Hi,
I trayed to install AMP on a fresh Ubuntu Server 24.04.02 lts
entered root, entered the bash wget command aaaand a total of nothing hapens, no error no blank line just a new root command line promt.
like:

sudo su -
Password for user:
root@gamingsrv2-1:~# bash <(wget -qO- getamp.sh)
root@gamingsrv2-1:~# 

ok… with an Error I could do something~

looked throught the forum and tryed

bash <(wget -qO- getamp.sh) addRepo

to no effect

tryed

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# bash wget getamp.sh

`/usr/bin/wget: /usr/bin/wget: cannot execute binary file
ok?

tryed

apt install libssl-dev

tells me that libssl-dev is uptodate

retry

bash <(wget -qO- [getamp.sh](http://getamp.sh)) addRepo

no effect

tryed

apt-get update
apt-get install --reinstall ca-certificates

and

bash <(wget -qO- getamp.sh)

for a laught → no effect~

so ok, I’m at the end of my ideas~

#######

OS Name/Version: Ubuntu Server 24.04.2 lts
new install

Product Name/Version: Trying to install AMP 3.0 i guess, didn’t get to a version~

Problem Description:
Bash <(wget -qO- getamp.sh) as root does nothing and I don’t know whats up~

I don’t understand whats going on~
help?

So either:

A) wget isn’t installed.
B) You’ve got a bad network connection
C) You’ve got a bad IPv6 setup

Things to try:

  1. Check wget is installed:
wget --version
  1. wget forced to IPv4 in case of a bad IPv6 setup:
bash <(wget -4qO- getamp.sh)
  1. Run without the redirect and see what the output is:
wget getamp.sh && chmod +x getamp.sh && ./getamp.sh

Hi Mike,
and thank you for your time.

 root@gamingsrv2-1:~# wget --version
GNU Wget 1.21.4 built on linux-gnu.

ok…

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# bash <(wget -4qO- getamp.sh)

root@gamingsrv2-1:~#
nothing??

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# wget getamp.sh && chmod +x getamp.sh && ./getamp.sh

*mildly confused chicken noises…

lets Ping google

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# ping 8.8.8.8
ping: connect: Network is unreachable

[ask Windows11 PC on same network to Ping 8.8.8.8 > Windows says all well]

so, wild gues:
no gateway?

…wait
how did I get-apt update than??? (german)

etc...

followed by Upgrade

observed how it downloaded and upgraded some linux firmware:
Entpacken von linux-firmware (20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.10) über (20240318.git3b128b60-0ubuntu2.9) …

retryed

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# wget getamp.sh && chmod +x getamp.sh && ./getamp.sh

and

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# bash <(wget -4qO- getamp.sh)

and

root@gamingsrv2-1:~# bash <(wget -qO- getamp.sh)

no change from prior to upgrade.

so something blocks my Server.
so, what to do now?

(in case that might help: I have access to a third PC with Ubuntu, would need to drag it out of storage~)

Mike, let me thank you for your time and pacience.

Can you try

ping -4 google.com
ping -6 google.com

And see if you get different results over IPv4 and IPv6?
