[SOLVED]LXDE pacman errors

Hi,
Sorry new to arch linux / these forums, cant find anyting about the errors I am having. 
I'm getting some errors in pacman whilst trying to install LXDE.  I'm installing it in a fresh arch linux install in VirtualBox, it is fully up to date.
It can not retrieve two gtk packages files, in particular, gtk2-2.24.8-1x86-64.pkg.tar.xz, gtk-update-icon-cache-2.24.8-1x86-64.pkg.tar.xz
And the pacman exits as it has not for all the packages.
My mirrors are:
* mirror.lividpenguin.com
* archlinux.positive-internet.com
My pacman.conf has [core] [extra] [community] enabled.
A little bit stuck, anyone else having / have these issues or can anyone point me in the right direction to solve?
Thanks,
Jon

Those packages arrived  23: 14 on 16th, when did you last try a pacman -Suy? You could download them manually then "pacman -U" the package.

  • [SOLVED] Pacman error when installing Arch from installation cd

    Hey I''ve been checking the wiki, forum and even google and I've found some responses but they don't seem to apply to my problem and I just need a little help.
    I'm at the 4th step "Select Packages" and when I select it I get "Pacman preparation failed!  Check /dev/tty7 for errors"
    the error on tty7 is "pacman:  error while loading shared libraries:  /usr/lib/libalpm.so.4:  cannot read file data:  Input/output error"
    I apologize if this is an easy fix but its been almost a year since I've used arch and I'm a bit spoiled with ubuntu.
    ****The cd was outdated. Burning a new copy fixed it*****

    I'm afraid it might be too old.  I'm going to try to burn a new copy tomorrow when I can borrow a friends computer.  I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something real simple before I gave up.

  • Pacman error loading libalpm.so.6

    Hi, my Arch installation worked flawlessy for 6 months, yesterday everything stuck while doing yaourt -Syu, rebooted after an 1 of waiting and retried, asked me te update pacman but it stucked again and now I can't use pacman anymore, every pacman command I try to use I get:
    pacman: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    Any advice?

    Downloading the package from a mirror (using a browser), and manually extracting it should solve the issue. Be sure to check afterwards that the version pacman thinks it is is actually the version you have "installed".
    EDIT: Be sure to back up your pacman.conf if you just overwrite everything.

  • [SOLVED] Did pacman -Syu and now gdm, gnome, and pacman won't work

    Hi everyone, I did a search for my problem, but cannot find the solution. Basically, I updated my computer this morning and as soon as the packages got installed my computer crashed. I am using another computer right now. These were the packages that were upgraded: dbus-core, bluez, dbus, gsfonts, libcups, libgdiplus, mono, openssl.
    So after I installed the packages, my screen went black with some error message (don't remember what it is now. I believe it was something about GDM not working.) So I rebooted and "rpcbind" and "File Alteration Monitor" failed. Then I got a bunch of Gdm error messages with "gdm-binary[46081]: WARNING: GdmLocalDisplayFactory: maximum number of X display failures reached: check X server log for errors"  as the last message. I don't know how to check the X server log for errors so I logged in and tried pacman -Syu again. I got this error "pacman: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8: invalid ELF header." I also tried startx and gnome-session , but they both failed to work as well. It seems like I'm having a graphics error. I don't know what to do now. Any help would be appreciated.

    Eivuwan wrote:Hi everyone. After some thinking, I realized that as attached as I am to Arch, I do not have as much free time as I did in the past to tinker with it. So I manually mounted my IPod and copied everything in my home folder to it. Then I installed Ubuntu. Maybe I'll come back to Arch one day, but for now, farewell. Thanks for all your help.
    Wise decision -- Ubuntu is very stable (we used it extensively in my last place of business; I'm now retired). I've gone a different route, since I prefer to start small, build the environment I want and nothing more (which was my reason for choosing Arch). My preferred environment is pretty minimal -- no desktop system (no Gnome or KDE), just a window manager (dwm) and the apps I need. I did a test install in the last day or so and learned enough about Slackware (I first used it in the early 90s when it was pretty much the only Linux distribution) to convince myself that it will work for me. It's more of a pain to get the apps installed than Arch, certainly, but once you know how to do it and where to find them, it's not really a problem. But my objective is the same as yours -- get away from Arch's rolling releases. Again, as an old hand at both individual development and managing large software projects, what Arch is trying to do is difficult. Because the various components of the system are updated more or less continuously, it's impossible to thoroughly test the whole thing every time it changes. So on any particular day, you are likely to see problems, as happened to you, me, and other folks who have started threads in this category. And sometimes the problems are so severe you end up with a non-functioning system, as happened to both of us.
    I would hope that, in the future, the powers-that-be at Arch would consider periodic, thoroughly tested releases, say every 6 months like Ubuntu and OpenBSD. The fundamental machinery of Arch is excellent (pacman, etc.), installation is easy, the documentation is adequate (I'm not as impressed by the wiki as others seem to be -- see the OpenBSD or FreeBSD documentation; what's available for Slackware is also very good). But I think there are tremendous quality hazards in the rolling release methodology, and forcing it on Arch's users is a bad idea, I think. It can be optional, for the adventurous. This is exactly how the OpenBSD people operate. There's a release every 6 months that is invariably rock solid. If they find problems after the release, they will make changes on a STABLE cvs branch. But you can also, if you choose, run what is on the cvs trunk, which they designate CURRENT, if you are so inclined and willing to take the chance on less thoroughly tested code. This is more or less equivalent to Arch now. I'm suggesting that Arch consider adding a STABLE version.

  • How to solve Audition CS6 error "The amount of audio to burn will not fit on the CD........."?

    I have a brand new PC that is MORE than adequate. I have once succeeded in burning a CD after learning all about time tracks and merging them. (made a few with only ONE track)
    Two things:
    1) I find that I must add a CD marker at the end of the WAV because Audition CS6 erases whatever is the last CD marker I've made. Very frustrating but now I know I have to do this but I have no idea WHY!!
    2) Right now I have a WAV that is just over 1 hour and 3 minutes with a total of 637.74MB of info. When I try to export/burn a CD, I get an error message stating "The amount of audio to burn will not fit.......".  I am using TDK 700MB blanks with a Pioneer Blu-ray burner.
    Obviously it will fit.
    What am I doing wrong, all of a sudden?

    Hey ryclark,
    Thanks for responding. Something else is going on here.....
    Here's what I re-replied to our friend...
    Thanks for the response.
    When I built this computer last Nov/Dec, it was built with the second 
    fastest Intel 7i, quad-core chipset on an 64-bit ASUS motherboard. It's  running
    Win 7 Pro. It has a 500GB SSD "C" drive with another 14 TB of true hard 
    drive space. It is set up with 64 bit. I had been using Audition CS3 for  many
    years and even go back to it's origin: Cool Edit and Cool Edit Pro. My 
    learning curve was minimal, sans the CD burning, which I used other software
    for  which is now antiquated, so I need Audition for this. Between this and 
    IZotope 3 I've repaired and improved many a recording. All-in-all extremely 
    useful software.
    As for the idea "to burn it anyway", well the error message comes up and 
    that's it - if I "X" out of that message and try to burn again the message
    comes  back  - so Audition will not let me. It is convinced that this file is 
    longer than it really is, but only when I add track  marks to it!
    There are only 11 tracks.
    I was able to burn a CD of this same file but without all the track marks, 
    so the same exact file length/size will burn, only as the one track.
    I've also succeeded in burning other WAV's , both greater and smaller, with
    and without multiple track marks, without issue. Of course all with less 
    than the CD's max. capacity.
    This problem seems to be with this one file. I've even  re-made/re-recorded
    the file from scratch with no change. There's something else  going on here
    that I can't put my finger on. (I am "recording" LP's and making  personal
    CDs of them)
    Also, only from time to time, I have another error after burning a CD that 
    states it could not verify the CD. For this I assume it is the blank rather
    than AA? The first might burn without issue and with the second burn I 
    get the error. It is near the end of a stack of blanks, so.....
    As for the need to "mark the end" of the file makes a lot of sense but of 
    all the other CD track-marking software I've used, none needed one to do
    this,  but this IS Adobe after all.
    You'd think there might be a smidge of intuitiveness with Adobe, but maybe 
    not.

  • How to solve the 404 error

    Hi,
    How to catch or solve the 404 error in application.
    Some time we are giving some file name but that file is not avialable at that time it will give 404 error. how to avoid this error.
    If 404 error comes i want call some other file. Is it posible.
    Thanks Advance.

    Yes, this is because IE 5.5 (?) and higher have this wacky "Show friendly HTTP error messages" setting. You can disable this by going to tools -> internet options -> advanced and unchecking "Show friendly HTTP error messages". However as the default IE setting has "Show friendly HTTP error messages" enabled this isn't a good solution.
    I believe that if your error page is less than a certain size (in bytes) then IE defaults to it's own error page when "Show friendly HTTP error messages" are enabled. This size is something like 512 bytes or fewer in length.
    So basically try making your error page larger (more than 512 bytes in size) and see if that works.

  • "Error 16" solution doesn't solve problem, same error message pops up.  Further steps?

    Steps followed: all Adobe products (CS6 Suite and CC) have been removed (w/uninstaller and manual Library cleanup) and reinstalled (from discs and downloads); permissions corrected as per KB note on Error 16, to no change. This occurred after updating Mac OS to 10.9x. The OS was then reinstalled, new admin & standard users created (MacPro hardware passes all tests). "Error 16" permission solution performed at every stage to no change in error generation. Adobe Reader, Lightroom 4, and CS6Bridge do launch, but Acrobat Professional, Photoshop (13, CS6), and CC Photoshop stop launch w/error 16.  Stumped!

    Thanks for the suggestion, Gene, but it had no affect on the ³error 16²
    situation, I¹m afraid.  I think I¹m going to have to start with a new drive
    and import/update until I find the source of this issue.

  • Pacman Error: No such file or directory, please help

    This morning I decided to make a package using the ABS and I noticed this error when executing Pacman.
    error: /var/lib/pacman/local/pacman-2.9.8-1/desc: No such file or directory
    Consequently, the custom package (Gaim Beta 4) kept complaining about dependancies, when I knew those packages were installed in the system. I did some searching around and it appeared that my local database may be currupted? At any rate, one of the posters suggested to forcefully reinstall the offending package, which I did. Upon doing so, it appeared that I had found a solution. However, after installing another package, the error appeared again. Repeating the process resolves the error, but only once before it occurs again.
    Upon further searching, another poster suggested that I should remove the offending directory, and then reinstall the package. When I attempt to remove the directory, I get a kernel panic and my entire system freezes. Since there is so much output, I've take a photo of the error (X just freezes).
    I apologise for the dodgy flash, but you can see the output. If anyone could offer any suggestions/assistance, I'd appreciate it.
    Cheers,
    Tate
    EDIT: If it helps, I'm using the latest 2.6.18 stock Arch Kernel and LVM2 with ReiserFS.

    try this:
    cd /var/lib/pacman/local
    mv pacman-2.9.8-1 pacman-2.9.8-1.old
    pacman -Sf pacman
    verify /var/lib/pacman/local/pacman-2.9.8-1 folder exists
    verify that following files are in folder:  depends, desc, files, install
    verify pacman -Syu works
    rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/local/pacman-2.9.8-1.old

    how to solve time machine error-1

    I checked the pondini fixes and ended up doing the following - in case this could help someone else with OSX Lion and Time Capsule... http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    First, I downloaded and used Airport Utility 5.6 instead of 6.1 - BTW, I had to attempt download and installation THREE times before the program actually installed.  Be persistant.
    Pondini #5: It's possible some names (of all things!) may be a problem.    See item C9.  I had to re-name my Mac, Time Capsule, network, etc... to remove all apostrophes and spaces.
    Pondini #7:  If you have WD SmartWare installed on Lion, it's not compatible, per RoaringApps, and there are reports it can cause this problem as well.   Use Western Digital's uninstaller, or delete the app from /Applications and the files com.wdc.WDDMservice.plist and com.wdc.WDSmartWareServer.plist from /Library/LaunchDaemons.   There may also be a file in Library/Application Support.
    I then had to shut down computer, unplug Time Capsule, unplug modem; plug everything in again, then reboot computer; then had to go to Apple- System Preferences- Network- and reselect my Time Capsule to connect to WiFi again.
    Then opened Time Machine preferences again and attempted back up - it worked!

    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
    Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
