Dear Bob,

I had to deal with this same problem recently when a broken php module
 was put in the unstable package repository. The way I got past this
 problem was to comment out the lines (in apache2.conf, I think) that
 loaded broken modules. I can no longer find a configuration file that
 specifies modules to load, so I think it was replaced with the
 /etc/apache2/mods-available and /mods-enabled which I now see. If I had
 this problem now, I would temporarily delete the links to the broken
 modules in mods-enabled so that apache2 would not try to load them when
 being stopped/started by apt.

Chris,

Thank you very much.  This fixed the problem.

[vox-tech] Apt Problem

2006-12-06 Thread Bob Scofield
I've got a problem with apt dist-upgrade.

It started when I accidentally installed apache.  I then removed apache, which 
was a mistake.  I've since re-installed and re-removed apache but can't fix 
the problem.  Here's the problem.

When I do apt dist-upgrade I get this error message:

dpkg: apache2-common: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you 
request:
 apache2-mpm-prefork depends on apache2-common (= 2.0.55-4.1).
(Reading database ... 117542 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing apache2-common ...
Stopping apache 2.0 web server...Syntax error on line 1 
of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php4.load:
Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp4.so into 
server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp4.so: cannot open shared object file: 
No such file or directory
 failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript apache2, action stop failed.
dpkg: error processing apache2-common (--remove):
 subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 apache2-common
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:

Here's why this is a serious problem.  If I have other non-apache packages to 
upgrade, they will not upgrade after apt quits because of the apache problem.  
So the apache problem is bigger than it looks.

Thank you for any help you can give me.
