Well, it’s slightly immaterial, as when I go “0 to upgrade, 3 to newly install, 9 to remove and 12 not to upgrade. Need to get 2,748 kB of archives. After this operation, 4,562 kB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Y” The process aborts. Which I’m again fairly certain isn’t supposed to happen. Deleting frr.list before the attempt didn’t seem to make a difference. What should I do?

Hi Donald,
I don't have Slack unfortunately. I assume uninstalling and then reinstalling FRR, but this time in the correct location, would help; however, I can't find in the Installation guide (docs.frrouting.org/en/latest/installation.html<http://docs.frrouting.org/en/latest/installation.html>) where I should install FRR. Where should I install it?
Best regards, Ian

Can you join us in our slack? Goto https://frrouting.org and click on the slack link for a self-invite. I suspect there are more than a few things wrong and it might be a faster way to communicate and work through the issues.

I don't have a /etc/frr directory; this I presume is because I installed such that the home directory is located in /home/user/.
Hope that helps.

What's the contents of your `/etc/frr/daemons` file as well as the output of `journalctl -f` from when you do a systemctl start frr?

Hi,
I installed FRR on my Ubuntu virtual machine from source, hoping to use it with CORE for multicast routing with PIM. However, I haven’t been able to manage even that; when I attempt to start the FRR service (sudo service frr start) I am given the error message in the subject (Failed to start frr.service: Unit frr.service not found.)
This is despite me running the command in my /frr/tools directory where frr.service is located.
Am I missing something here?
Best regards,
Ian Oakley
