Upgrading Proxmox PVE from version 5.1.x to 5.1.43 and install community repo and GPG key


UPGRADING PROXMOX PVE version 5.1 to its newer version!

This is the solution / fix if you encounter this error during 'apt-get update'

The repository 'https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch Release' does not have a Release file.

The steps below will upgrade your Proxmox PVE, mine was updated:

from: pve-manager/5.1-35/722cc488 (running kernel: 4.13.4-1-pve)
to:     pve-manager/5.1-43/bdb08029 (running kernel: 4.13.13-5-pve)

STEP 1:  Remove subscription REPO

cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
rm pve-enterprise.list

STEP 2:  Add regular REPO

echo "deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch pve-no-subscription" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-install-repo.list

STEP 3:  Download and Install GPG Key

wget http://download.proxmox.com/debian/proxmox-ve-release-5.x.gpg -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-ve-release-5.x.gpg

After the pre-requisite steps above you can then execute the following standard distribution upgrade:

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

OPTIONAL (clean up - to free up disk space):

apt-get purge
apt-get clean
apt-get autoclean


Checking you new PVE version using:

pveversion
