Hi to all,  
I am in China and I just followed the instructions reported here:  
[http://www.nginx.org/en/download.html](http://www.nginx.org/en/download.html)  
but after running the “sudo apt-get update” command I get the following  
error:

W: Impossibile recuperare  
[http://nginx.org/packages/debian/dists/quantal/nginx/source/Sources](http://nginx.org/packages/debian/dists/quantal/nginx/source/Sources) 404  
Not Found

W: Impossibile recuperare  
[http://nginx.org/packages/debian/dists/quantal/nginx/binary-i386/Packages](http://nginx.org/packages/debian/dists/quantal/nginx/binary-i386/Packages)  
404  
Not Found

E: Impossibile scaricare alcuni file di indice: saranno ignorati o  
verranno usati quelli vecchi.

What can I do?  
Thanks.  
Kubuntu 12.10

Please, check your “/etc/apt/sources.list”.

It looks like you have confused ubuntu with debian.
