apache-common doesn't contain the init script or the cronjobs so i don't think this is relevant in our case. > > > >>Hey, can you mail me the default /etc/init.d/apache ? > > > > > > It is inside the .deb.

That would require me to have root access and to be able to perform tests installing/removing apache and i doubt you can provide that (of course you can than i will be glad to look at this problem [0]). But at this point in time i don't think it is an apache bug at all but something related to your system.
