sudo apt-get update

After inputting that command, the following occurs:

Reading package lists... Done

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

For all the modules, all of them say IGN and it repeats over and over with the same modules attempted to be downloaded until a formal error occurs. "Temporary failure resolving" . For context, I have recently downloaded Ubuntu to test C on it via downloading GCC, but when I attempt to download gcc, it's more modules so the same error as previously stated occurs. If I am right and essentially no modules have been downloaded due to the ignore, is there a work-around/fix for this specific issue?

sudo apt-get install gcc
ping -c3 www.ubuntu.com

  • Were you actually connected to the internet at the time? Please post: ping -c3 www.ubuntu.com and: ping -c3 8.8.8.8 Welcome to Ask Ubuntu. – chili555 Feb 01 '23 at 21:25
  • @chii555 I attached the code-fences to my actual post because I think you may be right. My connection to Ubuntu is faulty which results in constant "IGN's", but I am connected to the Internet. – WickedAndrew1 Feb 01 '23 at 22:19
  • Please add: ls -al /etc/resolv.conf We're getting closer. – chili555 Feb 01 '23 at 22:35
  • @chili555 The weirdest thing is when I sudo nano /etc/resolve.conf it shows my name server, but doesn't let me restart. – WickedAndrew1 Feb 01 '23 at 23:17
  • Sorry, I didn't know this is a WSL installation. I know nothing about WSL. – chili555 Feb 02 '23 at 00:31
