I habe been running v6 for some time now and at the beginning, when running "apt update && apt upgrade -y", I was getting updates for Ubuntu once in a while. There has been no update for months, can that be correct or am I just doing something wrong (again)?
When you do a sudo apt update are you seeing error messages?
It would also be good to know what version of Ubuntu your using ( cat /etc/os-release )
Please upload a debug log and post just the token URL that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:
pihole -d
or do it through the Web interface:
Tools > Generate Debug Log
No errors... Needless to say, I have ZERO knowledge with Ubuntu....
root@pi-hole-6:~# apt update && apt upgrade -y

And then there is this:
root@pi-hole-6:~# cat /etc/os-release

Here is the log: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/5GIyFFqX/
Ubuntu 23.04 / Lunar Lobster reached end of life on Jan 1st 2024. See the attached link.
This means no more updates etc. You should consider updating the OS per the instructions in the attached link..
Thank you for the info. I do not understand how the upgrade should work. I am pretty sure I do not have a desktop so I have to go with the "servers".
It was set to "normal".
So what does this mean?
Looks like "sudo do-release-upgrade" is doing the job. At least it is doing something... Let's see what happens!
Perfection is what happens....
Thanks for the help guys. What difference would the "-d" have made? I left that out....
I'm not sure. I'm not an Ubuntu user. You should be able to run man do-release-upgrade or do-release-upgrade --help to get information on the options.
Looking at version 23.10, it reaches end of life on July 11th of this year so you may want to take some time to look at upgrading to version 24.04. See the attached article for more info.
LTS = Long Term Support
If I understand it correctly, I should be good for a while... 
You should upgrade your Ubuntu Distribution to the latest version. Right now, the latest version is Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat. I think you aren't getting the updates because you have a version that reached its end-of-support period. I hope this solves your problem.
Thank you, but as you can see in my screen shot, that is where I currently am. Updates are working again.
