Good day,
NOTE: I'm running Ubuntu 20.10 on VM Box
I get the following error: apt-get update fails to fetch files, “Temporary failure resolving …” error.
I tried literally every "fix" I can per this user group and others on the net. I still have the same error.
help please;
This issue is because Apt is unable to connect to the website you listed as the upstream Apt repository that you are installing packages from. This issue is on your end, unless the upstream you are using is having a REALLY bad day.
Does the VM have internet access? If you run "ping google.com", what do you get?
If there is internet, check your /etc/apt/sources.list file, to ensure that the internet domains named as sources are valid. See man sources.list for details on the format, but the second word (after 'deb') must be a valid URL.
You need to go to the machine settings. Go to the NETWORK option, and select the option Bridged. Then hit the Advanced dropdown and select Allow All in the dropdown Promiscuous.
I had this same problem and doing what I said above solved it.
