Need help with apt-cacher errors please(SOLVED)

[pompeyrodney]

I have an apt-cacher server that feeds updates to four other client machines on my local network. It all works fine but each time I run update manager I receive the following two errors:

Code: Select all

Failed to fetch http://192.168.1.101:3142/gb/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-updates/restricted/i18n/translations-en_Gb.bz2 Error reading from server (104 connection reset by peer)
Failed to fetch http://192.168.1.101:3142/security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-security/release.gpg Error reading from server (104 connection reset by peer)

I should point out that the server is running Ultimate Edition 2.2, two clients are on jaunty 9.04 and two on Ultimate Edition 2.2. The errors are shown on the client machines. It would be much appreciated if someone could help me get to the bottom of this, thanks.

Hello pompeyrodney .

that is the FIX for your problem there with the keys for the update.
go to the home directory of the 2 systems with the problem.
make new doc that will cold errors.txt
past the errors that you have into the errors.txt like that:



then run that command in the terminal to fix the keys issue just copy and past in terminal:

Code: Select all

for i in `cat errors.txt | grep PUBKEY | awk -F "PUBKEY" '{print $2}'` ; do gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys $i ; gpg --export --armor $i | sudo apt-key add - ; done

hope it will solve your problem.

Hi Amir
Thanks once again for your help. I created the errors.txt file in my home directory and then ran your command in a terminal. I am presumably getting something wrong as i am still getting this:

Code: Select all

W: Failed to fetch http://192.168.1.101:3142/gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-updates/restricted/i18n/Translation-en_GB.bz2  Error reading from server - read (104 Connection reset by peer)

W: Failed to fetch http://192.168.1.101:3142/security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-security/Release.gpg  Error reading from server - read (104 Connection reset by peer)

E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

The terminal does not give me any feedback when I run your command and goes straight back to a julian@jaunty2:~$ prompt. The above code is all I put in the errors.txt file.

Code: Select all

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Hi Amir
I have added those lines to my sources.list file and ran an apt-get update. This is what I now get :

Code: Select all

GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY BCD80C6A6E3C0CE5

Presumably I just need the correct command to add this key now?

Hi pompeyrodney.

O.K so now just make the errors.txt in your home directory,
as I have explain to you on this post.
and open terminal and copy=>past the script,that will fix the issue for you with the key:

Code: Select all

for i in `cat errors.txt | grep PUBKEY | awk -F "PUBKEY" '{print $2}'` ; do gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys $i ; gpg --export --armor $i | sudo apt-key add - ; done

good luck.
