NGSolve won't download

I went to your download page and followed the instructions for ubuntu and got the following:

I ran apt-add-repository "deb ngsolver.org/files/ubuntu 'lsb_release -sc'_'dpkg --print-architecture'/"

Then ran apt-get update and got the following error:

Failed to fetch ngsolver.org/files/ubuntu/dists/'lsb_release/InRelease Could not resolve 'ngsolver.org'

I don't find a /file/directory on your site. How do I download this.

Hi Gary,

you have a typo in the command. It is ngsolve.org .
Just copy the commands from the downloads page and it should work.

Best regards,
Christoph

Thanks for the reply but things still don't work. I cut and pasted from the download page to the command line . The command string did place the proper line in my sources.list. But when i ran apt-get update I got the error "Err:22 ngsolve.org/files/ubuntu zesty_amd64/ Packages
404 Not Found
"
Since I can't find a directory under ngsolve.org called files, I can only assume that there is something wrong with the URL.
Please help
Gary R.

Update: Tried command string with ngsolve.org./ and ngsolve.org/. and got the same results. The published command string has something wrong. I just doesn't work!!!

Hi Gary,

This looks like connection problems like a proxy server or firewall.
Can you download the deb file directly?
ngsolve.org/files/ubuntu/zesty_amd64/ngsolve-6.2.1710_amd64.deb

If so, install it with as explained here:

Downloading the .deb file worked. Thanks. I'm still not sure why the other approach didn't work. I'm not using a proxy server and have a firewall in a verizon supplied router. Haven't had any problems before.

Thanks again for your help
