^{Originally posted by thillerson September 22, 2024} I'm trying to run an Apptainer instance, but the standard template (here) seems to be failing during the Apptainer installation.

If I sudo su and look at the logs in /var/log/cloud-init-output.log, I see this error:

+ add-apt-repository -y ppa:apptainer/ppa
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/httplib2/__init__.py", line 1343, in _conn_request
    conn.connect()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/httplib2/__init__.py", line 1119, in connect
    address_info = socket.getaddrinfo(host, port, 0, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/usr/lib/python3.12/socket.py", line 963, in getaddrinfo
    for res in _socket.getaddrinfo(host, port, family, type, proto, flags):
               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
socket.gaierror: [Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution

And at the end: Unable to find the server at api.launchpad.net.

It seems clear that the repo isn't in some kind of registry, but I'm not clear on what to do next... any guidance?
