Re: mint 14 mate a few errors??

Post by F3lix85 »

Its doing the same thing for me as well. I check to see if I could connect to packages.linuxmint.com and could not. Also checked using one of the "is this site down" pages and it says it is down so it looks like it is a server issue on their end.

Bad Signature

Post by badbrainsg »

My update manager does not download mintupdate 4.4.7. The error message is that the package has a bad signature.I received the sam error message I received using apt-get:
W: GPG error: http://packages.linuxmint.com nadia Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 3EE67F3D0FF405B2 Clement Lefebvre (Linux Mint Package Repository v1) <root@linuxmint.com>
Please tell me how this can be corrected.

PS/ apt-get worked where the Synaptice Package manager didn't.

Thanks!

Re: Bad Signature

Post by acw89 »

I am wondering if there is something wrong at the web site. I am on Mint 13 and can not get any of my regular update. I also geta failure on that Mint Update as it says it can not be validated. I will not upload it until that is fixed. I think these are 2 views of the same issure.

same here, it's because of the server, packages.linuxmint.com is down, the only thing you can do is wait for few more hours

Re: MintUpdate unauthenticated?

Post by RJim »

Well, thanks everyone, I'm glad it's not just me.

Being relatively new to Linux, I thought for a moment that it was actually a compromised package or some kind of malware.
Guess I'll just wait for it to be fixed, since it seems to be a server issue.

I'm having a similar problem.

When I try and use Software manager the progress bar stops halfway up while it's downloading package information.

Synaptic indicates that some files are upgradable, but the same thing happens when I try to refresh in synaptic.

sudo apt-get update results:

Linux Repositories Hacked, Files Deleted

Post by bustard »

According to a thread on mepislovers.org, some linux repositores
have been hacked and files deleted.

My mint debian os is having problems finding repository files
when it does a check for updates, or when I do a refresh.

Re: MintUpdate unauthenticated?

Post by martywd »

Possible workaround/fix:

Open Synaptic (Package Manager). Click 'Settings | Repositories'. On the 'LinuxMint Software' tab, next to 'Download from:' click on the down arrow, select: 'other...'. Click on the 'Select Best Server' button. Wait. When scan is done, click on 'Choose Server'. Close. Refresh 'Synaptic'.

Alternate from Terminal window:

Code: Select all

gksu software-properties-gtk &
Refresh/check: 'mintupdate'
.

Nope it appears I'm still having issues fetching with either apt or aptitude.

Anyone else still having issues?
