Hi, 

I tried to upgrade 4.0 Ubuntu Management server to 4.1 with below instructions :

Procedure 1:

1.  Add/Modify the line "deb http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/ubuntu precise 4.1 " 
in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cloudstack.list 
2.  apt-get update

Observation: It failed with GPG Error.  

Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu precise Release: The following 
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: 
NO_PUBKEY BBFCFE5386C278E3

I tried to key KEYS from 
http://www.apache.org/dist/dev/incubator/cloudstack/KEYS   as mentioned @ 
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.1-incubating/html/Installation_Guide/sect-source-verify.html
  .  
But I am getting 404 error as KEYS are not available at this location. 

Procedure 2:

1. Tried to create APT Repo with packages that are built @ 
http://jenkins.cloudstack.org/job/package-deb-4.1/ and tried apt-get update .  
But there are no packages got upgraded.  Filed the JIRA ticket for this issue 
couple of days back @  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-1848 


Thanks,
Sailaja.M

I did the same with the Deb packaging, I have a couple of VMs where I test all 
of this.

The problem is that we are moving files from location to location and we don't 
simply want to do all of that without telling the admin what is going on.

I'll try to do as much as I can in the packages and pre- and post-installation 
files, but I'll leave the "scary work" to the admins.

The big warning should say: BACKUP YOUR DATABASE before continuing.

So yes, the packages should do all the heavy lifting, but some guidance would 
be nice for a lot of users I think.
