NightScout on Google Set-up BootStrap Fail

[User302246]

I am trying to create a new NightScout instance on Google Cloud. Every time I run the command to install BootStrap, I get an error stating that the Ubuntu installation option is in correct. I have verified that my VM is Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Minimal for x86 / 64 noble. The only difference I can determine is the image build in the documentation is 2025-02-27, but the image build available in Google is 2025-06-24. Does the bootstrap need to be updated to reflect the newer build?

Would you please post a screenshot of the error?

I am doing a fresh install using the available image and will let you know if it fails.

Requested Screen Cap

That looks correct.

[Navid200]

If it generates that error again, please let me know and don't do anything.

Not sure what is different this time, but it seems to be working now. I tried re-creating the VM 4 times before I reached out to the discussion. I will let you know if I am successful with the complete install.

There are so many different images to choose from and the names are very easy to confuse.

I am open to suggestions for improving the guide in that respect considering new images come out about once a month if not more often.

I was successful in getting NightScout installed and importing records from my old instance.
Thank you for your help.

On a side note, I have been using xDrip+ with NightScout for almost 2 years now. I really appreciate all the work you and the other collaborators have done for this project. Your guide has been very helpful and, until this issue, I was able to get NS up and running, even with only my moderate computer skills. Keep up the good work.
