Hello everybody,

I am getting this message while loging into my ubuntu desktop (website server):


New release '14.04.1 LTS' available.
Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.

It is safe to upgrade??

NB: I have all my website data in the server.

Best regards

Have a look around the forum and see the posts from people having problems.

All data should always be backed up to an external source before performing any release upgrade or reinstallation!

Remember that 12.04 (Precise) is still supported until April 2017 so there is no rush unless you encountered HWE EOL (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL).
