Errors Occur When Loading Mirrored Repositories on Air-Gapped Systems#

Issue#

When you run the apt update command to load mirrored repositories on an air-gapped system, the following error messages appear:

File not found - /media/repository/mirror/security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy-security/main/cnf/Commands-amd64 (2: No such file or directory)

Failed to fetch file:/media/repository/mirror/security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy-security/main/cnf/Commands-amd64  File not found - /media/repository/mirror/security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy-security/main/cnf/Commands-amd64 (2: No such file or directory)

Explanation#

This issue occurs because a fix for the apt-mirror package, which is available in Ubuntu 23.10, has yet to be implemented in the Ubuntu 22.04 repositories. If you are using an apt-mirror package

  • Version later than 0.5.4-1: Contact NVIDIA Enterprise Services by filing a support case.

  • Version 0.5.4-1: Use the following workaround to mirror the repositories.

You can run the following command to determine the version of your apt-mirror package:

$ dpkg -l | grep apt-mirror

ii  apt-mirror                  0.5.4-1               all             APT sources mirroring tool
