Bug#239416: postinst script debugged

[Patrice Neff <www@patrice.ch>]

Package: apache
Version: 1.3.29.0.2-4
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #239416

Hi,

I just put in the `set -x' into the postinst.common script.

It fails when calling the invoke-rc.d script. If I do it manually, I get
the following error:
  Starting web server: apache failed
  invoke-rc.d: initscript apache, action "start" failed.

If I invoke the command `/etc/init.d/apache start' manually I get
  Starting web server: apache failed

It seems this has to do with the fact, that Apache is already running.
If I stop it first, both commands (invoke-rc.d and /etc/init.d/apache)
can start apache just fine.

Hope this helps,
patrice
