I am trying to run the command

apt update -y && apt install iptables-persistent

and always an error returns.

I connected to three different servers one in Greece, one in Austria, one in USA and there is always the same error.

The error says

Failed to fetch http://mirror……..
Temporary failure resolving ‘mirror…….
Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with –fix-missing?

Should I try an other day?

    Please update the question with full commands and errors. – Soren A May 16 '22 at 12:46
  • Run apt update -y and apt install iptables-persistent separately. Please [edit] your question, copy&paste the command and the full output/error message to your question and format it as a code block, e.g. by using the {} tool of the editor field. – Bodo May 16 '22 at 12:57

    You could read the whole messages, check to see if the archive mirrors being used have any issues currently reported, or are reported as being up-to-date. We cannot read partial messages, so you'll need to look up that detail yourself. – guiverc May 16 '22 at 12:57
  • I executed the two commands separately but the errors remain.

    May I ask. How can I redirect the screen and keyboard and still been able to see the messages on screen and type keys?

  • I'm not sure what you're asking for in the last comment; but I gather it's tee. Check out the manual for tee to see if it's what you're after (ie. man tee). eg. If you wanted to see the results of ls & save a copy in the file blah, you'd use ls | tee blah – guiverc May 17 '22 at 02:59
