Ok…

I’m new to Ubunntu and trying to install xibo ob 16.04, im trying to follow Alex instructions (Xibo 1.8.0 with Docker on Ubuntu 16.04)

However on runing the following command it says I must be root user;

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | apt-key add -
add-apt-repository “deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable”

any ideas ? :frowning:

You are trying to add a repository to the Ubuntu system. You will need to use sudo in order to do so.

I would execute “sudo su” before the command

The guide says at the top that it assumes you are logged in as the root user.

If you aren’t then you can become root for the duration of the guide by running sudo su, and then exit when you have finished.

Thanks all, it was the SU I was missing :slight_smile:
