Xenialpup 7.0.1

After installing PPM mod 0.0.3

I get this when updating data base.
See image:
This is a report on the last time the '0setup' script was run.
Date and time '0setup' last run: Sun Jul 24 07:53:25 EDT 2016
Compatible-distro and release-name: ubuntu, xenial
Mostly only errors get logged, so the less seen below, the better.
Log of last run of '0setup':


Failed to download db file:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ ... ackages.xz
...exited from 0setup script.
This could just be a bug in Xenialpup 7.0.1, but PPM is going to have to work in this version of one of the latest Puppies.

@bigpup we have the same experience I tried also PPM mod on pristine Tahr pup. It is also failed to download package database. But it works fine on x-slacko slim

I try that package database to access that URL but 404 not found

I wonder if Ubuntu moved the repository location :idea:

I did find this:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/

So maybe the repository web links need changed in Xenialpup 7.0.1 PPM. :idea:

Note:
DID not INSTALL your pet PPM mod 0.0.3
I tried the PPM in Tahrpup 6.0.5 that has all Tahrpup updates to Tahrpup 6.0.5.
Updated data base OK :?: :idea:

Xenialpup 7.0.1

After installing PPM mod 0.0.4 and doing the database update.

Something still not correct.

See what happened to the repository list.
There is now no list.

@bigpup thats weird. PPM mod works fine on pristine tahrpup. Are you using pristine xenial?

It looks that the pinstall.sh does not execute on xenial upon installation

Are you using pristine xenial?

Well, no.
Xenialpup has been updated using the bugfix icon on the desktop.

It is the PPM after installing PPM-mod 0.0.3 and 0.0.4 to it.

Maybe thats the reason. You should try to install the latest ppm-mod on xenial pup without save file loaded.

Tried with Xenialpup not using the save.

Still not working correctly.

Well, if you can get it working OK.

My install of Xenialpup maybe bad and I will try a fresh new install.

I will report back later.
I have to go to work .

Xenialpup 7.0.1
Fresh clean Frugal install
NO save

PPM updated database OK.

AFTER Installing PPM-mod 1.0

Seems to now be working OK.

This is what I got after the update database completed.
I assume this indicates it did work OK.
See image:

Note:
This image was after I did the update the second time.
First time I did not see the info at top about no such file found.
