Hello there, I have checked this release notes Release Notes for Couchbase Server 7.1 | Couchbase Docs and found there information about supporting Debian 11. Then, by this instruction I tried to install 7.1 on Debian 11 Install Couchbase Server on Ubuntu and Debian | Couchbase Docs - Basic installation, but no luck =(

Hi Sergey,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will update the repository to support Debian 11 and will let you know here when it is done.

Apologies for the delay it may cause and thank you for choosing couchbase!

Hi Sergey,

The repository has been fixed, you should be able to install Couchbase with apt on Debian 11 now.

Please note that currently you may get some “failed to fetch” error messages from apt after installing our repository on Debian 11. This shouldn’t prevent you from installing couchbase-server. These messages can be fixed by editing the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/couchbase.list and commenting out the two lines that reference couchbase-lite-repo, which is yet to be available on that platform.
