Another test
- kill all the httpd processes
- try to uninstall by dpkg -r httpd
Same errors on
invoke-rc.d: not a symlink: "/etc/rc2.d/S20httpd"
invoke-rc.d: dangling symlink: "/etc/rc2.d/S20httpd"
I definitevely cannot uninstall hhtpd ( anyone on this list has an idea ? )
but it works and that is why I downloaded it !
