Re: apache 1.3.28-4 on unstable

2003-10-27 Thread chbaker

Sorry. I subscribed here at work and didn't read work email all weekend. I
did a little searching around the net after sending my email to the list
and thought it might be a problem w/ /etc/apache/modules.conf . I looked at
that file and an old httpd.conf and all seemed to be in order. However, I
ran /usr/sbin/modules-config apache again anyway. This command was in the
comments in the header of modules.conf. This isn't a production machine so
it wasn't urgent. This morning I restarted apache and all is good.

BTW, was someone suggesting that I should read the bug reports for every
package before going ahead with an ``apt-get -u dist-upgrade''. I suppose
if I were really cautious I would, but then I wouldn't be running unstable
would I ;-) Thanks for the help.

For some reason I never saw this message from ??. Perhaps edited
/etc/apache/modules.conf, but are running apache-perl and need to edit
/etc/apache-perl/modules.conf? An easy mistake to make, as you can have
both installed.

Fixed on my system. I re-created modules.conf by stripping out the
loadmodules
statements from an older httpd.conf  modules.conf

Depends on your situation. But bug reports was the first place I went when
I had the same problem. Had everything working again in about 5 minutes
from initial discovery.

I was using apt-listbugs, but it is broken now.

Well, it is a known bug in the apache package, you should have checked.

Luckily, the fix was easy. Replacing modules.conf with a backup copy worked, 
as did extracting the loadmodule statements from an httpd.conf into 
modules.conf
