Ubuntu Security :: Sudo Apt-get Update The Update Failed Because The Connection To The India Mirror Timed Out
Jun 1, 2010
I am from India, and I tried to update my Ubuntu system today. Code: $sudo apt-get update The update failed because the connection to the India mirror timed out: Code: [URL] Could not connect to in.archive.ubuntu.com:80 (111.91.91.37). - connect (110: Connection timed out) I tried the update a few times, with the same result every time.
I had firestarter running at this time, and noticed that I would get new security events every time I tried an update. I checked the events list, and it turned out that the machine at the ip address 111.91.91.37 (the in.archive.ubuntu.com machine, to go by the above error message) had been trying to make connections to seemingly random ports on the machine every time I tried the update: see the attached screenshot. I then changed my repositories to the Main Server using Synaptic, and tried the update again (from the command-line). This time it worked without a hitch, and firestarter did not report any unwanted incoming connection. why is the India mirror trying to open connections that the Main server apparently does not need in order for me to do the update? Should I (we) be concerned?

I have been getting these errors while running update manager and I can't seem to find specific information or how to resolve these problems. Was hoping someone could please provide me with some details about why they are occurring so I can deal with them myself next time and how I can go about fixing them now.

Five days back, i got a notification on top right side mentioning "The update information is outdated. This may be caused by network problems or by a repository that is no longer available. Please update manually by clicking on this icon and then selecting 'Check for updates' and check if some of the listed repositories fail."
So, i go ahead and click it.. it says it is downloading 1 of 19 files and after some time, i get the error mentioning "W: Failed to fetch [URK] Could not connect to 87.89.43.193:3128 (87.89.43.193), connection timed out"
I went into Software Sources and tried different servers from different countries, but there wasn't any luck. I also unchecked the repository that was giving the problem but nothing was getting downloaded from other repositories as well.

I am trying to update my server, but it won't do it. It tries to connect, but says "Waiting for headers". If i try to install other packages it says "Connection failed". Apparently it has Internet connection since my server shares Internet connection with other machines.

I have a very strange problem; when trying to apt-get update or aptitude update I get time out errors. At first it was resolving ipv6 adresses:
Cannot initiate the connection to ftp.litnet.lt:80 (2001:778::87). - connect (101: Network is unreachable) [IP: 2001:778::87 80] Err [URL] Cannot initiate the connection to security.debian.org:80 (2001:a78:5:1:216:35ff:fe7f:6ceb). - connect (101: Network is
unreachable) [IP: 2001:a78:5:1:216:35ff:fe7f:6ceb 80] As my host does not have normal ipv6 support, i just tried to disable ipv6: echo net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 > /etc/sysctl.d/disableipv6.conf

I just installed FC12 and was trying to do the security update, but it encountered an "internal error" and asked me to "report this bug to the distribution's bugtracker" with the details. However, I am not sure exactly what to do. Could someone be kind enough to let me know?

I don't know why but my server is no longer successfully updating its security repositories when I run 'apt-get update' on my system.Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.Did I mess something up? No changes have been made to the server and I ran 'apt-get clean' and that didn't really do much.

I can't update anymore since a few days :
Download (curl) error for [URL]...
Error code: Connection failed
Error message: Failed to connect to 2a01:e0c:1:1598::1: Network is unreachable
I read somewhere that I should deactivate IPv6, which I did with no success. It seems to happen since I upgraded gnome following this link : Archive:GNOME 2.30 - openSUSE My Internet connection is of course alive and working.

I've been trying since yesterday to install autoten per instructions below [URL]. However it has failed each time I have tried. Below is the terminal response.
Code:
[colyn@Fedora ~]$ su
Password:
[root@Fedora colyn]# rpm -Uvh [URL]
Retrieving [URL]
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: dnmouse.org; Connection timed out
error: skipping [URL] - transfer failed

I am doing a copy/paste so I am not mis-typing the information. It says that the connection has timed out but I get the error message within 5 seconds of hitting enter.

I am having an issue with KPackageKit, actually 2 issues but one makes it unusable. The major issue is that when I go to apply the updates I get the following error message (at least here are the details of the message)
Code:
Download (curl) error for 'http://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/11.4/repodata/repomd.xml':
Error code: Connection failed
Error message: Couldn't resolve proxy 'HTTP_PROXY'
I do not run my connection through a proxy and my internet works correctly. This is on a laptop I upgraded using zypper from 11.3 to 11.4 (I did the same with a desktop which does not have this issue). zypper refresh successfully refreshes the repositories, and the various Yast repo tools all work correctly. Additionally after I am shown the updates and am prompted for root pw, the packages will no longer show up for a while, each time it tries to look for updates the message comes through but they will show up after a while again. The other issue I have is that it requests my pw multiple times, this also happens on my desktop that actually will update. I get prompted twice, they are immediate and back to back. This one is a little minor annoyance but there should be no reason that it needs to make this request multiple times.

I recently made a script to automatically download a directory from my webserver using ftps (required by hosting company). It seems policy has changed again or something, because trying to download files gets the following error:
mirror: Access failed: 521 Data connection cannot be opened with this PROT setting.I can access the files just fine with Filezilla, but not lftp. I didn't change the code, but here it as anyway:
lftp -f ~/the/file/below
Quote:
open -u USERNAME,PASSWORD DOMAIN
lcd /local/place/to/put/files
mirror
quit
I tried manually, login works fine, but nothing can be done after that.until this works again I've broken a backup system of mine.

I was running 10.04 LTS and had decided to stick to the LTS versions as I'm now running my machine as a server and don't want to be updating regularly.Every time I logged in via SSH I got a message telling me there where packages to update including a security update. So I did a search to find out how to perform an update on Ubuntu server from the command line.What I found was to do this:sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get dist-upgradeAfter doing that I rebooted but now my machine gives me this message:
init: ureadahead-other main process (794) terminated with status 4Your disk drives are being checked for errors, this may take some timePress C to cancel all checks currently inprogressI'm not pressing C yet and leaving it alone to finish, but I noticed when the machine booted that one of the options for booting talked about Ubuntu 10.10, so I'm worried that I've updated from 10.04 LTS to 10.10 by accident?

After click on install updates and entering password, a message says "Some of the packages could not be retrieved from the server(s). Do you want to continue, ignoring these packages? Yes/No.
If I answer No, this message appears:

If Yes, it tries to download but immediately:

It has always installed the updates with no problems, until these 3 updates remain in pending installation status.

I was running an update to updgrade firefox to the latest version. the update timed out and now when i boot the laptop i get the command line login. Typing startx brings a screen with a black cross in the middle and a black and white background.
In the boot process a lot of errors are coming up saying "conf files need .conf". Also i have noticed an error that says the xorg.conf file is not where it should be. I know this is responsible for graphical boots so could be my problem. However yast and network services are also not working in the command line so i am unable to update to fix this. I installed from a live CD so im unsure how to use this to repair my system?

How can I make the security applet stop showing an update for firefox 3.5.9? I have a more recent version installed from mozilla repo: firefox 3.6. The mozilla repo already has a higher priority (95 instead of 99), so I don't know what to do.

when I am run:
ssh -v "login"@"server"
I get:
OpenSSH_5.3p1 Debian-3ubuntu4, OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to server ["address"] port 22.
debug1: connect to address "address" port 22: Connection timed out
ssh: connect to host "server" port 22: Connection timed out
I suppose this is because I am connecting from a public institute where there is a firewall that is blocking an outbound connection on port 22.Is there anyway I can bypass the firewall using the internet ?

I am just out of curiosity working with honeypot and found there are two way for arpd to route the unused IP to honeypot with blackhole and arp spoofing.Now to test, I am arp spoofing 5 machines from 192.168.100.41 to .45 and also honeypot is monitoring this range too. But I have setup a real machine with webserver in between this range and gave IP address 192.168.100.45.Now logically as arp and honeypot both are monitoring this range so they capture this request as below from log:
PHP Code:
arpd[1690]: arpd_lookup: no entry for 192.168.100.45
arpd[1690]: arpd_send: who-has 192.168.100.45 tell 192.168.100.10
arpd[1690]: arpd_send: who-has 192.168.100.45 tell 192.168.100.10
arpd[1690]: arp reply 192.168.100.45 is-at 08:00:27:00:76:e5
arpd[1690]: arp reply 192.168.100.45 is-at 08:00:27:00:76:e5
code....
Now arpd is redirecting the traffic to honeypot machine as there is a real system with real MAC address. But from 192.168.200.10 I can also view the webpage of 192.168.100.45 machine. But most of the time it says "Connection Timed out".
Should it be acting like this or it shouldn't be showing me the webpage at all?

I wanted to installed transmission on my buntu server box 10.10 tonite so from my laptop top i ssh'd into it...which took an unordinary amount of time.. went to type in sudo apt-get install transmission half way through each word at the terminal prompt it would just hang...had to wait then it would recognize my typing and i could continue....pressed enter waited a long time; then noticed i coulnd't connect to the repos?
So i manually (as in sitting at the box not over ssh) tried to ping google nothing....sudo apt-get update....nothing....
- i restarted the machine twice
-sudo ifdown eth0 /sudo ifup eth0
sudo nano /etc/networking/interfaces made sure it said

An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:

I've been using Ubuntu for awhile, so I know my way around some stuff, but I'm completely lost on what to do here.
