dpkg: error: unable to read filedescriptor flags for : Bad file descriptor
Thanks to the draft option on the forum i was able to keep the draft open after the computer froze after trying to install the update yet again. I tried to skip the prev update for the same reason. I brought this up in another post and i was shut down by a mod, saying it was not related…while the problem is similar which i brought it up nothing was resolved.
The server is functional, operating as intended, and also has remote access without issues. The issue is using the commands on TERMINAL to install the oldschool way and using the gdebi installer ( which makes it similar to installing an .exe in windows ). The error is the one that appears at the beginning of the post.
Every attempt is met with a crash either from the kernel or the actual window. The gdebi window also does not close and stays on top of other windows causing it to be extremely annoying to work around with.
I tried installing this update on a VM machine and the result is the same.
Im creating a new post with hopes of not getitng smirky remarks from a mod that’s in the wrong place or someone telling me that they are different from this OS or the Next.
Hopefully the response is more helpful than those comments mentioned above like before.
Any thoughts on how to fix it?
note: even on the VM it was a fresh install of Ubuntu and tried ubuntu server hoping it was an OS issue, and it gave me the same error back to back.
Ty Chuck. I’m about to hit the rack right now but any findings you get I will definitely try to implement any fix once you let me know. I’m not an expert but I can definitely follow your lead to the best of my ability.
thank you Chuck you are a gentleman and a scholar!
I tried it on the laptop i got from work, MIL computers are trash but it worked there.
When i got home it i did a step by step follow up from the code you submitted and everything worked successfully.
From what i could tell there is a possibility that the Gdebi wasn’t launching as SUDO… possibly. But hey, it worked like a charm using TERMINAL so thank you very much for your assistance with this.
