I tried to install DHCP server on my Ubuntu Server 18.04, but it failed.



sudo apt install isc-dhcp-server



The following messages were shown after the trial:



E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?



As you may assume, I've already set a static IP address on 50-cloud-init.yaml file.
My settings are as follows:



This file is generated from information provided by
the datasource. Changes to it will not persist across an instance.
To disable cloud-init's network configuration capabilities, write a file
/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg with the following:
network: {config: disabled}

network:
ethernets:
enp0s3:
addresses: [192.168.0.101/24]
gateway4: 192.168.1.1
nameservers:
addresses: [192.168.1.1,8.8.8.8]
dhcp4: no
version: 2


And of course, I made the above changes take effect by running the following command:
sudo netplan apply



SI there any solution you can provide?
Please advise!

  • The warning you get has nothing to do with your network configuration. It just says that you are trying to install two packages at the same time, or you have one package manager open while doing apt in a terminal. If closing open package managers doesn't help, you can always remove the lock file the hard way with sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend.

  • @Jos Thank you for your comment. As you have suggested, I removed lock-frontend file, but now it showd another error message that goes as follows: E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

  • That message is a summary of previous messages that tell you which archives couldn't be fetched, and why not. From this summary, I can't tell what went wrong.
