But I can't unset ServerName which is being forcedly set in httpd.conf. There's some words about black magic in /usr/share/apache/postinst.common wrt setting ServerName. I probably can just remove the text postinst.common searches for, to avoid this issue, but.. that required me about an hour to figure it all out!.. ;) Why the ServerName is being set in the first place, anyway? Setting it quietly is bad (hence Severity set to grave - it silently brokes valid configuration), but why to set it at all?

Before upgrade the configuration was perfectly valid, with ServerName taken from hostname apache is running on. After upgrades, ServerName is set to invalid 'localhost'. If a global ServerName is set in the configuration, dpkg-reconfigure works as it should, in my tests. If I remove the global ServerName directive and reconfigure, a new configuration is created and debconf asks for the server name to use, defaulting to localhost. It then adds a global ServerName directive and delegates to ucf to ask whether it's okay to replace the file. If for some reason, debconf or ucf don't get to do their jobs (e.g. noninteractive frontend), the configuration file is not changed. This is the intended behaviour. Usually I keep local modifications in another file (httpd.conf.local) - stuff like MinSpareServers, mod_proxy configs (if any) etc - it's easy to overwrite those even if set in the default httpd.conf. But I can't unset ServerName which is being forcedly set in httpd.conf. Do you Include the httpd.conf.local file? If I add a .local file Included from httpd.conf, and I unset ServerName in httpd.conf and add it to httpd.conf.local, dpkg-reconfigure correctly reads and writes to .local instead of httpd.conf. It *will* use ucf to prompt you whether to replace the file, which is sort of weird (I'll file another bug about this). However, as before, I don't see a bug. Why the ServerName is being set in the first place, anyway? Setting it quietly is bad (hence Severity set to grave - it silently brokes valid configuration), but why to set it at all? From what I understand, it's needed for redirections when no vhost matches. apache warns you if you start it without specifying a value, so it's probably good that Debian sets it. I am closing this bug. If you feel this is not okay, please provide more information (like your configuration

Bug#386669: confusing use of ucf
Package: apache Version: 1.3.34-4 Severity: normal If I Include httpd.conf.local from httpd.conf and set ServerName in the .local file, debconf will correctly preseed dpkg-reconfigure, and furthermore, it also writes the change to .local, which is nice. However, then ucf is run asking me whether to install the new version of httpd.conf.local. I think that's mighty confusing. ucf is intended to be used for package-provided files, not just any configuration file, I think. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (750, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (250, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- .''`. martin f. krafft [EMAIL PROTECTED] : :' :proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems signature.asc Description: Digital signature (GPG/PGP)

Hi, I think only apache was uploaded for CVE-2006-3918, and not apache2. Do you intend to issue a DSA for apache2 as well? Or isn't it affected by the vulnerability? This is fixed in apache2 = 2.0.55-4.1 in unstable. Thanks, -- Loïc Minier [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Or isn't it affected by the vulnerability? This is fixed in apache2 = 2.0.55-4.1 in unstable. The issue is less severe for apache2 because it is much more difficult to exploit: apache2 will first wait for the request timeout (usually 5 minutes) before sending the problematic error message.
