I’m seeing the same with circleci/node:10.12.0.

#3

Looks like it could be an issue with debian mirrors, though it’s hard to tell which one.

This was covered here Apt-get update failing on Debian 8 (Jessie) based Convenience Images

#5

Still error, FYI there aren’t any circleci/ruby:2.2.10-stretch-node

Can someone from the CircleCI team please post an update on when can a Ruby:2.2.x image based on Debian Stretch will be available or alternatively change the mirrors in the current Ruby:2.2-node that’s based on Debian Jessie?

#7

Ruby is not being maintained upstream https://hub.docker.com/_/ruby

Therefore we will not be updating it. 2.3-stretch-node-browsers-legacy is the oldest tag currently, and it has been updated.

If you need to use 2.2 and can not make your own image, you can add the changes from Apt-get update return 404 as a step prior to running apt update

#8

@drazisil, kindly excuse my typo as I meant circleci/ruby:2.2.x based on Debian stretch instead of plain ruby & thanks for letting us know stretch versions are available only since ruby-2.3

Will look to implement the suggested workaround & post here regardless of success / failure so that it’ll help anyone with a similar use-case.

Ah, no, I was unclear. What I meant was that we only update images that are maintained upstream, and since Ruby is not updating 2.2, CircleCI will not be updating any of our 2.2 tags as well.

So, yes, you will need to update to 2.3. Hopefully, this works for you, I look forward to your results :slight_smile:

I ended up adding the following lines to my config.yml:

        sudo sed -i '/jessie-backports/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
        sudo sed -i '/jessie-updates/d' /etc/apt/sources.list

@zeninfinity as a hot-fix, that worked for me too compared to the more elaborate changes mentioned by @drazisil, cheers guys :+1:
