Can't access Adept
Hi,
I try to start Adept and I get a message saying that I cannot make any changes because the database is in use.. which to the best of my knowledge it isn't- I assume it is because of a crash a few days ago whilst using the program. Now I cannot do anything and need to regain access to the application. I assume I need to delete something from the /var/usr directory but I am a complete Linux noob and have no idea what to do so any help is appreciated. (My sincerest apologies if this is a duplicate post or in the wrong sub-forum) Thanks, Northerngeek (Using Kubuntu 6.06 LTS on i386 system) |
you could try
Code:
sudo kill $(sudo fuser /var/lib/dpkg/lock) |
Fantastic! Thanks a lot, worked like a charm.
