Description

The documentation for installing Cloudstack explains that the public key for the APT-repository should be downloaded and installed:

sudo wget -O - http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/release.asc|apt-key add -

This gives an error:

$ wget -O - http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/release.asc|apt-key add -

ERROR: This command can only be used by root.

Sudo should be moved to the 'apt-key' command:

wget -O - http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/release.asc | sudo apt-key add -

This way, the key will import properly:

$ wget -O - http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/release.asc | sudo apt-key add -
