Hello Folks Sofware Updater GUI fails to update. It returns the message: “Failed to download repository information”. It also states: “Check your Internet connection”. There is nothing wrong with my internet connection otherwise I would not be able to post this. I updated the Kernel on my system…

At the moment it is up and down like a proverbial yo-yo. It worked for me this morning - and is currently very very slow.

Understood. Hopefully it will be resolved soon. :crossed_fingers:

Still down. Anyone got an eta as to when this will be fixed?

It’s strange: as far as I can tell, everything has been working fine for the past two days. Try using the terminal: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade :thinking:

Hello jlb Thank you for your response. Unfortunately that is a negative. Both archive and esm updates are not functioning.

Hello @The_Machine_101 Can you please post the terminal output from the command above — in a code block (using the “</>” button)?

[Image.jpeg] Hello jlb I believe this explains the situation.

Have you actually activated your ubuntu pro subscription? The actual jammy repos went EOL a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks. Enter this command and try again: sudo apt clean && sudo apt autoclean

Yes and covered until 2032 according to the subscription. I thought Jammy was end of life last year..

Thanks jlb but I have had enough of this. I will be leaving the distro. It is clear that ESM means nothing when the chips are down. Adios and thank you.
