Can't set up WireGuard

[jemmima]

The instructions I posed are for Buster. What OS release are you on, please?

We weren't able to update to Buster - see post from my colleague here: viewtopic.php?t=3480

I'm on Stretch:

pi@RevPi42678:~ $ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="9"

I am using a core s3+ with the latest version of bullseye:

Code: Select all

cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="11"
VERSION="11 (bullseye)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bullseye
ID=debian
HOME_URL="https://www.debian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="https://www.debian.org/support"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"

Any ideas as to what the problem could be?
When running

Code: Select all

sudo apt install -y raspberrypi-kernel-headers wireguard-dkms wireguard

I get the following kernel error:

Dear Jules.

I think on Bullseye you don't need the kernel module. Can you please try the following:

Code: Select all

sudo apt install -y raspberrypi-kernel-headers wireguard

You may probably even omit the raspberrypi-kernel-headers package, but not sure.
