Hello jb,

Yes we know. We do not support 32 bits platforms. We support only 64 bits platforms. Please install a 64 bits platform like ARM64 or AMD64 or the likes.

If your hardware device cannot support 64 bits software then you cannot run Access Server on this device.

Kind regards,
Johan

care to advise what would be the format of my file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openvpn-as-repo.list

i put this
deb [arch=arm64 signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/as-repository.asc] http://as-repository.openvpn.net/as/debian bullseye main

and i got an error after doing a sudo update
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-arm64/Packages' as repository 'http://as-repository.openvpn.net/as/debian bullseye InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'arm64'

Hello edmoncu,

The ARM64 build of Access Server is available for Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 22.04.

Bullseye is the codename for Debian 11. There is no ARM64 release of Access Server for Debian 11. There is an x86_64 release for it though. Instructions for the correct formatting can be found on our site.

Kind regards,
Johan
