Ku8buntu Hardy apt-get install mysql-server error

I am getting the following error when trying to install mysql-server on an old Kubuntu install (Hardy).

I assume it has something to do with MySQL 5.0 being a newer release and the server being quite old???

Code: Select all

Failed to fetch http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/poo ... 4_i386.dev
 
Size mismatch 
 
Unable to fetch some archives maybe try apt-get update or try with --fix-missing
I cannot upgrade the server I have been told to find the error and fix it only. Is this possible?

We have just ran

Code: Select all

 
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
And encountered the same problem on package 71 -- receiving the error above -- any ideas?

Code: Select all

aptitude safe-upgrade
Is what were going to try next.

I just need MySQL to be working :(
