Hi all

My Add/Remove Applications app is playing up. When I try to add or remove an application (e.g. xsensors) I get the following message:

W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.serverhost.ro/trisquel/packages/pool/main/x/xsensors/xsensors_0.70-3_amd64.deb
Could not connect to mirrors.serverhost.ro:80 (86.105.226.252). - connect (111: Connection refused)

W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.serverhost.ro/trisquel/packages/pool/main/l/lm-sensors/lm-sensors_3.4.0-2_amd64.deb
Unable to connect to mirrors.serverhost.ro:http:

Any thoughts?

Hello!

Looks like the serverhost.ro repo is down (again). If you'd like me to help, please post the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list". (This is your sources.list file that specifies the repo from which packages will be downloaded.)

Was it ever back up?

Thanks so much chaosmonk. Looks like that has done the trick!

Actually, I had the same issue on 2 machines. The second machine I did not get so far. It asked me to check my internet connection and gave me the following alert:

W:The repository 'http: flidas-security Release' does not have a Release file., W:Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use., W:See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details., E:Method gave invalid 400 URI Failure message: Unable to connect to :http:, E:Method gave invalid 400 URI Failure message: Unable to connect to :http:

Any thoughts?

Also - this is the alert I get when I try to use add/remove programs.
