File or Directory not found - in Ubuntu

[RouterRat]

I have the same problem. This is not an issue for the Debian as ispCP documentation is up to date for Squeezy.

For new version of the Ubuntu this part from Documentation is not Noob-Friendly anymore

Quote: 4. Install the ispCP required packages
# aptitude install $(cat ./docs/Ubuntu/ubuntu-packages-`lsb_release -cs`)

If you copy and paste that in Ubuntu you get;

Quote:cat: ./docs/Ubuntu/ubuntu-packages-oneiric: No such file or directory
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.

I guess new path for lsb_release needs to be modified in the documentation.

How can we find the new path to the lsb_release?

Thanks. and also Extra thanks for %100 Noob-Friendly Debian documentation


The only reason I am trying to use Ubuntu is because I wanted to do a Dynamic DNS service through no-ip.com and there was no setup instructions for Debian but for ubuntu itwas apt-get install no-ip or noip2

I you really not know, what this mean, it would be better, not to work with
an own server.

man lsb_release
Would really be better, to rent a managed server system for you.

tombhb,

When users follow(copy & paste ) the Debian documentation the 4th. parth of the documentation which is installing lsb_release works fine.

But,

when users follow Ubuntu documentation and copy&paste the lsb_Release command it does not work.

Beginner users can not install lsb_release.

Now what is ""man lsb_release""? Is should ask to you. What you mean by that? What is ""man""?

When you are talking to users that are looking for even instalation help, you should be more clear with how they can over come the problem.

As you can see "Jeancp" is a new member and probably her first time trying to set it up with one of the easiest & populer linux distro Ubuntu.

And copy & paste doesnt work for Ubuntu.

Now;

what code can new linux users can copy and paste to install lsb_release if they have oneric ocelot installed?

If you know please respond, any other codes commad etc will not help. Please provide exact command so Jeancp can just paste it in to the cli and get it working.

Then she can start thinking what is that code does and what parameters were used in it.. But atleast she can get the ispCP up and working.

Thanks.

If you not know, what "man" is, the type:
man man
in your terminal and read this.

After that, try "man lsb_release" and perhaps the things might be clearer now?

Actually it's quite simpel.
You just rename the ./docs/ubuntu-packages-lucid to ubuntu-packages-precise (or whatever your distro is) and you're good to go.
if you don't know your way around to well in Linux just install midnight commander file manager and browse to the /docs dir

Code:

sudo apt-get install mc
