Issue with 10:04 upgrade due to office org

Asked by Janet Shelly

I followed the instructions to upgrade from 8:04 to 10:04. 3-hours later I got a message at the very end of the download stating the upgrade was disconnected, finished, could not continue because of a problem with office.org. So how do I do the upgrade?
