    Ubuntu 22.10 (along with all flavors) is End-of-Life and thus unsupported on this site (https://askubuntu.com/help/on-topic), and many other Ubuntu sites, unless your question is specific to moving to a supported release of Ubuntu. https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2023/07/27/ubuntu-22-10-kinetic-kudu-end-of-life-reached-on-july-20-2023/ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades – guiverc Oct 24 '23 at 11:50
  • Your issue is because the release is EOL. After a release goes EOL, mirrors are free to drop support, and the main archive is moved. Your errors are a result of the EOL being reached and thus what occurs after i having occurred. Warnings of the release are published 6 weeks prior & again at EOL, though you can check with your system (ubuntu-security-status at any time and get details whenever you wish). – guiverc Oct 24 '23 at 11:52
  • I see, sorry i am new to this. Thank you for the feedback. Then i need to find a way to have the 22.04 lts. – felix Oct 24 '23 at 11:57
  • You've not mentioned what product you're using (Ubuntu 22.10 Server? Ubuntu 22.10 Desktop etc), but either way Ubuntu releases have an QA-tested & supported path to newer releases; 22.10's only path was to Ubuntu 23.04 with details provided here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LunarUpgrades) though given you're EOL you may also need to use the EOLUpgrades link I provided earlier. For Ubuntu Desktop systems you can non-destructively re-install, which allows you to go forwards & backwards though there are complications with going backwards (best avoided for newbies) – guiverc Oct 24 '23 at 12:14
  • I am using the Ubuntu 22.10 Server in digital ocean – felix Oct 25 '23 at 12:10
  • There is no supported or quality assurance tested way to go backwards on a Server install, outside of reverting the system from backups (ie. self-managed approaches). Desktop installs have more choices as all desktop configs are stored in $HOME which is untouched via re-install; many Server apps store configs in system directories which are wiped via re-install (thus configs lost) meaning the release-upgrade to newer release is the expected option. – guiverc Oct 25 '23 at 12:12
