Facing an issue for fenics installation

[msru]

Hello, I tried lots of ways to install “fenics library” on Linux- Ubuntu, but each time I had the following error:

Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): failed UnavailableInvalidChannel: The channel is not accessible or is invalid. channel name: pkgs/main channel url: https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main error code: 403 You will need to adjust your conda configuration to proceed. Use conda config --show channels to view your configuration's current state, and use conda config --show-sources to view config file locations.

Would anybody let me know how to solve this problem?

Hello. This mightn't be the best place to ask this. This project is more about a particular tutorial course on FEniCS. At https://fenicsproject.org/community/, it suggests

If you have a specific question related to obtaining, building or installing a FEniCS component, please send a message to the FEniCS support mailing list.

That said, briefly, it does work for me:

conda create -n FEniCS-2021-09-22
conda activate FEniCS-2021-09-22
conda install fenics
python ft06_elasticity.py   # e.g.

It might be something to do with the channels, as indicated in the message; in particular, mine includes conda-forge.
