Attempting to upgrade from Ubuntu Server 16.04 to 18.*

I have read through multiple articles giving instruction on how to go from 16.04 to 18.*. None of which appear to be working for me.



When I get to



do-release-upgrade


I get the message



Checking for a new Ubuntu release
Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.


Currently I have /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades set to normal Setting this to LTS yields the same results.



Additionally this is after running both



sudo apt update && sudo apt update


Of course if I run



do-release-upgrade -d


I get the message



Upgrades to the development release are only
available from the latest supported release.


This makes sense to me. What am I missing here? Can I go from Ubuntu Server 16.04 to 18.*?



UPDATE



I noticed now when I run



sudo apt update


I get this output

I believe this may be whats keeping me from upgrading to 18.*. I am a little stuck at this point.

  • Just pulling on "Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading".... did you do a sudo apt update and, if necessary, sudo apt upgrade?
