I am trying to install mongodb using these instructions.

I get to the step where you do sudo apt-get update and most of this runs just fine until I get the error as follows.

E: GPG error: http://downlaods-distro.mongodb.org dist InRelease: 
 Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NODATA' (does the network require authentication?)

This means I can't continue with the installation. Is there any way I can fix this? I am completely lost.

First off, you are better off following the instructions here - the package names have now been updated to reflect the company name change from 10gen to MongoDB:

http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/

Then, assuming you copied and pasted the error you are getting, you have a typo in your URL: downlaods-distro.mongodb.org should be downloads-distro.mongodb.org - you have swapped the o and a.

I had a problem like that for 2 days. I just resolved it when I change my VM LAN configuration on Virtual Box from NAT to BRIDGE.

Virtual Box LAN Configuration

It my be not your problem, but after try a lot of things that I found in internet, that was my solution. And how any of those sites told me that, I had post it here.

Thanks
