Cerbot-auto goes to bootsraping dependencies

My domain is: http://ambossaustralia.com.au

I ran this command: /root/certbot-auto -d ambossaustralia.com.au -d www.ambossaustralia.com.au

It produced this output:

Bootstrapping dependencies for Debian-based OSes… (you can skip this with --no-bootstrap)

Ign:1 http://mirrors.linode.com/debian jessie InRelease

Hit:3 http://mirrors.linode.com/debian jessie Release

and start fetching things and ask After this operation, 986 kB disk space will be freed.

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] …

My web server is (include version): Apache

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Debian 8

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: Linode

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): yes

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot): Cannot run certbot-auto --version. Every certbot-auto command will go to the same error that I show you above.

I need help on how to renew my certificate or fix this. Not sure what this error means.

What’s wrong?

Can you pastebin certbot-auto’s full output?

certbot-auto is just running "apt-get update". Certbot didn't cause those errors.

Debian Jessie is old. It transitioned to Long Term Support almost a year ago. The jessie-updates repository was recently deleted from the mirrors. The last jessie-updates packages were merged into the jessie repository, so you can stop the error by commenting out jessie-updates in /etc/apt/sources.list.

(Don't disable the security repository, though!)

You should upgrade to Stretch soon.

I dunno about that.

You should research these issues, post on a Debian website, and/or ask MySQL support.
