Ubuntu :: Red Triangle Again - Some Index Files Failed To Download
Dec 28, 2010
Been a while since I had the 'update information is outdated' irritant, but it is back with me now. It was on 10.04 anyway and I am now running 10.10. I've checked for updates manually and get:
W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: [URL] maverick Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 16126D3A3E5C1192
W: Failed to fetch [URL]
W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
My other Ubuntu (10.10) box is happily downloading updates but I can't remember the last time any updates were available for the box in question.
Well a bit earlier today I was trying to install the latest VLC following steps from this link:it instructed:Code:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome-media-player-development/developmentsudo apt-get updateBut after the sudo apt-get updateI started getting errors at the end.. here is my log after running it:

I am getting this errors when I check for new updates: Code: W:Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found , W:Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
W: Failed to fetch [URL] Hash Sum mismatch E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. Tried 3 different mirrors all have the same error. I assume this is the same issue we had a while back where one package was messing things up. Mirrors I my sources.list
I keep getting this error when trying to update but I know it is a bug and has been filed as a bug report.

It's up in the top "toolbar" of Natty and it has a red exclamation mark inside. It tells me my "update information is outdated" and so, naturally, I clicked it. It opens my "Update Manager" which tells me "there are no updates to install" and "The package information was last updated 11 days ago."
So I click the "check" button and the following pops up in a window: Failed to download repository information Check your Internet connection.
Code: W:Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found , W:Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
My internet connection, contrary to the information provided, is fantastic (I've also tried 2 different locations).
When I check for updates, it just malfunctions and i get this hogwash: W: Failed to fetch [URL] Could not connect to packages.freecontrib.org:80 (34.52.53.34), connection timed out
W: Failed to fetch [URL] Unable to connect to packages.freecontrib.org http: W: Failed to fetch [URL] Unable to connect to packages.freecontrib.org http: W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
Recently i was about to installing skype, for that i have to check the repostory in the software Source...after that it shows me the message for Reload and then it starts Downloading but at the last it shows me the message "Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. "
When trying to download any software on Ubuntu 10.10, I receive the error message "Failed to download package files - check your internet connection". I am however connected to the internet.
I just recently installed Ubuntu on my laptop and was attempting to install Wine on it this morning. I went through the proper procedure listed on the site, but once I get back to the Software Center and hit "install" it gives me an error a second later saying "Failed to Download Package Files. Check your Internet connection."
I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 but "whenever i try to download or install any software from 'Ubuntu software Center'it gives error: "Failed to download Package Files Check your internet Connection" Internet is working fine!I've also tried the command: "sudo apt-get update"
Amarok will play flac files just fine, but when i try to index them into the library via "Update collection" they are not added.
All other threads i can find on this kind of thing also have Amarok not playing flac....but if i drag and drop them in, they play just fine, so i know its not a codec problem.
Is there something i have to enable? Like in some media players, you can set which formats are scanned for...but i cant seem to find such a feature available in any of the Amarok settings...
My apache ignores index files (index.php ,index.html ,index.htm , ...) and while these files exists in directory apache lists directory content!I mean http://localhost/test/ lists directory content instead of showing index.php!
am writing a small search program for my class. I have decided to use indexing for my program. Ive researched online about indexing and how search engines do it. If im gonno do that I need to create inverted files to associate files to numbers ( numbers being the index of my paths ) . Now I was wondering what would be the best way to create an inverted file ? I was going to create sql tables using mysql api in C but then again there is no array data type or vectors to store few numbers in a single column in mysql and it is not advised to use Enum or SET
I scanned hundreds of pages in gray scale and would like to batch process them to B&W. You can do this using the gimp GUI. what it does is get rid of all the gray shading from reflections off the paper when scanned. So you get crisp white backgrounds with black text and diagrams. I would like to simply do this to the entire group directory at one time as it would be quite a lot of effort to open them and do them one by one.
First off. I'm not using Ubuntu Server. But I'm trying to get XAMPP set up so I can test Wordpress themes I make. Using 9.10. I got XAMPP installed using the Instructions from Apache Friends. When I went to Localhost I got the language page. Selected English but nothing happened.
Something is wrong with the XAMPP installation :-( I searched and found a couple Index.php files. Deleted one. And now when I go to localhost I get a "Index of" page.I removed the XAMPP folder, Deleted Apache, PHP from Synaptic(They got reinstalled when i reinstalled XAMPP btw). Installed LAMP but it still does it. Maybe reinstall XAPP and copy the index.php files from another Comp?.
I have SLES10 SP3 with Apache2 in version 2.2.3 and php5.
I have a virtual host configuration with one vhost.
The /etc/apache2/listen.conf:
Code:
In _web-ims.conf:
Code:
This directory (/etc/apache2/conf.d) also contains the php-config-file php5.conf which now gets interpreted (I suppose):
Code:
Actually things are working OK.
However, ON THE SERVER php only gets interpreted by the FireFox browser when called upon localhost: [url] //Works fine.
When called thru the IP:
BUT when I call [url]
FROM ANOTHER CLIENT-COMPUTER, for example my windows computer with XP, using Internet Explorer, then it works!
So, does s.o. have any idea why the same call that does work on another client does not work on the Server? And why does the call with localhost on the server work?
Is that a bug in the FireFox-Browser or where do I have to tell him that he should interpret the php-code also from the IP and not only from loccalhost?
Recently, when trying to update, a red triangle appears in the top tool bar. Here is the message in full... The repository may no longer be available or could not be corrected because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preference is correct

Dear all I am new to git (and storing multiple copies of my code).
I was using git for one month (git status, git add, git commit) to store my files.
I have problems to add more files to my branch
git add BasisExpansion.R fatal: Unable to write new index file
this was working great unless the day my system administrator destroyed my main partition (it was an accident) and installed everything from scratch. My home directory stayed intact (I did not lose any files not git files that are stored under /home). But from this point of time git returns always that error. My system administrator creater the same user and group as my old user was but this didnot fix the problem.
I am not sure If I can recover my old git structure or would it be better to wipe out the old git dir and start a new one?
