I get some errors when trying to update the package list with sudo apt-get update command, specifically the error messages are as follows:

  • Just got a new VPS running Ubuntu 11.04 and tried to update it. I got this error. I get the same error whenever using apt-get login as: root root@199.193.248.80's.
  • Some index files failed to download - FIX This usually means that you have repositories activated that don't exist anymore, at least on the mirror you are using. Please post the complete output of the update command and the content of your /etc/apt/sources.list file.

You will need to import the correct GPG keys for each repository. So, for each missing key, run this command:

In your case, you are missing the keys for A040830F7FAC5991, 40976EAF437D05B5 and 16126D3A3E5C1192, you can get all three by running: Propeller arena: aviation battle championship iso download.

After running this command, try sudo apt-get update again and it should work perfectly well.

Update, I was assuming that reimporting the keys would fix them, it looks like that did not work. Try this instead (source):
