Package: apache2-mpm-prefork Version: 2.0.52-1 Severity: minor Hello,
if I upgrade the apache2-mpm-prefork package, the old apache is stopped via prerm and the postinst tries to force-reload the server. This results in a message `httpd (no pid file) not running' (and a running web server). I suggest to start apache in postinst unconditionally. Then, I think, you don't need preinst and the file /var/cache/apache2/reload any more. I'm not sure, if the alternative (not to stop apache on upgrade in postrm and force-reload in postinst) is a save way to replace it - you know better and may choose this one.
