Package: apt-cacher Version: 1.5.3 Severity: normal This is an important problem for me, but seemingly idiosyncratic.
Earlier today aptitude update failed with Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/testing/Release.gpg Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/unstable/Release.gpg Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/testing/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/testing/contrib/binary-i386/Packages.gz Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/testing/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.gz Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/unstable/main/source/Sources.gz Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/unstable/contrib/source/Sources.gz Connection failed Failed to fetch http://localhost:3142/linux.csua.berkeley.edu/debian/dists/unstable/non-free/source/Sources.gz Connection failed The subsequent apt-get dist-upgrade failed with WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! libc6-pic libc6-dev libc6-dbg libc6 grace python-netcdf libnetcdf3 <snip> E: There are problems and -y was used without --force-yes and nothing happened. The apt-cacher error log seems to indicate timeouts contacting the original archive, and I suspected I might have caught it during an update. However, the timeouts occur hours later, and I'm not sure the error code 500 indicates a timeout in this case. In earlier cases I see a several minute delay between the request and the timeout; apparently not in the latest time (though it's possible the requests are overlapped). Also, the errors recurred about 6 hours later when the daily cleanup job ran. I suspect the same underlying cause may be at work here as in my report 354428, but the symptoms differ. I'm getting different error messages, and the Packages.bz2 files seem to be OK. I had debugging enabled from the previous incident. Here's a piece of the error log; I'll send the full thing offlist.
