Reading your Screenlog.txt file it looks like there may have been an
issue communicating with your mirror of the Ubuntu archive. Please try
switching mirrors and upgrading again.  Thanks!

Title:
  Upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS failed due to apparent lack of
  ubuntu-minimal in /etc/apt/sources.list

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  update=manager after 5 min. reports:

  ...  After updating your package information, the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' could not be located. This may be because you have no official mirrors listed in your software sources, or because of excessive load on the mirror you are using. See /etc/apt/sources.list for the current list of configured software sources. In the case of an overloaded mirror, you may want to try the upgrade again later.
