Hi Raju, thanks for reporting your problem. We'll have some of our team look over you code and give suggestions on how to get this installation completed.

Hi Raju, thanks for getting in touch. We do not support Ubuntu at this time; that's the reason for this error message. You mentioned that you downloaded the Debian package. That package will work with Debian, versions 5 and 6. Further details are on our download page; each package indicates what distribution(s) and version(s) of Linux it will install on. If you are running the enterprise version of Vertica, we encourage you to use our new pre-configured AMIs. Unfortunately, these are not yet available for the CE; you'll have to install yourself using our cloud-installation instructions. Our enterprise AMIs are running CentOS 6.3. If you're installing Vertica yourself in the cloud, please note that both network and hard-disk performance can be bottlenecks in cloud systems. You can improve both substantially by the choice and configuration of your AMIs; various people online have studied different ways to do this.
