So the solution to the problem is to install your preferred php SAPI provider before or together with cacti. The problem apparently is that you do have a webserver running, but no php5 installed. Than the dependency resolve mechanism will pull in the first of the two if that is allowed, and that pulls in apache2. As it is possible to run two different webservers on the same machine (albeit not on the same port) they should not conflict, so indeed, there is nothing wrong in that respect. If you say that apache2 fails to install when an other webserver is already running, that would be a bug in the apache2 package, not in cacti. > As apache2 one of a list of suggested supported webservers, cacti should > properly depend on a meta package rather than directly on libapache2 > -mod-php5 As the php maintainer stated (unfortunately in private mail to me): """ It should be: | php5 * That way the would get picked up first if no SAPI is installed. or just php5 * That way you let the PHP5 maintainers choose preferred SAPI. """ So I could go for php5 alone, but I doubt that that would have prevented your issue as the first php SAPI provider of the php5 package is again libapache2-mod-php5.

[Bug 217591] Re: wrong dependency
cacti once again depends on libapache2-mod-php5 which causes apache2 to be installed, which in turn then fails to install if another webserver is installed and already running. As apache2 one of a list of suggested supported webservers, cacti should properly depend on a meta package rather than directly on libapache2 -mod-php5 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217591 Title: wrong dependency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cacti/+bug/217591/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 217591] Re: wrong dependency
I don't think it's right to do this. The dependency should be modified. CACTI should depend on a php meta package. 2008/6/12 Miroslav Prašil /cezz/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Workaround: install apache, but disable afterwards, if you don't want to > use it. > > ** Changed in: cacti (Ubuntu) > Status: New => Confirmed > -- Ren Xiaolei -- wrong dependency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Workaround: install apache, but disable afterwards, if you don't want to use it. ** Changed in: cacti (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- wrong dependency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
