nfs-kernel-server installation : file does not exist
- by Stuti Rastogi
I am extremely new to Ubuntu and need to work on EdX platform. I need to install the NFS Client on Ubuntu 12.04 for the same. I used the following
stuti@stuti:/$ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
However this gives me an error as follows:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
nfs-common
The following NEW packages will be installed:
nfs-common nfs-kernel-server
0 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

After this operation, 1,222 kB of additional disk space will be used.

I have tried
sudo apt-get autoremove nfs-kernel-server
sudo apt-get autoremove nfs-common
After these, I tried to install but I keep getting the same error. apt-get update or upgrade also do not help and give the same error.
I am clueless as to where can I find this missing file as stated in the output. I tried to google about this problem but none of the solutions I came across have helped or I have not been able to understand some of them.
Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time and attention.
