You could try to install them manually and see if it gives any more specific information on why those packages aren't being installed. Maybe your system has another incompatible version installed needed by your system.

Also, make sure you run

Code:

apt-get update

and an

Code:

apt-get install -f

may help as well

Which version of Ubuntu are you running?

Could you please also paste the output from the following command so that we can check that your software sources are set up correctly:

Code:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*}

As TheEzekielProject suggested, run "sudo apt-get -f install" in a Terminal window, and it should automatically correct the dependencies for you.

serious reason for proceeding carefully. You should be in "admin mode" for this solution, IMO.

We will need to examine the repositories of this "ubuntu" computer, please open a terminal and issue

Code:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*}

Also, we could use the output of

Code:

cat /etc/lsb-release

Please use [code]output here[/code]
Where you used [b] and [/b] in your opening post, Convert those to [code] and [/code] and you will help preserve formatting of your outputs on most forums.

Or another shorter (less typing!) method...
in the terminal, issue

Code:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*} | nc termbin.com 9999

and paste the short url link.

in a terminal, you can in "admin mode" check the apt package system first, by issuing

Code:

sudo apt-get install -f

or some use or I have seen

Code:

sudo apt-get -f install

I would NOT follow any suggestion to "Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them" at this time.

Don't panic.

TheEzekielProject · 07-20-2017, 01:53 PM

It would be nice if you could tell us what the error messages were or any more information other than the problem is just "still unresolved".

Also, go ahead and run

Code:

dpkg --get-selections | grep hold

to see if you have any held packages like your last post indicates

This is more or less meaningless. Which application is it (a browser or something else?) What did you try to accomplish at all? How is it related to the original post?

The program isn't "talking" to the database, so

You'll need to give "koha_library" mysql privs, usually, like so, at the terminal using

Code:

mysql-uroot -p

and the root_mysql password

Code:

grant ALL PRIVILEGES on <koha_db>.* to 'koha_library'@'localhost' identified by '<password>';flush privileges; exit;

at the c-line:

Code:

mysql -ukoha_library -p < enter>

and enter the given password in the last command above.
when you are logged in in to mysql as the koha_library "user", issue a

Code:

show databases;

and you should see the <koha_db> in the result.
Try your username/password after that at 127.0.1.1:80 or 127.0.1.1:8080

Good Luck!

martech · 07-21-2017, 08:48 AM

Thanks so much for your support
but after typing this code

"mysql -ukoha_library -p < enter>"

as you requested this was what it returns

Quote:

bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'

thanks
