Unable to update

Emegra · 12. Mai 2017

Hi guys

I posted this issue a while back but couldn't get a solution so I thought I'd try again

I have not been offered updates for at least 2 months now
running apt-get update failes every time with the following message at the end

Code

Traceback (most recent call last):             File "/usr/sbin/omv-mkaptidx", line 68, in <module>    cache = apt.cache.Cache()  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 102, in __init__    self.open(progress)  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 145, in open    self._cache = apt_pkg.Cache(progress)SystemError: E:The value 'stable' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sourcesReading package lists... Doneroot@Home-NAS:~#

Any help or advice would be much appreciated

Sorry, can't really help you. Did you try clean your apt?

Code

apt-get autoclean

or

Code

apt-get clean

There should also be a button in the omv webui, if I remember right.

Hi hoppell

Thanks for your help, I tried the commands you suggested

There seems to be an issue but I don't understand what it is
can anyone figure it out ?

Hello Emegra,

I made a liitle search and found this: OMV 1.18 CRON-APT Error: The value 'stable' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources

Which omv release do you use? The header of this thread says "OMV 0.2".

2.x is stable
3.x is beta (but also known as stable)

But maybe you find the solution in that thread.
