Tried to install openssh-server from Package Manager and received message: broken; also tried Synaptic and apt, same result.
Using apt, I get following message:
Code: Select all
dpkg: error processing openssh-server (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
openssh-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/ returned an error code (1)
Is there a list source list error? What else could cause error?

can you give the whole apt message? that's the summary at the end, just means the postinstall script errored somewhere. My guess would be enableing the service failed, but that is a guess.
FWIW MX17/18 is nearing end of life. Debian drops support at the end of June.

Look near the end of /var/log/dpkg.log to see if there's any more detail.

Support will end for Stretch in June 30, 2022 -- that's a month away. It might be worth putting effort into upgrading the computer than trying to fix this.

I just did a test install of openssh-server on my MX-18 VirtualBox VM and it installed OK so it's something specific to your install.
Here's the log since openss install"

I noticed systemd was mentioned; I'm on the older system, init.d. Would that be the cause?

...
can you give the whole apt message? that's the summary at the end, just means the postinstall script errored somewhere. My guess would be enableing the service failed, but that is a guess.
FWIW MX17/18 is nearing end of life. Debian drops support at the end of June.
Here it is:

I was thinking of upgrading; as it is, my old 1GB Ram and 1GB CPU may not be able to handle the upgrade.

The openssh-server cong script ( /var/lib/dpkg/info/openssh-server.config ) is pretty simple. It just uses /bin/sh and perl.

If you have removed perl or installed a non-standard perl, or linked a shell other than bash or dash to /bin/sh that might cause the failure. Neither seems likely to me but I can't think of anything else.
I checked openssh.server.config ; it has correct /bin/sh
Synaptic lists openssh-server and ssh as broken [!] in red colour; that's why I was wondering if it was a source list issue.
Thanks

Gave up on openssh-server; successfully using smbclient instead.
