Solution:

If you check the proxmox repository  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list, you will find that the apt package manager on the fresh Proxmox host is configured to download packages from Enterprise Repository. For enterprise package, unless your pay the subscription one cannot upgrade the proxmox.   

If you don't want to pay and use the free version of Proxmox you should switch to No-Subscription Repository.

To do that replace the repository:

deb http://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-enterprise

with following:

deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription


Now try updating, it should work.

root@moni:~##apt update

Hit:1 http://security.debian.org buster/updates InReleaseHit:2 http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster InRelease

14 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.

root@moni:~# apt upgrade
