lucid 10.04 LTS => Precise 12.04.1 : upgrade doesn't work
- by Rastom
I googled and looked into all unkown issues on ubuntu forums but I can't figure out why a 10.04 LTS server won't detect the last LTS 12.04.1. I guess since 12.04 is a fresh dist, not much is reported for related issues
Here is what I did :
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install update-manager-core
it was already installed so no update for this package.
I checked : /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[DEFAULT]
# Default prompting behavior, valid options:
#
# never - Never check for a new release.
# normal - Check to see if a new release is available. If more than one new
# release is found, the release upgrader will attempt to upgrade to
# the release that immediately succeeds the currently-running
# release.
# lts - Check to see if a new LTS release is available. The upgrader
# will attempt to upgrade to the first LTS release available after
# the currently-running one. Note that this option should not be
# used if the currently-running release is not itself an LTS
# release, since in that case the upgrader won't be able to
# determine if a newer release is available.
Prompt=lts
I also checked my sourcelist before running apt-get : /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security main restricted
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security main restricted
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security universe

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security multiverse
# deb http://landscape.canonical.com/packages/hardy ./
# deb-src http://landscape.canonical.com/packages/hardy ./
and then following Ubuntu guide for Precise upgrade the command below should work :
root@xxxxxxxxx:/etc/apt# do-release-upgrade -d
Checking for a new ubuntu release
No new release found
So am I missing something ?
The server was accessing outside through a proxy but I grant direct access to this server to avoid any Internet access problem or redirection but no clue...
Any help would be appreciated
