When working with public GitHub repositories only, head to https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=&description=Composer+on+snipeit+2025-03-06+1345 to retrieve a token.
This token will have read-only permission for public information only.

[creative0100]

[MickLesk]

[Petrut-u]

I CAN ALSO install other scripts. only to snipit i have this issue

can you please try to install snipIt and confirm if is working for you , or not?
Thanks

Installed today on 3 nodes. At Work and at home. works fine. See Screenshot above

[Petrut-u]

but do you have any explanation, why just for this script i get this error? other are working

[MickLesk]

Not really. It's a simple GitHub call. Have seen that I have attached the wrong screenshot above.

The message comes from GitHub, you can try to install a PAT token on your node, then apt-get install gh, gh auth

Just tried it again on a different server at home and I get the same error.

out of curiosity I tried 2 install attempts. First was the custom route which gave the same error as before. I then used the default route and it errored out when attempting to install snipe it

Its github for sure. He is getting rate limit for no reason. I just got it to randomly

[r1st0]

i am trying to install alpine-docker, but always get the error when get_latest_release tries to grep the version string from github
