[ubuntu] Update Manager problem topic






Folks,

I am still running 12.04.4 LTS. I downloaded xubuntu 14.04.1 iso and from it created a disk. However, since downloading xubuntu, there appears to be a problem with Update Manager.

Initially, when I select to download the updates a message displays telling me to place the xubuntu disk into my CD slot. When I've done this, I select the dialog button 'Continue' but all that happens is the same message displays. I then select the Cancel button and the updates seem download.

When I try to install them under Update Manager, I get the following message:

Failed to download package files
Check your internet connection
Clicking the Details down arrow gives the following:
Filed to fetch cdrom:[Xubuntu 14.04 LTS _Trusty Tahr_ - Release amd64 (20140416.2)]/pool/main/f/fakeroot/fakeroot_1.20-3ubuntu2_amd64.deb Unable to stat the mount point /media/cdrom/ - stat (2: No such file or directory)
Failed to fetch cdrom:[Xubuntu 14.04 LTS _Trusty Tahr_ - Release amd64 (20140416.2)]/pool/main/f/fakeroot/libfakeroot_1.20-3ubuntu2_amd64.deb File not found

My internet connection is working perfectly, so that isn't the problem.

On reopening the Update Manager, the updates are still shown, and the message:
7 updates hve been selected. The updates have already been downloaded, but not installed.

Can anyone tell me what is causing the problem, any help gratefully accepted.

Regards,
Bob
