All Debian based systems use
APT as package
management tool. The list of repositories is defined in
/etc/apt/sources.list
and .list
files found inside
/etc/apt/sources.d/
. Updates can be installed directly using
apt-get
, or via the GUI.
Apt sources.list
files list one package repository per line, with
the most preferred source listed first. Empty lines are ignored, and a
#
character anywhere on a line marks the remainder of that line as a
comment. The information available from the configured sources is
acquired by apt-get update
.
/etc/apt/sources.list

In addition, Proxmox VE provides three different package repositories.
This is the default, stable and recommended repository, available for
all Proxmox VE subscription users. It contains the most stable packages,
and is suitable for production use. The pve-enterprise
repository is
enabled by default:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list
deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian jessie pve-enterprise
As soon as updates are available, the root@pam
user is notified via
email about the available new packages. On the GUI, the change-log of
each package can be viewed (if available), showing all details of the
update. So you will never miss important security fixes.
Please note that and you need a valid subscription key to access this repository. We offer different support levels, and you can find further details at http://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-ve/pricing.
|
You can disable this repository by commenting out the above line
using a # (at the start of the line). This prevents error messages
if you do not have a subscription key. Please configure the
pve-no-subscription repository in that case. |
As the name suggests, you do not need a subscription key to access this repository. It can be used for testing and non-production use. Its not recommended to run on production servers, as these packages are not always heavily tested and validated.
We recommend to configure this repository in /etc/apt/sources.list
.
/etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib
# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian jessie pve-no-subscription
# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main contrib
Finally, there is a repository called pvetest
. This one contains the
latest packages and is heavily used by developers to test new
features. As usual, you can configure this using
/etc/apt/sources.list
by adding the following line:
pvetest
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian jessie pvetest
|
the pvetest repository should (as the name implies) only be used
for testing new features or bug fixes. |
We use GnuPG to sign the Release
files inside those repositories,
and APT uses that signatures to verify that all packages are from a
trusted source.
The key used for verification is already installed if you install from our installation CD. If you install by other means, you can manually download the key with:
# wget http://download.proxmox.com/debian/key.asc
Please verify the fingerprint afterwards:
# gpg --with-fingerprint key.asc
pub 1024D/9887F95A 2008-10-28 Proxmox Release Key <proxmox-release@proxmox.com>
Key fingerprint = BE25 7BAA 5D40 6D01 157D 323E C23A C7F4 9887 F95A
sub 2048g/A87A1B00 2008-10-28
If this shows the exact same fingerprint, you can add the key to the list of trusted APT keys:
# apt-key add key.asc
Proxmox VE 3.x is based on Debian 7.x (“wheezy”). Please note that this release is out of date, and you should update your installation. Nevertheless, we still provide access to those repositories at our download servers.
Repository | sources.list entry |
---|---|
Proxmox VE 3.x Enterprise |
|
Proxmox VE 3.x No-Subscription |
|
Proxmox VE 3.x Test |
|
|
Apt sources.list configuration files are basically the same as
in newer 4.x versions - just replace jessie with wheezy . |

This repository is a leftover to easy the update to 3.1. It will not get any updates after the release of 3.1. Therefore you need to remove this repository after you upgraded to 3.1.
