http://serverfault.com – I want to install mailman (just to use it's mail archiving feature) but Ubuntu wants to pull down a load of extra dependencies. sudo apt-get install mailman Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following extra packages will be installed: apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2.2-common Suggested packages: apache2-doc apache2-suexec apache2-suexec-custom spamassassin lynx listadmin Is there any way to mark those packages ( apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2.2-common ) as never to be installed?

Stuck with Apache2 36 weeks 5 days ago

I cant finish Apache2 install, also cannot remove it. It has blocked my dpkg, now I cant get no installations in or out. I even tried distro upgrade, but it did still has broken dpkg..

How to fix this and get normal Apache2 running?

Just for the heck of it:

gundars@SR528:~$ sudo apt-get remove apache2-common Reading package lists...

I recently removed apache2 from my linode ubuntu server with:

apt-get --purge remove apache2

Then tried to install it again (apt-get install apache2).

Setting path for apache 34 weeks 2 days ago

I installed apache2 on my local machine, and when typing "which apache2" it returns: "/usr/sbin/apache2". And when trying setting path for apache2 by using the following command: "sudo apache2 -settingpath /usr/sbin/apache2" It failed!

Hello,

I'm trying to install the websvn package on Ubuntu Server 12.10, but I get an error message that it's conflicting with apache2-mpm-worker, and it suggests removing it. I don't want to remove apache2-mpm-worker since I think it's working well for my PHP configuration.

Are there any alternatives?

Thanks, Sammy
