

[code0100fun]

For anyone else running 16.10 (yakkety) you can install the release candidate instead:

curl -fsSL https://test.docker.com | sh

Refer to this issue: https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/27521

[bdmorin]

New DO droplet, 16.04.1, official install instructions failing, fixed with:

/etc/apt/sources.list: deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/ ubuntu-xenial main

[digitalica]

@bdmorin the change you suggested had exactly same result for me as without change...

last part of apt-get update output:

[MarcosBermudez]

@digitalica I think you dident change correctly the sources.list you must also remove "pool" from url

Not work

deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/pool/ xenial main

Working
deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/ ubuntu-xenial main

[mevatron]

I can definitely second @MarcosBermudez findings. Either the guide is wrong or the repo is wrong. One should be fixed :P

[digitalica]

@MarcosBermudez was right. I removed 'pool' and now apt-get update works fine. So I agree with @mevatron. Fix in guide is already done in pullrequest by @stevenh

[durandaltheta]

I third MarcosBermudez findings. The instructions are wrong, instead of
$ sudo add-apt-repository \ "deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/pool/ \ $(lsb_release -cs) \ main"
It should be:
$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/ $(cat /etc/issue | awk '{print $1}' | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')-$(lsb_release -cs) main"

[durandaltheta]

The $(cat /etc/issue | awk '{print $1}' | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')-$(lsb_release -cs) is to produce ubuntu-xenial

[gaboesquivel]

deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/ ubuntu-xenial main works

[berny9015]

It seems it is the problem with aliyun mirror, and I solved this problem by removing Acquire::http::Proxy "http://mirrors.aliyun.com/"; in /etc/apt/apt.conf

Reference: https://gist.github.com/llgxvi/19d1666a7f0b5d8d9237707daf479120

[aitorbk]

One year on, still doesnt work....
Edit: I was at fault, please disregard this comment.

Note: problem was my dev machine (not the rest) is running Mint, so the "lsb_release -cs" doesn't get the expected string. It was obvious but I did not see it.

[thaJeztah]

@aitorbk I know there have been people that were able to install docker over the last year. Can you open a new issue if you are running into issues, with more details?

[aitorbk]

Absolutely my fault, will edit the comment.

[dikirill]

Yes, using latest Linux Mint 18.3 you just need to run:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu xenial stable"

[caroso1222]

Not sure if this is relevant but I landed here looking for this error

W: The repository 'https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
E: Failed to fetch https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/dists/ubuntu-xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Fixed it by running this command, as proposed here.

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker*

That file contained the entry deb [arch=amd64] ... which is the conflicting one.
