Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Windows Subsystem 403 forbidden on apt-get update
0
I am using the Ubuntu Windows Subsystem. When I try to do apt update, the program says that the site is 403 forbidden. I can still access the resources on the site by with my browser. The log is posted below. It is abridged. Please find the full log at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vTyljlAtCg0KAkYFROi-TKL2bwS514NX/view?usp=sharing
