Apt-get upgrade fails

[walnut2388]

The same apt-get upgrade error appears on my 2019.1 and even fresh installation of 2019.2. I am running Kali Linux on vmware
" File has unexpected size (122092 != 1645028). Mirror sync in progress?"

Fresh installation of Kali 2019.2

root@kali:/etc/apt# grep VERSION /etc/os-release
VERSION="2019.2"
VERSION_ID="2019.2"
root@kali:/etc/apt#
root@kali:/etc/apt# uname -a

Apt-get update works
but, Apt-get upgrade produces error.

Please help

Hello buddy,
You can change your current list to mirror list::
I see you stilll using 'http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling/main' , You can use mirror list for better connectivity.. & try some cmd

apt clean
apt update
apt upgrade or apt upgrade

[Mister_X]

Try running apt-get update first

[walnut2388]

apt-get update works fine.

root@kali:~# apt-get update
Hit:1 http://mirror.aktkn.sg/kali kali-rolling InRelease

After which, apt-get upgrade fails as shown in information provided earlier

[walnut2388]

I think i found the problem

Although my "sources.list" only included >> deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib >> The "apt-get" process was redirected to other other sites and my home-PC AV (AVG Internet Security) blocked it in real-time.

I confirmed by turning off my AV and "apt-get upgrade" completed without error.

[Mister_X]

Thanks for the update

[Raid]

I had a similiar issue, I tried so many things and this simple command fixed it

apt-get update --fix-missing
