Re: Debian php5 (Can't get download when doing apt-update)

Thanks for responding!  I need help.

- Yes, I have Internet access and behind a firewall (any known ports that should be open?)

- I pinged Yahoo.com

- sources.list

# deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib

# deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all

Does your internet work?
ping yahoo.com

for example...

If so, what's in your sources.list file?
cat /etc/apt/sources.list

I believe the php5 package is a "security" package... look for this
line in the sources.list file:
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main

If all that is good to go, then everything should work.  You can try:
sudo apt-cache show php5

to verify the package details.
