Thank You for your help.

Found what the issue is my ISP is blocking the following link:

E: Failed to fetch http://download.hiveos.farm/repo/binary/./hive_0.6-145_all.deb 403 Forbidden [IP: 104.26.9.246 80]
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

that is why I get this error. Any way to go around this issue so I may upgrade my rigs?

For some reason this is treated as a virus…

did you find a solution my friend?

Try use mirror of repository

  1. Go to Farm settings
  2. Scroll down until you’ll find button

  3. Press button and you’ll find settings

  4. Put mirrors that listed bellow by “Add URL” button
  5. Try update Hive. It should work now

thank you all sorted got the ISP to insert the link to the whitelist.

Old thread, but I have started to experience this - was there a trick to discussing with the ISP?

Never mind - in my case, it was because my sources.list had been altered so I could force read from a live USB.

ty sir. 2 years later and this is the only fix that worked after trawling through the interweb. Cheers
