    error while installing

    Hi to all,
    when I try to install any packages, I obtain this error:

    Extracting templates from packages: 100%
    Preconfiguring packages ...
    (Reading database ... 61996 files and directories currently installed.)

    root@Syslog-VMWare-SysServ:~# sudo dpkg -i --configure -a
    dpkg: error: conflicting actions (--configure) and -i (--install)


    Any help would be very appreciated, I've been searching information about this issue for hours.
    Thnx
    Carmen

    Re: error while installing

    I think your interim try for that mixed commands together as one... It told you that in the error

    You tried
    Code:
    root@Syslog-VMWare-SysServ:~# sudo dpkg -i --configure -a
    dpkg: error: conflicting actions (--configure) and -i (--install)
    That would be either of these
    Code:
    sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.35-0ubuntu3.6_amd64.deb
    ## But more correctly, since it was interupted
    sudo dpkg --configure -a
    What do either of those return? And please use CODE Tags to post commands or output.

    Yes, that was another error, I am trying to delete those 3 last lines but I am not able to.
    The real error is in the upper lines, please review

    Thanks
