Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-manager
During a Dapper->Gutsy upgrade, if /etc/apt/apt.conf contains: Acquire::http::Proxy "http://localhost:3128/";; And there is no proxy listening, the upgrade silently fails -- it appears that the upgrade fetched the files but then could not extract them (the actual case is that it never fetched them): # do-release-upgrade -d Checking for a new ubuntu release Failed Upgrade tool signature Failed Upgrade tool Done downloading extracting 'hardy.tar.gz' Failed to extract Extracting the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server. strace shows the http method failing: [pid 29230] write(1, "400 URI Failure\nURI: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/main/dist-upgrader- all/current/hardy.tar.gz\nMessage: Could not connect to localhost:3128 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused) \nFailReason: ConnectionRefused\nTransient-Failure: true\n\n", 259) = 259 ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- silent fetch failure if proxy mis-configured https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
