    Package manager crashes

    I just did a clean install of Kubuntu 9.04, while trying to install java and flash my package manager crashed and even after a reboot it still crashes. I have already updated (wonder if that even works now), but it's not working, any ideas? Thanks!!

    What do mean "crashes" -- what is the error message?

      Re: Package manager crashes

      It says "An internal system error has occurred"
      "A problem that we were not expecting has occurred. Please report this bug with the error description.

      Details; Message did not receive a reply(timeout by message bus)"

        Let's start with basics:

        1. Internet connection is solid?
        Code:
        sudo ping [url]www.google.com[/url]
        and you get good response?

        2. /etc/apt/sources.list file is appropriate for Kubuntu? What is the output from (in Konsole)
        Code:
        sudo dpkg --configure -a
        Code:
        sudo apt-get update
        Code:
        sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
        ?

          Ping test just kept going, but here are some of the results

            OK, Internet connection looks good.

            Try this in the Konsole:
            Code:
            sudo apt-get remove --purge sun-java6-plugin
            Then give it
            Code:
            sudo dpkg --configure -a
            again.

                Probably when you selected the sun java package, you did not notice the page where you have to accept their license. So now it's hung up. I don't recommend you fool with KPackagekit until we fix your package database.

                What was the result when you issued (in Konsole)
                Code:
                sudo apt-get remove --purge sun-java6-plugin
                ??

                    Re: Package manager crashes

                    OK, now you should be able to run
                    Code:
                    sudo dpkg --configure -a
                    and have it complete with no errors. OK?

                    If yes, then again run

                    Code:
                    sudo apt-get update
                    Code:
                    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
                    and these should complete with no errors. If package upgrades are offered in the second command, look them over and make sure they appear to be safe to accept -- they should be. If so, accept the default "Y" and let them be installed.

                    After these maneuvers are complete, and staying in the Konsole, you can
                    Code:
                    sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
                    and watch carefully for the license acceptance page. When it comes up, press "TAB" to highlight the "OK", then press "Enter" to accept the license, then let it finish installing.

                    That should fix it.
