Ubuntu 16.04 LTS not getting Updated & Upgraded through Terminal, S.U or S.P.M.
Friends,
When I apply a command “sudo apt-get update” it gives output as under:
navin@linux:~$ sudo apt-get update
[sudo] password for navin:
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/
E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
navin@linux:~$
And when I apply a command “sudo apt-get upgrade” it gives output as under:
navin@linux:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
navin@linux:~$
Also “Software Updater” (S.U)and “Synaptic Package Manager” (S.P.M.) not working.
Please ,help me in resolving this issue by providing appropriate command lines.
