I have a Docker container with a brand new install of Ubuntu 16.04, I'm unable to install openssh-server successfully. I'm able to install openssh-client successfully but when attempting apt-get install -y --fix-missing openssh-server I get the following error...

E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/n/ncurses/ncurses-term_6.0+20160213-1ubuntu1_all.deb Bad header line Bad header data [IP: 91.189.88.174 80]

I've tried apt-get clean and apt-get update prior to installing this. I've run out of options on googling things, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Update:

I notice that the URL it's attempting to fetch the file from is http://archive.ubuntu.com instead of us.archive.ubuntu.com why is this?

I had taken down my old docker container so I was setting up a new one to get the results and this time it installed without a hitch... considering this resolved. If it happens again I'll post more details.
