I'm getting fail to fetch errors in apt-get:
Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/wily/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.23 80]
I thought it was a sources error, or DNS error, but /dists/wily/ really doesn't exist at us.archive.ubuntu.com anymore. Nor does it exist in several mirrors I tried. Where did it go? What's the valid wily source now?
The wily
version is in EOL
(End of Life): no longer supported.
You must follow these steps to use apt-get, by setting the use of oldversion repositories:
[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades][1]
modify with sudo
the file /etc/apt/sources.list
, e.g.:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
put into it:
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily main universe restricted multiverse deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily main universe restricted multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-security main universe restricted multiverse deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-security main universe restricted multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-updates main universe restricted multiverse deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily-updates main universe restricted multiverse
save the file
do: sudo apt-get update
