Unless you have extended LTS support, Wheezy is end-of-life (as of May 2018) and thus the repositories may be unavailable. You should upgrade to a supported version of Debian.

and after upgrade apt will work correctly?

you can click on http://ftp.ua.debian.org/debian/ (and go into dists) and you will see wheezy is removed. It is not available any more. I have no idea if it was still available anywhere.

Debian 7.11 was released Saturday, 4th June 2016.

from readme

so you need to replace wheezy, use oldstable instead (in sources.list).

so I need to change wheezy to oldoldstable and try apt-get update?

pan64 · 04-01-2019, 02:08 AM

Yes, I think you need to do something like that. but I could not find oldoldstable too, just oldstable.

sad story but it's a progress, so one thing i can do is to upgrade system? what version you suggest? I'm newbee in Debian and Linux

hydrurga · 04-01-2019, 02:32 AM

The latest stable version of Debian is Stretch so that would seem the best bet.

https://www.debian.org/distrib/

A fresh install would probably be the best way to go, but remember to back your data up to a couple of locations before doing so.

So what's the story behind you being a Linux newbie but having a Wheezy server, if I can ask? Did you inherit it or were you given responsibility for it at a new workplace? Are you able to take it offline while updating it?

yes, it a new workplace and I don't work with that before, we have server on ukraine.com.ua, try to install let's encrypt sertificate on your site, but one problem goes for another and i see that OS on server is to old and can't update...but they have automatic update for new OS I'll ask can I install Stretch
And I can do all copies before istall new OS

Ok. If the server is critical then you might be best trying to get the new version of Debian and all related server software working in a virtual machine or on a very similar computer first in order to check that all is working ok so as to minimise downtime.

I really am no expert on servers so I recommend you continue to wait for advice on those who are such experts before proceeding.

Ok, very thanks for reply.
