@wls-itguy looks like you have a problem with your system and insserve. I've seen it recommended to remove it as too many things don't support it.

apt-get remove insservNot sure if I can as I might need it for the EZ Proxy part that is on that server. But I'll see what I can do.

And on Windows 2008 R2 using the SuperDOS script:
PowerShell doesn't have Invoke-Webrequest? That's a really old cmdlet. I noticed the Debian system having issues is not patched, is this Windows maybe not patched either? We can always get the script another way, but not having PowerShell makes it a little harder.

EZ Proxy is specifically one of the packages not working with it.

Had to restore the debian system from backup. I'll patch it before I try installing the SS agent again.
The Windows box didn't have any updates needed.

Very strange that PS doesn't have that cmdlet when updated.
If PowerShell is too hold for the job, you can use the fallback manual download:
Once downloaded, open the folder it is in, right click and "Run As Admin"

That's not good. Those errors don't appear to be from the install, though, they appear to be from existing packages that can't update.

Powershell versions did not update with Windows Update by default in 2008 R2 to my knowledge.

It doesn't. Just read that on the Google. I am updating now.

So it definitely has problems even on the restore without any SS on there? Not that I'm happy about that, but sure didn't want to be the cause of any problems.

Googled to verify..
Invoke-Webrequestwas implemented with Powershell 3.0 in 2012.That is after Server 2008 R2.

Correct. Seems there are some other things going sideways on that box. Good thing it is only a Proxy server. I'll spin up a new VM for it and move the limited data over tomorrow.

Update to Windows Management Framework 5.1 can help with that. Just need .Net 4.5 or higher.
