Bug#456576: Apache2 don't start because file /etc/apache2/mods-available/alias.conf is not found

2007-12-16 Thread Clément Bâty 
Package: apache2
Version: 2.2.6-3
Severity: important


When the apache2 service is starting, I had an error saying that the
following line Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf in the apache2.conf 
file can't be executed because the file 
/etc/apache2/mods-available/alias.conf can not be found.

In fact, in my case, it was because the link to the alias was bad,
figuring a single dot . instead of a normal .. like I show in the lines
below :

The link was : 
alias.conf - ./mods-available/alias.conf
instead of
alias.conf - ../mods-available/alias.conf

in the mods-enabled directory so the link doesn't link to the right file

the link should normally be created with the a2enmod script, which 
does the correct link to ../mods-available/* . In fact, I could not 
find any script in the apache2 packages that contains a reference 
to ./mods-available . So either you created that link manually and 
mistyped it or there might be a postinstall script of a different 
package (third party module, webapp) that conatins a typo. To find 
the latter,

grep mods-available /var/lib/dpkg/info/*inst

might help.

Cheers,
Stefan
