I am running ubuntu 11.04 on vmware. I can access the internet fine with firefox but the Software Centre cant download anything and tells me to check my internet connection.

Using apt-get on the command line gives me errors like...

Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty-security/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.176 80]

Synaptic also reports similar problems.

Any ideas what is going wrong?

  • 404 Not found tells you that the server could be contacted but the server said: "not found" - so it is not a networking problem and neither one of vmware. – guntbert Jun 29 '13 at 19:30

To install updates, you need to have a supported version of Ubuntu. 11.04 is no longer supported, so you cannot update it. You need to upgrade your installation to fix this. Just start a Terminal session and type sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade to the latest version of Ubuntu.
