I am facing issues with running apt-get update and apt-get install on my system. This is after deleting squid, iptables and dansguardian. I was trying to install DansGuardian, and ran the following commands:

sudo apt-get install iptables dansguardian squid
sudo gedit /etc/squid/squid.conf 
sudo /etc/init.d/squid restart 
sudo gedit /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf 
sudo apt autoremove dansguardian 
sudo apt-get install iptables dansguardian squid
sudo gedit /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf 
sudo /etc/init.d/dansguardian start 
sudo gedit /etc/init.d/tproxy
sudo update-rc.d tproxy
sudo apt-get install iptables

For reference I followed this link: Dansguardian Content Filtering With Transparent Proxy On Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic

Due to some difficulties with preinstalled software, I tried deleting squid, iptables and dansguardian, and restarting the process. sudo apt autoremove iptables dansguardian squid

Since then, I have not been able to reinstall any of the mentioned packages.

Also, some websites are not opening.

What could be the issue?

  • Did you try what it suggested, sudo apt update and sudo apt install --fix-missing?

  • Yes I tried it. I rerouted the proxy to pass through the one set up by dansguardian, and then deleted iptables. Do you think it is possible that internet filtering is blocking access to the locations apt-get install needs? Oct 13, 2017 at 7:18
  • Please provide the output of those commands in your question, each in a code block ({} button).
