Why is my Ubuntu Software Center not opening?

Peeboaiy · 06-02-2010, 08:05 AM

I run an Ubuntu 9.10 and I was trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 but due to poor network connection I canceled the upgrading process. Since then my Ubuntu Software Center refuses to start.

Is there a message or something that could give us a clue?

NEVER kill the upgrade process. That will CORRUPT your software, due to partial installation!

This may be an APT repository issue, and if so, try this (in a terminal):

Code:

$ sudo apt-get update --fix-missing

Yeah, I tried that Kenny Strawn and it worked. Thanks
