Installation on Raspberry Pi 3B and Raspbian Buster Lite

hi.
Trying to install Symcon on a Pi.
its a model 3B with Raspbian Buster Lite.

It stoppes for me at:
sudo apt-get install symcon
-it seems like it cant fint symcon on any server or something?

might be some fault in this line??
„echo „deb http://apt.symcon.de/ stable rpi“ | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/symcon.list“

I follow that guide, step by step with copy-paste from Putty.

it also say Symcon is listed to many times in a list… (I did edit that list, removed some duplications, and still dont work)

or is there something with
„wget -qO - http://apt.symcon.de/symcon.key | sudo apt-key add -“ ?

  • do i need anything More in that line?

PLEASE helpe me get rid of that windows 7-PC so i can use the PI

Can you post the full output of your „sudo apt-get update“ command?

paresy

thanks for fast reply!

„sudo apt-get update“

from the guide - Raspberry Pi — IP-Symcon :: Automation Software

i tried to edit post, but the site just turned German :stuck_out_tongue: ehm…
i will need to get home, and try to copy the output of Sudo apt get update.

thanks.
