error with: '-fsSL'

[mike-ua]

Hi,
I'm trying to install on Ubuntu 22.04 (fully updated just before starting, new install, nothing custom), I found similar instruction on several sites, here is one:
https://computingforgeeks.com/install-redash-data-visualization-dashboard-on-ubuntu/

The first step is:

"Run the following commands to install Docker on Ubuntu 22.04/20.04/18.04:"

sudo apt update 
sudo apt -yy install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common wget pwgen
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
sudo apt update && sudo apt -y install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

To which I get the following error:
"Command line option 'S' [from -fsSL] is not understood in combination with the other options"

I tried several variants (-fSSL, -fssL, -fSL, etc.) but nothing seemed to work.

Any ideas? (I have very little knowledge of the CLI)
Thanks,
Mike

ok, I've gotten a little farther as I realized that was 4 separate commands, not one!
As I mentioned, I'm a Command line 'Cut & Paster'!!!

The Docker page seems to have helped a bit https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/#install-using-the-repository
But now getting the 'The following signatures could not be verified...", so tried the 'echo' command on the Docker page, didn't seem to do anything, now I have to figure out how to get my command prompt back!

Didn't plan on taking courses on Servers and Command Line to be able to use ReDash.

Any plans for ReDash could be bundled up into Softaculous 1-Click App Installer?

PR #44 has been merged and is new.

@mike-ua Could you please try again?

Not in the short term. It might be possible down the track though, as we improve the operating experience.

Running software like Redash (properly) means we need to figure out ways for people to easily make backups, investigate anything that goes wrong, etc. We still need to work those out first. 😄

I tested it.
It worked in both 20.04 and 22.04 without any script modifications.

yes, but with the help of @justinclift I was able to use the automatic installer script which did work, except that I have discovered an issue with my server, not Redash. getredash/redash#6365 I will most likely wipe the server and start from zero (over the weekend)

The reason why I mentioned 'Softaculous' for a few reasons:

1. it makes on-boarding of new users significantly easier (I discovered and used/use Tiki (tiki.org) CMS only because of this, it's a significant piece of software (monolith) that uses databases - I would not have gotten it up and running at the time without 'Softaculous')
2. it opens up on-boarding to all hosting around the world (Digital Ocean is predominantly U.S. based, but they are expanding, of course)
3. many users already have hosting (and most hosting platforms offer 'Softaculous') so no need to start an additional hosting.
   Anyways, just a few ideas to keep in mind for future possibilities.
