[mint 14] Update problems

Posted: Tue Dec 18, 2012 10:40 am

Hi all,

To be short, my computer with linux mint 14 was out of the running for several days and now that i'm up and running it is asking for updates. First of all, i got the mint update (version 4.4.4 to 4.4.7) installed using the GUI but after that it could not find the servers of linux mint 14 (nadia).

Normally i update mint using command line. When i did this i got serveral 404 errors and one 500 internal server error (before using GUI)

My question in all this, is it safe to update?

How can I upgrade my software sources to Nadia?

I'm wondering if the mint repos aren't currently down. I'm getting errors when trying to update Mint 13 as well. I'd suggest waiting a while and trying it again.

I seem to be having the SAME issue .. just started this morning...
I see an update due for MintUpdate and serveral other items, but can not get there ...

I get this message: "W: Failed to fetch http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main ... .7_all.deb
Could not connect to packages.linuxmint.com:80 (204.45.82.194). - connect (110: Connection timed out)"

Nothing else as far as connectivity seems to be broken.

Here is my output:

Thank you for any assistance and direction as to how to solve this on my own next time :mrgreen:

MintUpdate unauthenticated?

This is kind of strange, saw that I had updates available today, but when I went to apply them I received this warning in the screenshot. For now I am being safe and not updating this one. Anyone else receive this?

The 'packages.linuxmint.com' is timing out (for me in the USA), so even if one continues the update it will, at this moment, fail with this message:

Code: Select all

W: Failed to fetch http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main/m/mintupdate/mintupdate_4.4.7_all.deb
  Could not connect to packages.linuxmint.com:80 (204.45.82.194). - connect (110: Connection timed out)
I'd say this is one of those 'be patient' moments?

Linux Mint repository was down for a while today. Try again.

Edit: it's still having troubles, but it's not only for you.

Same thing here, from The Netherlands. Just a matter of time to be solved, I guess.

More somewhat related discussion at this thread:

http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=118880

I should have noted in my previous post that the 'authentication' error is most likely because 'mintupdate' is _not_ able to read the 'Release.gpg' key file since the affected server is timing out at this time?

I am using LinuxMint 13 (maya) with mate\compiz desktop. I updated yesterday and got a new mintupdate version and then Today I did an update and got the newest version of mintupdate (4.4) released today. For some reason now I get a nasty red x in the update icon and the following error when refreshing:

It doesn't matter if I do a terminal update or through the gui, same error. It seems to be something wrong with the servers. Does anyone have a clue how to resolve this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

I ran the output again under sudo to get the system information. I gather cpu temps and fan speeds from the first output probably aren't that helpful 8)
