How to fix “dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run sudo dpkg –configure -a to correct the problem” error. Whether you are a beginner or a pro, if you have been using Linux or Nginx for WordPress then it may be common to see the error when you try to install apt-get or using apt or doing just a Yum Update.
The dpkg error message indicates that there is a problem with the package installer, which is commonly caused by an interrupted installation process or a corrupted database.
The error can be caused by multiple reasons. You might have lost your internet connection, the package being installed was corrupted, or another issue you can't point out. The problem with not knowing why the error occurred is that you can't solve the issue straight away.
This error occurs when you stop any installation while it's in progress. Regardless of whether you are using the terminal or the Ubuntu app center, the error will still be generated.
You can solve this by removing the broken installation. To do so, enter the following commands in the terminal in the order they are written.
cd /var/lib/dpkg/updates
sudo rm *
sudo apt-get update
run the command sudo dpkg --configure -a
