My son tunneled in and found the boot drive was full and fixed and fully updated my system.

Thanks Justin,

Hi,

Can you check which package is broken?
Have you checked free space on the /boot volume?

Cheers.

That is what I have been trying to figure out - How to find those broken packages.  I am quite a novice and, as it sits, don't know how to go about checking for free space in the boot volume.

Thanks!

I ran it just as stated and this was the last line:  "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
I rebooted and the broken packages message is still there.

Installation and Upgrades / [Solved]How do I find "Broken Packages"?

« on: April 21, 2014, 08:51:13 am »

On my dashboard in the Software box I have the following message in red;
"You have broken packages installed, fix them before upgrading"
I have not figured out how to find the broken packages let alone fix them.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Roger

News and Announcements / Re: Zentyal 3.2 available!

When I attempted to upgrade for 3.0.27 per instructions and upon entering;
"sudo apt-get update"
I get back;
"E: Type '/zentyal(.)3.0/zentyal13.2/g' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read."
What did I do wrong?

run this command from terminal sudo sed -ri 's/zentyal(.)3.0/zentyal\13.2/g' /etc/apt/sources.list or go just go in and edit the sources.list find zentyal 3.0 and replace with 3.2 than apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should now get the new packages to upgrade to 3.2

That is just what I did and everytime I do "sudo apt-get update" I get the same response.  My fear is that I mistyped the command you suggested on my first attempt to upgrade and corrupted the /etc/apt/sources.list file and can't or don't know how to go back.  Any help?  What should the Sources.list file look like?

Edit the sources.list look for the following two lines below or simlar.
Once that you have found the bad lines remove them
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/zentyal/3.0/ubuntu precise main

deb http://archive.zentyal.org/zentyal 3.0 main extra

Replace them with the following two lines:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/zentyal/3.2/ubuntu precise main

deb http://archive.zentyal.org/zentyal 3.2 main extra

now from terminal window
sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should now get the new packages to upgrade to 3.2

I found the two lines specified and edited them in nano, and saved.  Ran "Sudo apt-get update" and again the same results.  While looking at the sources.list file I noticed that every other line plus read "/zentyal(.)3.0/zentyal13.2/g".  I thought this was odd but don't know what an actual sources.list file should look like.

Thanks again for your help.

I have attached my source.list file from Zentyal 3.0 server

THANKS!
Your file confirmed my suspicions of the multiple extrainous lines.  I deleted them and bingo, all working.
Thanks again, Roger
