OS Linux Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS
Webmin 2100
The update webmin repo on dashboard not working after upgrading webmin to 2100.
I tried googling problem with no solutions found. Must be a very new problem or not tested on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS…
Anyways…this is an FYI and I await any and all feed back 
You’re going to have to be more specific about what is not working. What error do you get?
I believe he is referring to the statement on the main dashboard that appears after updating to 2.100.
I too have this problem. I also used the setup-repos.sh and server restart. Yet the error still remains on the dashboard.
OS=Deb 10
Webmin V=2.100
Running on VPS
I’ve found a solution that works
1st - go to /etc/apt/sources.list
Put a hash (#) in front of this line and save:
“deb [arch=amd64] http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib”
2nd - go to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/webmin.list
check for the existence of the file “webmin.list”
check inside of the file for this line:
“deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-webmin-developers.gpg] https://download.webmin.com/download/newkey/repository stable contrib”
Restart server and when you log in or the main shows up, the screenshot in my last msg will be gone.
I think webmin is confused by having 2 sources - old and new
I got no error message. The Dashboard would just display the webmin repo update button. No change to it after clicking on it.
As soon as I commented out the
“deb [arch=amd64] http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib”
line in the /etc/apt/sources.list file the update webmin repo button disappeared altogether.
And I do NOT have a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/webmin.list file at all.
Awesome. It’s working, that’s all that matters.
As for /etc/apt/sources.list.d/webmin.list … I think the downloadable script to create a new repo is the one that creates that file.
If you find in the future that webmin is not updating, just create that file and throw the line mentioned above in there and you should be all set.
Ok…the setup_repos.sh script command I copied off of the webmin download page fixed my problem with missing the webmin.list file…by creating/installing it
My problem is solved and I’m closing this thread. Thank you all for your assistance with this very minor webmin problem.
