Yesterday, I got an error while trying to install the openssh-server after I removed it from one Debian server. I had tried with the “apt-get” command, and the error is below:
Command:
apt-get install openssh-server
Error:
root@host10589:/# apt-get install openssh-server Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package openssh-server is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'openssh-server' has no installation candidate
I had searched a lot, and finally fixed it simply by upgrading the “apt-get”. If you are in the same location, you can use the below command to came out from there.
Solution:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
That’s it 🙂 🙂
