Ah, I didn’t understand. “Log ended” means that the run completed. I’m glad you’ve got a resolution. Usually Linux is pretty good about not needing a reboot.

using a -F instead of -f will follow the log file even if it is truncated or rotated.

I’m not sure, I don’t use the software center at all. How long have you let it run for? It is possible that there is just a bunch of processing going on to update after removing the cdrom sources list.

You might find some additional information in /var/log/apt/term.log. Watching that log file while launching the software center might provide additional insight.

tail -f /var/log/apt/term.log

Can you share a screenshot?

You’re welcome, glad you got it sorted.

Check /etc/apt/sources.list and see if there is a line that starts with

deb cdrom:

in there, if so comment it out. You’ll have to update after updating the sources.
