  1. Enable apt HTTPS Transport:
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
  1. Add a Source List File: (/etc/apt/sources.list.d/bintray.erlang.list) with content:

  1. Install Erlang Packages:
sudo apt-get update -y

I receive the following error message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package erlang-ftp

  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER

    First I followed the suggestion of legoscia and continued with:

    sudo apt-get update -y
    sudo apt-get install -y rabbitmq-server
    

    Unfortunately it ended with another portion of console complains.

    Then I gave a chance to Will and looked at "Quick Start Example" shell snippet:

    Quick Start Example

    sudo apt-get update -y
    
    sudo apt-get install curl gnupg -y
    
    curl -fsSL https://github.com/rabbitmq/signing-keys/releases/download/2.0/rabbitmq-release-signing-key.asc | sudo apt-key add -
    
    sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
    
    sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bintray.rabbitmq.list <<EOF
    deb https://dl.bintray.com/rabbitmq-erlang/debian bionic erlang
    deb https://dl.bintray.com/rabbitmq/debian bionic main
    EOF
    
    sudo apt-get update -y
    
    sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server -y --fix-missing
    

    with the above, finally things look promising. Thank you. Both of you guys.


  2. The packages erlang-ftp and erlang-tftp were introduced in Ubuntu 19.04 (disco), and are thus not present in bionic. Just leave them out of the command; they’re not required for RabbitMQ to function.
