    What do you mean it's failing? What do you actually see if it does? Why would you not be able to do this for your docker builds? Especially for those it should be easy. Change your base layer and just rebuild the images.

According to the IRC channel for Debian, jessie-updates is now not supported:



Oldstable: Debian Jessie, jessie-updates and jessie-backports REMOVED 2019-03-24


Your solution is either to upgrade to Stretch, or update your /etc/apt/sources.list to the following:



deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian/ jessie main

deb http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main


jessie-updates has been removed and jessie-backports has been archived

The debian Team did not move jessie-updates to the archive repository (yet). But they already removed it from the regular repositories. So you currently have no access to jessie-updates. Therefore you need to remove it from the sources.list.

    – Stephen Kitt
    Mar 27 at 19:07











  • I have no problem with it being moved, but this answer suggests that they deleted the original before they brought the archived version online, leaving the contents completely inaccessible for this particular version of this particular distribution. If that's true, that's terrible and short-sighted. If it's not, we can edit the answer.

Jessie is no longer supported. They have taken it off the automatic updates for security reasons.



You need to do a full reinstall of bionic beaver.



At least that’s what I did.

    Bionic Beaver is Ubuntu, whereas the question is related to Debian, whilst Ubuntu does use the Debian architecture, installing cross OSs can get complicated. If you need to update within Debian, Stretch (9.x) is the best route to go.

  • I have no problem with it being moved, but this answer suggests that they deleted the original before they brought the archived version online, leaving the contents completely inaccessible for this particular version of this particular distribution. If that's true, that's terrible and short-sighted. If it's not, we can edit the answer.

    @Lightness because all the updates have been merged into the main archive, and there will be no further updates so the updates repository is no longer necessary.

  • @StephenKitt This answer says they have not been moved to the archive yet

  • @Lightness oh, you were implying that they shouldn’t move the repository, and that deleting it was fine? Sorry, I misunderstood.

Jessie is no longer supported. They have taken it off the automatic updates for security reasons.



You need to do a full reinstall of bionic beaver.

    Bionic Beaver is Ubuntu, whereas the question is related to Debian, whilst Ubuntu does use the Debian architecture, installing cross OSs can get complicated. If you need to update within Debian, Stretch (9.x) is the best route to go.
