Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
Attempt to upgrade Hardy Heron 8.04(2.6.24.21.43 through downloading Ibis 8.10 (gdu) failed at install stage. Package update-manager 1:0.93.32. Error Mesaage: "System Error in cache.commit(): ESub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned error code (1) "
I have been using Ubuntu Studio as my desktop. During the downloading phase I received the following Error Message: "An error occured while loading or saving configiuartion for front end. Some of your configuration settings may not work properly. Details: Failed to contact configuration sever; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networks foe ORBIT, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://
Details: 1. failed to get connection to session. Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-
During the installation phase and prior to the package manager error another error message informed me it couldn't do whatever it needed to to with the Ubuntu Studio Menu.
I expected to download and install 8.10 with no trouble, as I had done with 8,04. I hoped that8.10 would then be able to recognise and mount my USB connected external backup drive, something Gutsy was able to do but not Heron.
Last night I downloaded the package and this morning I left it to install. On checking at lunchtime I was horrified to find that my previous configurations hed been removed before the installation gave up the ghost.
Is there anything I can do to recover my previous set up and extremely precious data?
Thanking you in anticipation but little hope.
