Hi, I get this error message trying to update webmin-virtual-server to 3.80 version. The issue was on Debian Lenny amd64. For Lenny i386 the update was OK.

aptitude update ; aptitude dist-upgrade

Get:1 http://software.virtualmin.com virtualmin-universal/main webmin-virtual-server 3.80 [3482kB]

E: Failed to fetch http://xxxxx:xxxxx@software.virtualmin.com/debian/dists/virtualmin-universal/main/binary-amd64/webmin-virtual-server_3.80_all.deb: Size mismatch
Status: 
Closed (fixed)

Snap, I too have the exact same issue and server being Debian Lenny amd64.

Try again?

I'm not entirely sure what would cause this, but I've regenerated the meta-data, which may or may not correct the problem.

Hi Joe, the issue remains. I'm trying from another server with same error message.

If I am not wrong, the package webmin-virtual-server_3.80_all.deb is the same for both architectures (i386 and amd64). But I accessed with my browser to both directories on the repository and see that the size differs:

http://software.virtualmin.com/debian/dists/virtualmin-universal/main/binary-amd64/
webmin-virtual-server_3.80_all.deb              11-Aug-2010 17:11  2.2M  http://software.virtualmin.com/debian/dists/virtualmin-universal/main/binary-i386/
webmin-virtual-server_3.80_all.deb              11-Aug-2010 17:11  3.3M 

In message from aptitude, the deb file downloaded is smaller than the size that announces the repository (2294kB and 3482kB)

Get:1 http://software.virtualmin.com virtualmin-universal/main webmin-virtual-server 3.80 [3482kB]
Fetched 2294kB in 3s (635kB/s)                 
E: Failed to fetch http://USER:PASSWORD@software.virtualmin.com/debian/dists/virtualmin-universal/main/binary-amd64/webmin-virtual-server_3.80_all.deb: Size mismatch

May be a damaged or incomplete file?

best regards, Santi

Please give it another try now .. you should be able to just run :

apt-get update
apt-get install webmin-virtual-server
