General Discussion

I have an Odroid C1 with a DietPi install that is based on Jessie. I would like to upgrade to current DietPi release. When I try to use diepi-update I receive the follow error message

Error: Obtained server version value from github is invalid. Please try running dietpi-update again.

When I try apt upgrade I get 100% 404 responses such as

Err http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates/non-free firmware-misc-nonfree all 20161130-5~deb8u1
404 Not Found [IP: 151.101.2.132 80]

Is my version of DietPi too old to upgrade and if so, what is the recommended approach to proceed?

I’m not sure if this possible at all. Your system is extremely old and it seems not updated for ages. As far as I can see, DietPi v114 is from 2016. All relevant repositories have been removed on Debian as well as DietPi side.

Yes, complete reinstall is necessary and you would need to backup the settings for each app individually.
