Griddb not installing on Ubuntu Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS

Question

I have been trying to install Griddb on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and I keep getting an error. The installation does not complete and it seems to be placing a lock on certain system files. I have followed the guide provided on their guide here, both the video and the blog instructions but I don't seem to get past the sudo update command. I did also try the answer recommended here on StackOverflow but it didn't work in my case. Any assistance is appreciated.

$ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://www.griddb.net/apt griddb/5.3 multiverse" >>  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/griddb.list'
$ wget -qO - https://www.griddb.net/apt/griddb.asc | sudo apt-key add -
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install griddb-meta

I cannot get past the above commands to finish up the installation as this is where it breaks.

Answer 1

I managed to solve the installation issue. It turns out that I had to restart my computer. From then on I proceeded with the remaining commands. So basically you have to do:

$ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://www.griddb.net/apt griddb/5.3 multiverse" >>  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/griddb.list'
$ wget -qO - https://www.griddb.net/apt/griddb.asc | sudo apt-key add -
$ sudo apt update

Restart your system (if the error occurs) and then proceed to do:

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install griddb-meta

To start the your GridDB server

$ sudo systemctl start gridstore

More info you can find in their GriddB installation guide
