I am trying to install apache2 in Ubuntu 12. I installed Ubuntu in Virtual Machine. I have problems. First, my system can not update or upgrade. When I type:

I receive a lot of errors like this:

Err http://security.ubuntu.com quantal-security/main Sources
  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.14 80]

At the final line, this is the result:

W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/quantal-backports/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.13 80]

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Second, when I try to install apache2. I type:

sudo apt-get install apache2 apache2-doc apache2-utils

Again, it fails. The result:

e@ubuntu:/etc$ sudo apt-get install apache2 apache2-doc apache2-utils Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package apache2 E: Unable to locate package apache2-doc E: Unable to locate package apache2-utils e@ubuntu:/etc$

Can you help me plz?

EDIT: This command does not work either.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

I get:

W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/quantal-backports/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.24 80]

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

The problem is with the OS installation. use sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade. If ou cannot update. Then try to re-install the OS. After a fresh install of your OS try sudo apt-get install apache2 apache2-doc apache2-utils
