Package: apache2-common
Version: 2.0.54-5

When I issue "/etc/init.d/apache2 stop", I get a message:
        Stopping web server: Apache2 ... no pidfile found! not running?.

This appears to be caused by a binary file existing in my /etc/apache2 directory, which causes the "grep" command in apache_stop() to produce:
        /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:PidFile /var/run/apache2.pid
        Binary file /etc/apache2/apache2.tar matches

When this is filtered thru awk, the for loop tries to read a pid from "/var/run/apache2.pid" and "file", as these are the second words from the first and second lines of output. It successfully reads one from /var/run/apache2.pid, but fails to read one from file. It then sets PID to the correct pid from /var/run/apache2.pid, but erroneously sets PIDFILE to file rather than /var/run/apache2.

The following patch should correctly set PIDFILE to the same file that contained a PID.
