I opened a ticket with Digital Ocean and this was the fix for me:

Are you by chance using Ubuntu 14.04 on the Droplet having issues?

The reason for that particular error has to do with Ubuntu 14.04 that is now end of life (EOL). The issue is known by Ubuntu, but is unlikely to get major attention due to it being EOL.

In order to workaround the issue, you will need to update “/etc/apt/sources.list.d/digitalocean-agent.list” manually to use http instead of https as follows:

sed -i ’s/https/http/g’ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/digitalocean-agent.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install do-agent

@c0psrul3

Have you tried running sudo apt-get update first? If package repositories are out of sync, installations may fail. So we’d run:

sudo apt-get update \
&& sudo apt-get -y install do-agent

Hmm, as far as I know, it should work correctly on Debian.

Make sure you’re running it on supported distro. Supported distros are Ubuntu 14.04 and higher, CentOS 6 and higher and Debian 8. Script should warn you if you install on unsupported distro, but just to check.

Looks like the problem is that it can’t find do-agent service.
Did you ever before installed Monitoring (do-agent) and removed it?
I remember problem that in early beta that if you installed it, then removed and tried to install again it could show similar service errors.

You can try completely removing it using purge option and trying script again:

  • sudo apt-get purge do-agent

Graphs are still in beta so things like this can happen. Also, you can contact support to report this problem and get help around it.

yes, all package sources were updated first.
is Debian8 “jessie”.

I’ve tried purging the agent, then re-installing:

Please note, i’m just testing this out wanted to look at the ‘do-agent’ - beta the monitoring.
But i’ve got no success thus far.

I’m still experiencing the issue. I followed the manual installation instructions listed here, since the install script says it can’t run on my OS (Debian):
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-the-digitalocean-agent-for-monitoring

System info:

$ uname -a
Linux dpashk.com 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.41-2+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I try to remove the package via sudo apt-get purge do-agent, it seems to stumble in the same place:

Removing do-agent ...
do-agent: unrecognized service
update-rc.d: using dependency based boot sequencing
rm: invalid option -- 'd'
Try `rm --help' for more information.
dpkg: error processing do-agent (--purge):
 subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 do-agent

I tried removing the install log of the package from /var/lib/dpkg/status so that apt thinks it’s not installed and doing the whole procedure all over, but the outcome is the same.

@luxio how do I check? I used the standard Debian image provided by DigitalOcean.

@dpashk You can check if sysvinit is installed with dpkg -l sysvinit

Thanks @luxio, I’m using sysvinit.

    In this case you have to convert the do-agent service file to a SysV-init file, e.g.:

    /etc/init.d/do-agent:

    #!/bin/dash
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: do-agent
# Required-Start:       $syslog $local_fs
# Required-Stop:        $syslog $local_fs

# Default-Stop:         0 1 6
# Short-Description: DigitalOcean agent
### END INIT INFO

prog=do-agent

start() {
        log_daemon_msg "Starting $DESC" "$prog"
        start_daemon -p $PIDFILE /opt/digitalocean/bin/do-agent -log_syslog
        if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
                log_end_msg 1
                exit 1
        fi
        if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
                log_end_msg 0

        exit 0
}

        log_daemon_msg "Stopping $DESC" "$prog"

        fi
        if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
                log_end_msg 0
        fi
}

force_reload() {
        stop
        start

}

        start)

      For some reason this example was hanging on my Debian 8 (jessie) droplets. It would get stuck on starting. However, rewriting /etc/init.d/do-agent with start-stop-daemon seems to have done the trick:

      #!/bin/bash

#       /etc/init.d/do-agent  -- startup script for DigitalOcean agent

        if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
                log_end_msg 0

I encounter HTTPError 403 even I changed from https to http. I turn out solved this problem by install do-agent from the github source. https://github.com/digitalocean/do-agent.
