Installing RabbitMQ – Stack Overflow

I am trying to install rabbitMQ on a server. Here are my system details

PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS"
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION_ID="22.04"
VERSION="22.04.2 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)"

I followed this instruction

https://www.rabbitmq.com/install-debian.html#apt-quick-start-cloudsmith

The last step in that guide is

sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server -y --fix-missing

but that command gives an error in my case

# sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server -y --fix-missing
