Question

I am running Ubuntu 16.04 on my windows pc using Oracle VirtualBox.

I've recently tried installing Octave on my Ubuntu platform, but after a few steps it is showing some error saying unable to fetch archives.

What should I do? I've posted the image here.

You should run this commands with root privilages, for this purpose you can run these commands with sudo.

sudo apt update
sudo apt --fix-missing install
sudo apt install octave
