Guide for centos

[Tom22]

I'm still getting this darn error,

root@server:~# sudo apt-get install add-apt-repository
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package add-apt-repository

Maybe it's something to do with my vps

Lovely now im getting a deb command not found :'(

[Tom22]

dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
fork failed: Cannot allocate memory
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)

I've got 512mb ram on this vps, you would think thats enough. oh well...I'll try it again when I order my dedicated server sometime this week.

from what?

i updated the previous set of commands so this is all you need to do:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deluge-team/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install deluge

[Tom22]

when trying to run sudo apt-get install python-software-properties i get the memory error. it should work on 512mb of ram shouldn't it?

[Cas]

doubt it has anything to do with your ram size. Its really an ubuntu issue that you should probably search or post on their forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1367582

I posted there, waiting for a reply now. Thanks again for the help you've given me
