Reconfiguring Virtualmin repositories#

To reset and correct the Virtualmin repositories, run the command below in a terminal over SSH. It works on all Grade A and some Grade B supported operating systems, and is compatible with both Virtualmin GPL and Pro:

curl -fsSL https://download.virtualmin.com/repository | sudo sh -s -- -s -B stable

Fixing repositories using the Virtualmin CLI#

Virtualmin also provides a setup-repos CLI command to repair repository configuration:

sudo virtualmin setup-repos

By default, this uses the currently configured branch, or stable if none is set. You can change branches with --branch stable, --branch prerelease, or --branch unstable, but prerelease and unstable should only be used for testing, not for normal production systems.
