Title: Error installing updates
Post by: JAG on September 24, 2017, 01:14:45 PM
Hello everyone, Im new here and this is my first post, I just installed lite 3.6 and  after installation I tried to update but I always got this error: " Install updates could not fetch the package cache information list" I"ve been using linux mint for a while but is a little heavy for my old desktop and I never had this problem, I really like linux lite but I think there's something wrong here, "This is the error log"

Go to Menu>Settings>Lite Sources and try another repository server.

This is a network issue with your pc/network. Start there.

Hi there Jerry! thanks for answer! I think my problem is solved. I don't know if it was my connection or the server, but I changed the repository server and now works fine. Thanks everybody!
