View Full Version : [ubuntu] [SOLVED] Synaptic fails: "403 forbidden"

Hi, in the last 24 hours I can't use Synaptic. If I attempt to install wine (for example), I obtain:

W: Falló al obtener http://es.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/w/wine/wine_1.0.0-1ubuntu4~hardy1_i386.deb
403 Forbidden
and similary with every package I try to install. Otherwise I'm connected to the internet; firefox and the like work. It happens to me with 3 different computers, so I think is either related to my connection or to the server.

¿Is someone running into the same problem?
¿Perhaps the server is down?
¿Does someone know how change the mirror where synaptic looks for apps?

Thanks in advance.

Go to System-->Administration-->Software Sources enter your password and change download from to another server.

Oh, It was in front of my nose all the time !! Perhaps I forgot to put on my brain yesterday :-D

I changed the server and worked ok. I hope the spanish servers to be up soon.
Many thanks, guys.
