apache2 update fails

[AWV]

Got everything updated except apache2. Seems it has dependency issues. tells me to use apt-get install -f. that tries then returns

"errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/apache2_2.4.10+deb8u1_armhf.deb
E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"

Tried to purge apache2 but get dependency errors doing that too.

Ideas?

[AWV]

There's nothing wrong with /var/cache/apt/archives/apache2_2.4.10+deb8u1_armhf.deb I renamed it, it refetched and gave same errors

[AWV]

error appears to be in trying to overwrite /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf > I tried renaming this to .old and it still gives same error. I'm really lost

[AWV]

Come on guys, help me out here. I can't get apache2 either on or off. I've tried everything suggested and all I've found on google.....

[AWV]

Checked owner and permissions for /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf , exactly same as my regular Kali laptop. Don't see why it can't overwrite this. Even renamed it can't write it. I can change permissions from root explorer but that doesn't help. Changing directory permissions doesn't help either.

[AWV]

still hoping for ideas on this. Really don't want to wipe this thing because a file can't be overwritten....

What is the output you get from "ls -lah /etc/apache2/sites-available/" ?

[AWV]

Thank you for responding! Output is this:

Yeah as you said, everything looks alright there. Try doing the "apt-get remove --purge apache2" and provide the full output here.

Assuming that isn't working, what is the specific error you are getting about the 000-default.conf file? Again the specific error copy/pasted you will help a lot to figure out the issue.

Note- apt-get -f install (without specifying apache2) gives same mess.

and apt-get autoremove fails too. "unmet dependencies":

Anyone have any ideas at all?

Hi there

have had a look in a newer thread with the same problem and found yours while searching a solution!
Please follow this thread as it's stupid to have the same theme two times --> https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...se-help-me-out!
There might also be already a solution too!

I know better than to dupe a thread but was getting desperate as I got no real help here so I did. My apologies.
