I upgraded my laptop from 10.04 to 12.04 yesterday, and all went well. So,
I decided to upgrade one of the workstations at work.
However this upgrade fails to start. It generates the following error
message early in the process, and then aborts completely:
:Failed to fetch
http://ppa.launchpad.net/pitti/postgresql/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/binary-amd64/Packages
404 Not Found
Looks like there is a missing file?
What can I do to resolve this?

It seems that you have unofficial PPAs added to your system.
You can open Software Center and search "Software sources" from menus.
Then you can disable unofficial repositories and then upgrade should work.
I use GPG/INLINE, because some mailing list programs modify the headers
of messages and this way make signature.asc files (PGP/MIME)
unverifiable. Please remove lines about beginning and ending GPG
signature blocks in your replies to messages, which are sent by me.

Problem upgrading 10.04 to 12.04
Check your sources.list and if you have:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pitti/postgresql/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/pitti/postgresql/ubuntu YOUR_UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main
Removing it may resolve this.

Looks like you may have a postgreSQL backport ppa package that was available in 10.04 and is not in 12.04.
If this is the same ppa that you had:

You may have to remove it.

I had forgoten that these were installed. One more thing that triped me up
is that I am acustomed to the update amnager commenting out 3rd part
repostories. Noot certain whay it did not do that this time.
Thanks for the rapid help!
