Problem in update manager during signature verification

Asked by Susetyo Nugroho

Hi.., i need some help

i got these messages after i run sudo apt-get update :

"Reading package lists... Done
W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.GPG error: http://id.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <email address hidden>

W: Failed to fetch http://id.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty-updates/Release

W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems"

i never change any signatures since my first jaunty installation, the invalid signature always works before.
what should i do to fix this problem..?

Regards..

Perhaps the mirror you are using is out of sync. Under the Administration -> Software Sources see what the value of the "Download From" drop down list is. Mine is Server for Canada and it works ok. I have also had success with Main Server.

If you are still having trouble open Administration -> Synaptec Package Manager and push Reload. See if that helps.

This is most likely a transient problem on the server. Your configuration should be fine.

Ok, lets check your signatures.

Go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources -> Authentication

On my computer I have two signatures: 437D05B5 and FBB75451. What do you have?

A side note, is your clock set correctly?

I do have same signature on my laptop, also date and clock set correctly based on my timezone.
Is it something wrong or bad setting in my system..?

Please simple try to clean a bit your system... and then retry...

Open a Terminal from the menu Applications->Accessories->Terminal

Tip: right click with mouse on the terminal title caption and select the item "Always on Top" doing this you will force the terminal window to stay on top of the other windows and you will find very easy to copy single row from this web page into the terminal...
Something more about using the terminal https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal

Then type or better copy and paste a row a time then press enter:
(Tip: select the single row to copy then right click into the terminal and to quick paste click with middle button of mouse )

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get --fix-missing install
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoremove

then please reboot your system, type

sudo reboot

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

Hope this helps

Can you post the contents of /etc/apt.d ?

In particular what do you have in /etc/apt.d/sources.list and /etc/apt.d/sources.list.d/?
