This looks a little odd. The deb config item is using http:// but the error messages say file://, 
which seems to me a different configuration choice, since you can do that with deb repos.

I'm wondering if you actually need that ./ trailing item in the deb line. It isn't actually doing 
anything but could confuse apt and/or apache.
