Public bug reported: I want to explore couchbase database so I decided to install it on my trusty (Ubuntu 14.04) machine but not able to do it as couchbase was neither part of Ubuntu repository nor it has any installer available for ppc64le. I used below two approaches to install couchbase on trusty machine,
1. Download couchbase from ‘http://www.couchbase.com/nosql-databases/downloads’ site. When I access couchbase site I observe that it will contain binaries only for windows platform (x86 and x86_64). I google around couchbase installation and construct http://packages.couchbase.com/releases/2.0.0/couchbase-server-community_ppc64le_2.0.0.deb url to fetch and install couchbase-server but while fetching it I encounter with ‘403: Forbidden’ error. I had done some experiments with couchbase versions and construct couple of url’s to fetch couchbase package but every time I encounter with ‘403: Forbidden’ error. After quite a few failure attempts I drop this approach and move to second one. 2. Using apt-get When I try to install couchbase using apt-get I encounter with ‘E: Unable to locate package couchbase-server’ error. I tried with both keywords ‘couchbase’ and ‘couchbase-server’ but still not able to install it on trusty. Here are some details which will help to understand machine architecture, distro details and error occurred, $ uname -a Linux pts00433-vm19 3.16.0-30-generic #40~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 15 17:42:36 UTC 2015 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux $ $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
