Note that I have searched previous questions and tried the following suggestions in the previous answers:
rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/
- made sure that in
/etc/apt/sources.listthe mirror url is http://mirrors.digitalocean.com/ubuntu/ instead of http://mirrors.digitalocean.com/

Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) reached “End of Life” on July 23, 2015 and is no longer supported. Ubuntu has recently remove it from their official mirrors. If you still require the Apt repositories for it, you’ll need to edit your /etc/apt/source.list to point to:
http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
We’ve also set up a mirror for it at:
http://mirrors.digitalocean.com/ubuntu-old
Though you are strongly encouraged to upgrade to a more recent release. Security updates are no longer provided for any packages in 14.10. We are providing that repository as a convenience and temporary work around for those who haven’t upgraded to a supported release yet.
Same issue here. And cannot solve it =/
Already tried https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/ubuntu-14-04-apt-get-update-404-not-found-issue with kakeiso97’ comment. But no change.
