I'm trying to install tomcat7 on ubuntu 14.04 64bit using the following command 

sudo apt-get install tomcat7

the required libs can't be downloaded with the following error 

Err http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main openjdk-7-jre-headless amd64 7u65-2.5.1-4ubuntu1~0.14.04.2

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

I tried the sugggested --fix-missing but still getting the same error, what can I do to solve it?

  • for me it works, I have the same setup. 14.04 (64bit) – Private Sep 22 '14 at 12:45
  • http://packages.ubuntu.com/ says it should be there, please try to install for example tomcat7-admin , just for a try, does he find the package? – Private Sep 22 '14 at 12:48
  • @Private it didn't find the package, I think it has some thing to do with me being in Syria as the addresses in error messages are all Syria-specific – Basil Mostafa Sep 22 '14 at 12:51

  • did you try with sudo apt-get update or try with sudo apt-get --fix-missing? – αғsнιη Sep 22 '14 at 13:06

apt tries to download an outdated version, currently this is the most recent version found there: 

openjdk-7-jre-headless_7u65-2.5.2-3~14.04_amd64.deb

You need to run apt-get update.
