Also, keep in mind that the wheezy/updates repository (the one pointing at security.debian.org) does not have the contrib and non-free subsections.

I had to type by hand everything I see on my desktop monitor.
I have no way of copy and paste it's in console mode only.

Cheers!

I made an error (I had .org in one line where it should have been .net) but fixed it with an edit. I hope you used the edited version and not the original. Please check it before doing

Code:

aptitude update && aptitude upgrade

Just a guess although I think it is related, when Wheezy was testing Debian upgraded console output to colour so the user could pin point warnings by colour instead of having to read each and every line looking for the word warning. Other colours indicate normal operation and individual user settings. There may be more but that's all I know of.

In this case this is what I now have. -- Please point out which one or ones I need to re-edit.

Code:

 deb http://http.debian.net/debian stable main contrib non free
 deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contri non free
 deb http://http.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non free
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main

k3lt01 · 01-28-2014, 01:45 AM

All the lines except for

Code:

deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main

start with the same

Code:

deb http://http.debian.net/debian

section. The sources.list should now look like this code block below (as it is after I edited the post above).

Code:

deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non-free
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main

Code:

It does now.

Now I'll run:

Code:

aptitude update && aptitude upgrade

Be back in a few min's to let you know how it went--

My repos's are right now.

Is this a authentication issue?

Maybe the repo's are just that busy? (guessing)

Does it? Not by post 51 it doesn't. It should be

Code:

deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non-free
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main

It seems to me you actually have

Code:

deb http://http.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb http://http.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non-free
deb http://http.debian.org/debian wheezy-backports main

instead. This is why you have this error

Code:

tures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2

I fixed the mistake I found in my sources list.
I checked my sources list 3 times to be sure I didn't make another typing mistake.

Code:

deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non free
deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main

I'm still getting Failed to fetch:

I pulled my best mate into my computer room to look at my sources.list to check that I didn't make a mistake. We agreed that my sources list is correct and matches what you said it should be.

Is it possible that this could be a bug?

OK, understanding your post that you pulled your mate in to check things there are still errors in this quote. We are getting to a stage were 2 things need to be considered very carefully.
1. You need to make sure what you are hand typing here is exactly what is on your computer. Any errors here can influence any reply you are going to get. As an example check the line with wheezy-updates and notice you have non free when it should be non-free. Until we are confident of your sources.list being correct we are chasing our tails. Also check the first "failed to fetch" line there is an error there in the http address.
2. Do you think it may be time to just do a reinstall? We can chase our tails like this (considering the time zone difference and the delay between posts and replies etc) for days yet a reinstall can be completed in 30 minutes. I personally think that is the wise thing to do, I'll continue to help as best I can if you want to keep going how we are but do you have the patience to keep going like this?

I don't think it's a bug, I think something is lost in translation.

I had errors starting the computer this morning.
Had to boot it 3 times--(update finally worked)--
Before it finally booted into console mode I had all this:

This is an incredible amount of output to type....
If you really need me to type it I can but for now I have to take a break....

I'll leave the system on since I had trouble starting it.
Looking at all of the output it appears that the update && the upgrade were a complete success.

How do I get back to the GUI?
startx?

Do you suspect trouble with the CPU or the mobo based on the -- "BUG: soft lockup-CPU#3 stuck for 23s!"-- message I had at start up today?

Be back later...have to go to work--

k3lt01 · 01-29-2014, 03:01 PM

Now that you are up to date just do a startx and see what happens. If it starts X let us know what it starts into login manager or Desktop Environment.

Also I wouldn't startx as root so please make sure you are in your normal user account before you do that.

I don't suspect any hardware issues, what I do suspect is your package management system has had some problems and this problems are very deep in the system and may have broken other things.
