APT remain stuck on [Waiting for headers]
Hi,
I am stuck on a problem from a few days. I took a look on Google but I did not solve this.. When I run apt-get update, it remains stuck on "[Waiting for headers]". For example: Code:
sudo apt-get update Any suggestion to solve this probkem ? Regards, S. |
The mirror you are using may be down.

Have a look in /var/log/apt. One of the log files in there might tell you something.
I have encountered this occasionally. It appears to result from apt's having trouble reaching one of the servers it's trying to query. In my experience, the issue has usually cleared up after a short wait. In other words, the problem is most likely external to your system. |
Uh, there is something strange..
I took a look at the original website here for the repos: https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList, so I changed the sources.list file according to the examle for Debian 8/Jessie. Curiously, now remain stuck on 100% ... Code:
sudo apt-get update |
Well, it seems that the security server from the Debian website link
Code:
http://security.debian.org/] This is strange.. Regards, S |
I just ran an update on my Debian box and it proceeded without incident. I'm using US servers, so this would indicate it is not a Debian-wide problem.
