No matter what I do I cannot get the package installed :
sudo su
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install apache2
..though my computer is telling me ...
The program 'apache2' can be found in the following packages:
* apache2-mpm-event
* apache2-mpm-prefork
* apache2-mpm-worker
* apache2-mpm-itk
Try: sudo apt-get install
When I do this ... for instance with
root#xxxx:/home/fakler# apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork

pt-get update shows me many errors like that ...
Err http://security.ubuntu.com raring-security/main i386 Packages
404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.201 80]
Tried also installing Apache from here :
https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/raring/apache2.2-common/
but hitting click on the button available on the Software centre does not wor either (Nothing happens).
Someone has an idea ? Thanks.
Well, I could figure it out myself. Somewhere in Ubuntu, forgotten where, I just found it, there is an option where You can allow the user - Yourself - what are the reliable ressources for software upgrade/download. I did confirm that I allow download from the official Ubuntu ressources/servers as well as canonical software, third party software etc. I did also allow access / updates/installs from my CD Rom drive. After that, I could do the Apache 2 installation.

In my site I am getting an error : an error occurred while processing this directive
It was working fine before moving to the new server. So when I checked I found that mod_perl module is missing. So I tried to install it by downloading the module to the server and then tried to run using Perl Makefile.pl but it was asking for apache src and I was not able to find it. I can see /usr/bin/apache/ folder but no source file inside the folder.
So I tried to install the module from Cpanel but I got the following error:
The C compiler is not functional and auto repair failed. Perl module installs require a working C compiler. Please repair the C compiler and try again.
Please let me know how to install it as I have tried most of the cases searching the net.
Thanks in advance
It's probably best to use your distro's packaging system to install mod_perl, especially, if apache is installed from a package too.
Yum based systems:
yum install mod_perl
Deb based systems
apt-get install mod_perl
you may need to enable the module using a2enmod
Mostly gcc is either corrupted or not present on your system. Please try to re/install gcc on your system
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential
On Redhat:
yum update
yum install devtoolset-2-toolchain
It seems like a problem with your installation of gcc. You're using CloudLinux, so you should use yum to reinstall gcc.
$ sudo -i yum install gcc
But you don't need gcc if you install the pre-build packages.
$ sudo -i yum install mod_perl
Either way, you're going to need to get to grips with package installation for your system - and for that you're going to need root access.
I don't know what I did but I'm not able to install apache2 in my Ubuntu 14.04.
When I use sudo apt-get install apache2 I face this error.
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package apache2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libapache2-mpm-itk:i386 libapache2-mpm-itk
E: Package 'apache2' has no installation candidate
First make sure that your proxy is disabled as that can cause a problem sometimes.
Then run the following.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install apache2
If that doesn't work you can always compile your own apache2. A tutorial for that is located here: https://www.virgohacks.net/install-apache-2-4-mysql-5-6-php-5-5-source-ubuntu-14-04/
Good luck
Recently reinstalled my computer with Ubuntu 14.04.
This pc is to be used to develop ASP.NET mono applications.
So I installed the latest 3.12.0 version of Mono.
Also installed Apache2 (2.4.7 is the latest).
Last thing is to install Mod_Mono. This is where it fails.
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono

So I tried to install apache2.2-common but that does not exist, there is only a apache2.2-bin. I installed that and it still did not solve my problem.
sudo apt-get install apache2.2-common

E: Package 'apache2.2-common' has no installation candidate
Any suggestions to what I can do so I can host my Mono application through apache2?
Solved this issue by installing Apache 2.2.22.
Had a bit of trouble doing that, but finally installed it running this command.
sudo apt-get install apache2=2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7 apache2.2-common=2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7 apache2.2-bin=2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7 apache2-mpm-worker=2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7
Note: you need to add the precise repository to your software sources, else you won't have the package available to install.

and without fcgid mod i cannot launch apache server

* Restarting web server apache2 [fail]
* The apache2 configtest failed.
Output of config test was:
apache2: Syntax error on line 140 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/fcgid.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Action 'configtest' failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.
apache version 2.4
This worked for me: Ubuntu 21.10 in year 2022:
sudo apt-get install -y libapache2-mod-fcgid
I know it is a bit late for a response but, since there is no answer yet, I'll put one.
In this situation, the dependencies from libapache2-mod-fcgid are not met. In this case, you could download and install apache2.2-common prior the installation of libapache2-mod-fcgid like this:
sudo apt-get install apache2.2-common
and then try your install command afterward.
I have tried to install mod_security, but it has the error, so I tried aptitude:

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
I do now know what Keep the following packages at their current version means.
I want to know what does happen if I press yes. Does it replace my current apache2? Do I need to back up before doing this?
ANSWERS
I do now know what Keep the following packages at their current version mean
aptitude is trying to resolve the dependencies and possible conflicts to satisfy your installation request. It then proposes a solution. In your particular case the first solution it finds is to keep everything as it actually is, that's what keep at their current version + [Not installed] means.
I want to know what does happen if I press yes , does it replace my current apache2 ?
No, that solution will basically do nothing.
Do I need back up before ?
As boring as it sounds, backups are a good strategy to save time in the long run. If you're messing with important data then it should be even more important for you.
CONTEXT
I've seen other scenarios make aptitute propose solutions with combinations like these:
Remove the following packages
Keep the following packages at their current version
Leave the following dependencies unresolved
The following packages have been kept back
The following packages will be upgraded
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required
The following extra packages will be installed
Suggested packages
The following packages will be REMOVED
(and probably others)
In your case if instead of accepting the solution (or quitting), you reject it by pressing n, then aptitude will try to figure out another scenario that could be useful and propose it to you again. You can iterate through the solutions doing that and if any of them satisfies you then you can accept it.
SOLUTION (?)
As far as I can see by your output:
apache2.2-common : Depends: apache2.2-bin (= 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.4) but 2.4.6-2~precise+1 is installed.
Your problem is that you have apache2-2.4.6-2~precise+1 installed which isn't available from standard Ubuntu precise repositories (most probably installed from this PPA), and you're requesting a package which conflicts with that other one.
I'd take a look at the answers on how to remove PPAs and after you have removed that source I'd reinstall apache 2.2 from the standard repos with this command:
sudo aptitude install apache2
That's exactly what it did for me:
$ sudo apt-get remove apache2-bin
$ sudo apt-get autoremove
$ sudo apt-get install apache2
Open synaptic manager and search for apache2.2-bin. Mark it for removal. Then
sudo apt-get install apache2
Just remove all the content of /var/lib/apt/lists directory:
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
then run:
sudo apt-get update
