:-) Please select the modules that apache will load
and then, no matter which modules i enter, i get the following error:
expr: syntax error
dpkg: error processing libapache-mod-perl (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
libapache-mod-perl
i've tried apt-get removing this package, i've tried dpkg
--configuring it ... nothing works.
now i actually want libapache-mod-mp3, and its concomitant packages.
is libapache-mod-perl in any way conncted with this? even if it's
not, i'd like to make it stop giving me this obnoxious error message
every time i use apt.
any hints?
thanks,
</nori>
