I am trying to install the build-essential package per the instructions located here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingCompilers

I get this error when I use the command apt-get install build-essential:

Media change: please insert the disc labeled
 'Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS _Precise Pangolin_ - Release i386 (20120817.3)'
in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter

When attempting to install the package through the Ubuntu Software Center, I get the following error: https://i.sstatic.net/rMIx5.png

Is there any way to install the package online only?

From the Ubuntu Software Center select Edit -> Software Sources... from the menu bar. Under the first tab called Ubuntu Software, deselect the Installable from CD-ROM/DVD source, then close the window.
