I have problem with doing sudo apt-get update. I got the following message:

OS info

>>> uname -a
Linux 4.15.0-29-generic #31-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 17 15:39:52 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm confused on what the archiveubuntu.digital.local is. How can I fix it?

    Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove these entries or open software and updates app and uncheck the repos – Kulfy Aug 14 '18 at 10:37
  • "archiveubuntu.digital.local" is a server from where your Ubuntu PC downloads updates. For some reason it's unavailable now. Change the download server from the app Software & Updates. – HattinGokbori87 Aug 14 '18 at 10:43
  • Thanks! Should I check these entries again later on? They are there for a purpose, aren't they? – kmichael08 Aug 14 '18 at 11:06
  • You can check whenever you want. But it's highly recommended that you check it ASAP. – Kulfy Aug 14 '18 at 11:10
  • Ok, sorry for bothering, but do I understand correctly? There is an error on the server's side. And it is supposed to be fixed. One option is to change the server. Am I right? – kmichael08 Aug 14 '18 at 11:18
  • The error can be seen as an error on the server side... but the server archiveubuntu.digital.local is no more available and probably never will be. It says .local at the end which means it's not valid on the internet, only on the network where someone has setup this machine. Please have a look here for restoring the default package sources : https://askubuntu.com/a/192388/454520 – pim Aug 14 '18 at 11:36
