[Bug 257639] Re: E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report.
@Martin, Steve: This is just a workaround. The problem is that there is a locking issue when both update-manager and packagekit try to rebuild the binary cache. The problem is that PK sends a signal right after any apt-get update run. The PK daemon rebuilds its binary cache at (roughly) the same time as e.g. synaptic (or update-manager). The upload works around this until the real lock issue if found. We have quite a few dups of this and the risk is low. I'm preparing a different fix now. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Here is a more advanced version. But I think for jaunty-updates we should just go with the workaround and understand the problem better for karmic.

I've experienced the same error in Jaunty Beta (both an upgrade from Intrepid and a fresh install). Removing packagekit gets rid of the error. The error would present using Update Manager to check for updates, or when reloading Synaptic - (after reloading Synaptic and clicking Close on the error window Synaptic would also close).

Try to do the same (if you don't have it : wget-install gparted) 1) run gParted 2) unmount your Linux partition 3) open the menu Partition - Check 4) when finished (normally you'll be advised of successful operation) remount your partition 5) better reboot and everything should be ok, if not re-install your default sources list.

I managed to re-create the error, although today it took me a few tries. I realized that perhaps I'm the cause of the problem. Specifically, the error occurs after the following steps: 1) In Software Sources, enable a new source (e.g. ppa.launchpad development package), close, and reload. 2) Launch update manager (either manually or automatically) --- new updates appear 3) Launch Software Sources again while update manager is open, but before installing the updates, disable the same source, close and reload 4) Error pops up. Here is the CLI output: :~$ apt-config dump | grep Update APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists 1; APT::Update ; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success ; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success touch /var/lib/apt/periodic/update-success-stamp 2/dev/null || true; APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success:: /usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.PackageKit --type=method_call /org/freedesktop/PackageKit org.freedesktop.PackageKit.StateHasChanged string:'cache-update'; :~$ dpkg -l | grep packagekit ii gstreamer0.10-packagekit 0.3.6-0ubuntu4 GStreamer plugin to install codecs using Pac ii libpackagekit80.3.6-0ubuntu4 Library for accessing PackageKit ii packagekit0.3.6-0ubuntu4 provides a software installation daemon ii packagekit-backend-apt0.3.6-0ubuntu4 APT backend for packagekit If the error occurs again in a different situation, I will be sure to note why. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I get this same message almost every time I use Software Sources in the following scenario: After adding a new source, or removing a source, I then reload. All the package information seems to download, but then then this error pops up. I then switch to terminal and do sudo apt-get update and everything appears fine. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I keep getting this in update manager whenever there are new updates. It is resolved by running sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a in terminal. But the error msg keeps popping up from time to time. Everything seems to work, however, despite this message (the updates get installed). Using ubuntu 8.10 final. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I experienced this identical problem this morning while the update manager ran. Still got updates OK and no errors in apt when I run update, upgrade or -f install. All seems to be working properly otherwise (except for ongoing CD eject problem). -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well, I replied to this bug report before but don't see my response now. Anyway I'm pretty sure it's a Medibuntu thing!

I can't confirm this. I use ubuntu 8.10 beta (no fresh installation but an updated Hardy) and hat the same message a few times now. Update manager did his work anyway... -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For me it happens in synaptic when I do a reload. But when I restart synaptic I see the packages which need to be updated and can install them without problems. This started to happen a 1-2 weeks ago. $ dpkg-query -W synaptic synaptic0.62.1ubuntu9 I haven't seen any problems yet, when doing an apt-get update. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry for delay, I forgot to subscribe this bug. No, it won't happen always. As far as I have noticed it happens when there is new updates available, but not every time even in that case. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for additional information. Does this always happen when you start update-manager? Or only when you try to install updates? Or only sometimes? ** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Michael Vogt (mvo) -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For me, update-manager produces that error message when I run it manually. -- E: The package cache file is corrupted E: _cache-open() failed, please report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
