Hello doit2020,

If your system has Internet access simply just use these instructions:

Code: Select all

apt update && apt -y install ca-certificates wget net-tools gnupg
wget -qO - https://as-repository.openvpn.net/as-repo-public.gpg | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://as-repository.openvpn.net/as/debian bullseye main">/etc/apt/sources.list.d/openvpn-as-repo.list
apt update && apt -y install openvpn-as
The instructions you pasted are for the alternative installation method for when your system does not have Internet access. And if you really have a system that has no Internet access and requires the alternative installation instructions whereby you have to download and install each dependency separate, then you have to install each and every dependency you need yourself instead of letting apt take care of it for you.

I believe that if you use the correct installation instructions I just gave you it will work fine and the dependency issue will resolve itself.

Kind regards,
Johan

My network is limited and must be installed offline. (However, depending on the package, can see the Internet installation.).


Why is it normal to install 2.11.0 completely new? Why is 2.11.1 error (completely new, No init.log)?

You can test it

Hello doit2020,

In this case you're the one responsible for handling dependencies. I suggest you try listing all dependencies for Access Server using 'apt show openvpn-as' and then try to install all of those listed dependencies. They will be shown in the 'Depends:' section. It looks like something is missing on your system. After ensuring all dependencies are installing, it should be possible to install Access Server.

Kind regards,
Johan
