LinuxMCE install failure

[steve ling]

Trouble installing LinuxMCE 1.0 on a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.10 desktop. Here is the log. Busy server maybe?

BTW, I selected No for DHCP server while I try out LinuxMCE. I already have a DHCP server. If I decide to keep LinuxMCE I will give it a subnet of its own.

ERROR : Failed to install and configure the base software

[digitaldan]

It looks your having trouble connecting to the main ubuntu servers for retrieveing updated packages (not linuxmce related).  The ubuntu folks may be using some DNS based load balancing to determine which mirror you get.  Thier latest release Just came out this week so many of their mirrors are slammed.  I would try it again and see if the problem fixes it self.

[ddamron]

Hi Steve, Yeah, it is due to the mirrors going down...

in my experience, I've been able to install about 6 times over, (trying different configs, etc) but yesterday, I could not install at all, was getting timeout errors, and connections lost...

Also, I was trying to update 6.10 and was receiving the same errors...
most definately, was an ubuntu repository issue...
I tried again today, and all is (still slow, but) better.

Keep in mind, ubuntu has released fiesty yesterday, so the servers are probably going to be pretty busy for the next few days dealing with that..

Good luck with your install

Dan

[steve ling]

I tried several more times and still getting errors. Is anyone getting the installer to work?

[steve ling]

I tried taking all the defaults on the LinuxMCE installer and that worked. I guess it didn't like me saying no to the DHCP server.

Finally got a successful install. Now I can graduate from the "Installation Issue" forum to the "User" forum .
