Package: apache Version: 1.3.34-3 Followup-For: Bug #383267 I did a "set -x" on /var/lib/dpkg/info/apache.postinst
After doing the db_conf section, I noticed this: > >+ db_set apache/server-name apu.exley.net >+ _db_cmd 'SET apache/server-name' apu.exley.net >+ printf '%s\n' 'SET apache/server-nameapu.exley.net' >+ IFS=' >' >+ read -r _db_internal_line >+ RET='10 apache/server-nameapu.exley.net doesn'\''t exist' >+ case ${_db_internal_line%%[ ]*} in >+ return 10 >dpkg: error processing apache (--configure): > subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 10 > Errors were encountered while processing: > apache ...Looks to me like there's a missing space between var and value, although I'm not sure This bug also applies to apache-ssl which is failing with the same problem (I don't know how to "link" the bug to two packages, my apologies). further checking shows the problem is in /usr/share/apache/postinst.common, lines 163-184. The bug is manifested by the call to db_set on line 186, but I think it's introduced in the awk call in line 164. Actually, I'm not sure that the problem isn't in _db_cmd itself -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (900, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (200, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.2006010301 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB) Versions of packages apache depends on: ii apache-common 1.3.34-3 support files for all Apache webse ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.3 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6-19 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.4 4.4.20-7 Berkeley v4.4 Database Libraries [ ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3.2 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libmagic1 4.17-3 File type determination library us ii logrotate 3.7.1-3 Log rotation utility ii lsb-base 3.1-14 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii mime-support 3.37-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii perl 5.8.8-6.1 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction apache recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * apache/enable-suexec: true * apache/server-name: apu.exley.net * apache/document-root: /var/www * apache/server-port: 80 * apache/init: true * apache/server-admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
