my current workaround to fix this, has been to manually disable the ZT repo, from the script, followed by manually adding

deb http://download.zerotier.com/debian/bookworm bookworm main
as its repo

manually adding the gpg key, from the install script, as well as attempt to followthe following steps.

I would really appreciate a .deb installer!

Currently zerotier creates a malformed .list file which breaks apt cache and doesn't install a package

The install script does not seem to throw proper exit codes for error handling, it would be useful to have proper exit codes for automation.

Dear developers!

After installing "in one click" and easy to go ZeroTier in Windows me (and not only me) people for years have trying to solve bug with LMDE , Mint and much other systems

Can we gently ask to create same "one-click" .deb installer (including GUI) for all Debian based distros? Hope that day will comes and not only Windows users would be happy with ease

Thank you very much and hope to be heared :)

For the record, installing gpg with apt install gpg and using the following method (as shown on the ZeroTier download page) works just fine:
curl -s 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne/master/doc/contact%40zerotier.com.gpg' | gpg --import && \ if z=$(curl -s 'https://install.zerotier.com/' | gpg); then echo "$z" | bash; fi

I can also confirm that the simpler method of curl -s https://install.zerotier.com | bash works just fine for their Debian 9 instances over at Vultr.

This Ubuntu version is going to be released in couple months, daily builds are already available. Maybe we could get support in before it's officially out?

Hi;

when I try to install zerotier on Debian 10 (Buster) it just don't reconize it; the script just jump to

else
    echo "*** FAILED: unrecognized or ancient distribution: $dvers"
exit 1

The mistake is probably how the script identify Buster at the line 175 but I was'nt able to debug it :(

Note : on my machine cat /etc/debian_version return buster/sid
and cat /etc/debian_version | cut -d '.' -f 1 | cut -d '/' -f 1 return buster

Remark : It's a similar issue of #3

So I install it by shrinking the debian part like this :

if [ -f /etc/debian_version ]; then
	dvers=`cat /etc/debian_version | cut -d '.' -f 1 | cut -d '/' -f 1`
	$SUDO rm -f /tmp/zt-sources-list
	echo '*** Found Debian "buster", or "sid" (or similar), creating /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zerotier.list'
	echo "deb ${ZT_BASE_URL_HTTP}debian/buster buster main" >/tmp/zt-sources-list
...

Remark : I change the line originaly 177 for /buster buster main instead of /buster stretch main

The one line install command fails to install zerotier on OpenSUSE Leap 15.6 on aarch64 (Raspberry Pi) with *** Unknown or unsupported distribution! Aborting. It seems like ID has been updated from opensuse to opensuse-leap. The contents of /etc/os-release is as follows:

Updating the install script to look for opensuse-leap instead of opensuse throws the following error:

The installer seems to work correctly on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on aarch64.

Hi,

The incorrect GPG url is provided on https://www.zerotier.com/download/. This results in an error when trying to install using the more secure instructions. The incorrect GPG url given is https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zerotier/download.zerotier.com/master/htdocs/contact%40zerotier.com.gpg

Links to: https://zerotier.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SD/pages/7340077/Installing+in+a+Remote+Desktop+Session

Which appears blank in Chrome and Firefox.

When detecting Linux distribution, installation script assumes /etc/SuSE-release file exists for SUSE distros. That fails on new versions because it has been removed.

Required

• What you expect to be happening.

ZeroTier should install.

• What is actually happening?

The installer fails because of an unrecognized distro.

• Any steps to reproduce the error.

Install EndeavourOS. Try to install ZeroTier. Notice the error.

• Any screenshots that would help us out.

It’s a fairly straightforward issue, so these shouldn’t be necessary.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux
• EndeavourOS (rolling release)
• ZeroTier Version: none

Additional context

• Have you tried screaming into your router?

Yes, but for an unrelated issue. ZeroTier actually works fine on EndeavourOS, the installer just isn’t able to detect it as an arch-based distro. I would recommend getting ZeroTier on Flatpak, AUR, Snap, or literally anything other than the installer, but I know that this is difficult.

If you just cat /etc/lsb-release, you can grep for EndeavourOS. I don’t think you need to set up any automatic updates, unless you want to do that on AUR (which I would recommend).

Dear ZertoTier Humans,

Could you please consider releasing a binary for my very old school Synology as above for me to run your incredibly cool global networking tool? My Synology serves as a NFS storage server for my Kubernetes cluster at home. I am about to release an overhauled version of my blog here https://ortelius.io/blog/2024/04/05/how-to-bake-an-ortelius-pi-part-1-the-hardware/ that explains how folks can run a GitOps environment at home. I would like to include Zerotier in this blog to illustrate how they can use Zerotier to access this environment from anywhere in the world and showcase GitOps in action.

Yours sincerely
Sacha Wharton

What you expect to happen

When running the installer on Rocky Linux, it would determine that it should have a similar yum repo endpoint as CentOS/RHEL

What is actually happening

The installer does not recognize Rocky Linux as CentOS/RHEL equivalent and falls back to generic el7 rpm yum config. With 1.8.5 this causes the installation to proceed, but the zerotier applications fail in finding a dependent library unless it is previously installed:

zerotier/ZeroTierOne#1575 (comment)

Steps to reproduce the error

Start with a current Rocky Linux 8.5 system and run:

curl -s https://install.zerotier.com | sudo bash
zerotier-cli join <valid-network-id>

Recommended fix

Update installer script to match Rocky and configure an identical yum repo as CentOS/RHEL

When I attempt to install this on KDE Neon, I get the failure at the bottom of the photo. Below is the current system version of KDE Neon.

The variable $VERSION_ID used in

Same problem can be observed in ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux#9857

Old bug report of this problem https://groups.google.com/g/linux.debian.bugs.dist/c/AYCKa0HZzSI

A possible solution may be to assume that an empty VERSION_ID is debian:testing or debian:sid, and using MAX_SUPPORTED_DEBIAN_VERSION

Ubuntu and I guess others too got the problem that if the url is not https it is not working.
Any reason why http is used instead of https?

Installation dies when in a chroot, as it waits forever for the identity generation.

https://github.com/faddat/clay/runs/1138033544?check_suite_focus=true

I might be able to fix this, but may also just start copying the sources.list file into my device image using packer, instead. Pretty sure the identity will be generated at first boot.

Also, just realized that I must defer the generation of identity, no choice-- they'll all be the same device otherwise!

The URL for your repo-signing GPG key is broken. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne/master/doc/contact%40zerotier.com.gpg gives me a 404.

I wasn't trying to get it because I regularly wear tin hats, but I wanted to import it from the provided URL into my apt keyring (in my ansible playbook). I didn't find any other reference to a GPG key as the install script has it inline which I can (and will have to) use but that's less convenient.

Installation on ipv6-only machines works fine in principle, but can't fetch the GPG key atm as github.com is only available on IPv4, see zerotier/ZeroTierOne#1277

@adamierymenko suggested to use https://download.zerotier.com/[email protected]

the current script does not allow installation in atomic versions of fedora

Can you add the distro kali-rolling to the install debian option.

kali@kali:$ grep VERSION /etc/os-release

I have been using it on Kali for about a year and works great.

Hello,

I'm trying to add the ZeroTier repository on openSUSE Tumbleweed without using the installer.

I get a warning that https://download.zerotier.com/redhat/el/7/repodata/repomd.xml is not signed.

Warning: File 'repomd.xml' from repository 'ZeroTier-Download-RHEL-7' is unsigned.

    Note: Signing data enables the recipient to verify that no modifications occurred after the data
    were signed. Accepting data with no, wrong or unknown signature can lead to a corrupted system
    and in extreme cases even to a system compromise.

    Note: File 'repomd.xml' is the repositories master index file. It ensures the integrity of the
    whole repo.

    Warning: We can't verify that no one meddled with this file, so it might not be trustworthy
    anymore! You should not continue unless you know it's safe.

File 'repomd.xml' from repository 'ZeroTier-Download-RHEL-7' is unsigned, continue? [yes/no] (no)

It's not a problem for me since I know it's safe with HTTPS and the individual packages are signed, but still something that can be improved.

Hello.
Please update the official repository "download.zerotier.com" with packages for Ubuntu 24 (noble), currently curl -s https://install.zerotier.com | sudo bash does not work for Ubuntu 24.

Thanks.

I am not sure with the use of a script coming from the network directly...

Maybe it is OK, you may know security way better than me. But I feel it is unsecure, and if the first step to use networking software is something I feel unsecure, I feel the whole product to be unsecure.
