I'm still getting this darn error,

root@server:~# sudo apt-get install add-apt-repository
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package add-apt-repository

Maybe it's something to do with my vps

follow this guide to add them from console: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repos ... ommandLine

Remember Im really noob at this kinda stuff thanks for all the help so far though.

sorry try this instead:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

Lovely now im getting a deb command not found :'(

dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
fork failed: Cannot allocate memory
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)

I've got 512mb ram on this vps, you would think thats enough. oh well...I'll try it again when I order my dedicated server sometime this week.

from what?

i updated the previous set of commands so this is all you need to do:

when trying to run sudo apt-get install python-software-properties i get the memory error. it should work on 512mb of ram shouldn't it?

doubt it has anything to do with your ram size. Its really an ubuntu issue that you should probably search or post on their forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1367582

I posted there, waiting for a reply now. Thanks again for the help you've given me
