    What happens, when you're trying to run apt-get upgrade without "sudo" as root user?

    Please post your /etc/apt/source.list. I think a repository causes the problem.


    PS: Atm do you have squeeze or wheezy?

    Thanks @Ninos, I removed the vps is to do some testing and to practice some things poneren the panel.


    It will not take much to cause the error, I put it again with the same panel for debian and upgrade again

    Best solution, IMHO, clean Wheezy install, not upgrade. It might cause you some downtime, but I had everything running in under 2 hours when I did that. Upgrades can always cause unexpected problems. Sometimes sooner, sometimes later.


    it ain't that hard to do.
