Ubuntu "unable to open the lock file (cocould not get lock)" problem solved, ubuntulock

When installing software with apt-get, the following message is displayed:

Unable to obtain lock/var/lib/dpkg/lock-open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)

Unable to lock the management directory (/var/lib/dpkg/). Is there any other process occupying it?

 

In fact, an error has been reported, indicating that a process is occupying the apt-get command, So...

Run the command to find the process and kill it!

Ps-aux | grep "apt"

Sudo kill PID (process ID)

Check whether there are apt processes:

Ps-e | grep apt

If no prompt is displayed, the apt process has been killed.

Try sudo apt-get install again (software)

It should be possible to install... if not, there are other similar solutions on the Internet, but it is not recommended to use!
