Hi
Newbie to the forum here so I hope I'm doing this right. If not please
would someone guide me. Thx in advance.
As the subject line says Apache2 is not working at all / satisfactorily
since the Ubuntu upgrade. The details follow:
===========================
Here is my full post on askubuntu:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/904042/upgrade-to-16-04-lts-has-broken-apache
Currently the biggest help I could get would be if someone would
decipher what the following output means when I do :
systemctl status apache2.service
output:
===============

purvez@127:~$
The MAIN question is : Is Apache started and functioning or is it
inactive (dead)?
The last line of the output suggests that it is working but the 5th /
6th line from the top suggests the opposite.
The errorlog is blank and the accesslog is blank as well since the day
of the upgrade.

Thanks in advance
