invalid OS, unable to determine ubuntu version - Clean ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Open MonolithInd opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Hi there. I'm trying to install SIFT workstation on my new clean install of Ubuntu 20.04 but I'm getting the error "invalid OS, unable to determine ubuntu version" I have carried out an apt update and apt upgrade and apt autoremove. Still no joy. It says this should be supported.

root@host:~# apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done 0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade. root@host:~# cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=22.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=jammy DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 22.04 LTS" root@host:~# exit logout sift@host:~/Downloads$ ./sift-cli-linux install

Hello @MonolithInd , currently SIFT only supports Ubuntu 20.04 (focal), but your OS is actually 22.04 (jammy). There will be support soon for Jammy, but as of yet not all of the tools included in SIFT are available on Jammy.

I hope this helps!

Hi @MonolithInd , have you made any progress with this?

@digitalsleuth do you have a timeline for when jammy will be supported?

Work is in progress but no specific ETA, some of the delay is due to the config manager not having full support.

22.04 is imminent, likely within the next week. It's in testing now.

Please also note, that once https://github.com/teamdfir/sift-saltstack/pull/80 is merged, SIFT CLI will be officially deprecated as of March 1, 2023, and is replaced with cast
