sudo apt-get update problem
 

Hi,
iam using ubuntu 9.10.
I tried to install lamp server using the command
sudo tasksel install lamp-server
It shows this error:
tasksel:aptitude failed(100)

i tried to fix the problem by using the command

sudo apt-get update
but it shows a list of cannnot fetch and many more.
example:
W: Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/...c/main/binary-
i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 111.91.91.34 80]

Can anyone fix this problem.
Please explain the steps in detail.

Thanks a lot.

sudo apt-get update problem!
 

I ve posted the error msg.
can anyone fix this??


Thanks a lot,
yasokrish

Post your /etc/apt/sources.list.

Anyway http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/...86/Packages.gz works for me. Is your ISP/government/whatever blocking access to in.archive.ubuntu.com? Can you get to http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ ?

Were you able to install packages on the same network before , if yes then it might be temporary issue with your ISP or it has been deliberately blocked by your admin.
