Question
Upgrading server from Ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04?
Hi,
I am getting this notice when logging into my droplet:
New release ‘15.04’ available.
Run 'do-release-upgrade’ to upgrade to it.
However when I attempt “do-release-upgrade -d”, I get the warning “no valid mirror found” and do I want to update the sources.list file. Is this safe? or will updating the sources.list file effect the operation of my droplet in the future?
Any advice? Should I just avoid updating to the new release?
Thanks in advance,
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,
I did tried to upgrade to 15.04 too but Digitalocean’s apt mirrors (i.e. mirrors.digitalocean.com) doesn’t contain packages for Vivid 15.04 yet.
If want to upgrade to this version, edit your sources.list and add the following and adapt to your country :
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid-updates main restricted
I’ve seen some posts on the forum saying there’s some bug when booting 15.04 kernel, but I haven’t tried it yet.
