My problem was with javascript-common (I use Dedian) not being configured. My solution was to remove it and to install apache2 before installing javascript-common. It seems that javascript-common expects some configuration files to be exitent before being able to configure it.

sudo touch /etc/apache2/conf-available/javascript-common.conf

sudo apt-get install apache2

Download the javascript-common_11_all.deb package manually and instaled it with 

dpkg -i  javascript-common_11_all.deb --force-all

good luck

That message is generic. It just means that the dpkg instance called by apt/apt-get failed for some reason. It doesn’t explain why, how, or give hints how to solve it. As a diagnostic message, it is not useful.

You need to read the lines before the message (sometimes quite a number of them) to find the real error that prevents you from completing the installation.

Yeah, but how do I solve it?

There is no single way to solve it. There are so many reasons why this can happen that it’s futile to attempt to list them all in a single post. Each and every circumstance is almost unique to that package/environment.

But, there’s redemption. The fact that you see this message means that probably there is more relevant information in the lines before the message. For illustrative purposes I will use a example:

(Reading database ... 81657 files and directories currently installed.)
 Removing mongodb-10gen ...
 arg: remove
 invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/mongodb not found.
 dpkg: error processing mongodb-10gen (--remove):
  subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 100
 invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/mongodb not found.
 dpkg: error while cleaning up:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 100
 Errors were encountered while processing:
  mongodb-10gen
 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Now, to find the problem, you need to read backwards:

  • E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) doesn’t tell me anything useful. So moving on.

  • Errors were encountered while processing: mongodb-10gen just tells me what package have problems. Is useful but not enough.

  • subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 100: this tells me that the script that failed was the postinst, the one executed in post-installation. This will come handy in some situations, but not in this one.

  • dpkg: error while cleaning up: nothing useful here.

  • invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/mongodb not found. BINGO! This tells us that invoke-rc.d, a binary that controls the init script in most Debian-like system, failed. It failed because it couldn’t find the /etc/init.d/mongodb script. This is bad. We need to create it or copy from somewhere else so it starts working again. Reinstalling the package is also normally an option for file not found errors.

    In this case, reporting a bug is not necessary because is probable that we were the ones that removed the script, but if you are completely sure you didn’t touch the file (a debsums -sla should confirm it) then report a bug.

So, what exactly do you need to get help? Ideally, the complete output of the problem. It’s also helpful to include the output of sudo dpkg -C and sudo apt-get check, and the output of apt-cache policy package1 package2... where «package1 package2 …» includes all the packages with problems.

If you are encountering “sub process usr bin dpkg returned an error code 1”  while installing software on Ubuntu Linux, here is how you can fix it.

One of the common issue in Ubuntu and other Debian based distribution is the broken packages. You try to update the system or install a new package and you encounter an error like ‘Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code’.

That’s what happened to me the other day. I was trying to install a radio application in Ubuntu when it threw me this error:

The last three lines are of the utmost importance here.

polar-bookshelf
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

It tells me that the package polar-bookshelf is causing and issue. This might be crucial to how you fix this error here.

Fixing Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Fix update errors in Ubuntu Linux

Let’s try to fix this broken error package. I’ll show several methods that you can try one by one. The initial ones are easy to use and simply no-brainers.

You should try to run sudo apt update and then try to install a new package or upgrade after trying each of the methods discussed here.

Method 1: Reconfigure Package Database

The first method you can try is to reconfigure the package database. Probably the database got corrupted while installing a package. Reconfiguring often fixes the problem.

sudo dpkg --configure -a

Method 2: Use force install

If a package installation was interrupted previously, you may try to do a force install.

sudo apt-get install -f

Method 3: Try removing the troublesome package

If it’s not an issue for you, you may try to remove the package manually. Please don’t do it for Linux Kernels (packages starting with linux-).

sudo apt remove package_name

Method 4: Remove post info files of the troublesome package

This should be your last resort. You can try removing the files associated to the package in question from /var/lib/dpkg/info.

You need to know a little about basic Linux commands to figure out what’s happening and how can you use the same with your problem.

In my case, I had an issue with polar-bookshelf. So I looked for the files associated with it:

ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep -i polar-bookshelf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2324811 Aug 14 19:29 polar-bookshelf.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2822824 Aug 10 04:28 polar-bookshelf.md5sums
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root     113 Aug 10 04:28 polar-bookshelf.postinst
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root      84 Aug 10 04:28 polar-bookshelf.postrm

Now all I needed to do was to remove these files:

sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/polar-bookshelf.* /tmp

Use the sudo apt update and then you should be able to install software as usual.

Which method worked for you (if it worked)?

Если вы столкнулись с ошибкой  с «sub process usr bin dpkg returned an error code 1» при установке программного обеспечения на Ubuntu Linux, вот как вы можете это исправить.

Одной из распространенных проблем в Ubuntu и других дистрибутивах на основе Debian являются ломанные пакеты.

Вы пытаетесь обновить систему или установить новый пакет, и столкиваеиесь с такой ошибкой, как «Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code 1.

Вот что случилось на днях.

Я пытался установить радио приложение на Ubuntu, и система вернула мне эту ошибку:

Здесь важны последние три строки:

Это говорит мне, что пакет полярнаяpolar-bookshelf является причиной. Это может иметь решающее значение для устранения этой ошибки.

Решение проблемы Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Попробуем исправить этот сломанный пакет.

Я покажу вам несколько методов, которые вы можете попробовать по одному.

Они простые в использовании и просто без проблем осуществимы.

Вы должны попытаться запустить sudo apt update, а затем попытаться установить новый пакет или обновиться после каждого из описанных здесь методов.

Способ 1: переконфигурировать базу данных пакетов

Первый метод, который вы можете попробовать, – перенастроить базу данных пакетов.

Вероятно, база данных повреждена при установке пакета.

Реконфигурация часто устраняет проблему.

sudo dpkg --configure -a

Способ 2: Использовать принудительную установку

Если установка ранее прервалась, вы можете попробовать установить пакет принудительно:

sudo apt-get install -f

Способ 3. Попробуйте удалить проблемный пакет.

sudo apt remove

Способ 4. Удалите информационные файлы с информацией о проблемном пакете

Это должно быть вашим последним прибежищем.

Вы можете попробовать удалить файлы, связанные с пакетом, из /var/lib/dpkg/info.

Вам нужно немного узнать о базовых командах Linux, чтобы выяснить, что происходит, и как использовать их с вашей проблемой.

В моем случае у меня была проблема с polar-bookhelof.

Поэтому я искал файлы, связанные с ним:

ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info | grep -i polar-bookshelf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2324811 Aug 14 19:29 polar-bookshelf.list
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2822824 Aug 10 04:28 polar-bookshelf.md5sums
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root     113 Aug 10 04:28 polar-bookshelf.postinst
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root      84 Aug 10 04:28 polar-bookshelf.postrm

Теперь мне нужно удалить эти файлы:

sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/polar-bookshelf.* /tmp

Environment: Docker Container

Linux Distro: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

I also had this exact error but for when I was trying to install the Nagios Cross-Platform Agent (NCPA) within my Docker Container environment and whilst executing my custom initialize.sh bash script. Can anyone help me out on which of the daemon services within the /etc/init.d/, I need to configure? and what configuration I need to configure it to?

Thanks a lot in advance!

fi

What I would like to do is to install NCPA using the custom script I had built.

And because I wanted to keep a specific configuration, so that it wouldn’t overwrite it during the default ncpa installation, I did not use the standard apt-get or apt install ncpa parameter.

Instead I used:

apt-get -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confdef install -y ncpa

Thanks for your help in advance guys!

Kind Regards,

Doga
