Hi Alain,

From the log:
modified.conffile..etc.apache2.apache2.conf: [deleted]

TL;DR IMHO:
- apache was removed but not purged (the system leaves configurations to be the same on a reinstall)
- then the configs were manually removed
- the system can't differentiate that from any other configuation, like adding a parm
- therefore it will "hold" that config state
- on a re-install or upgrade it needs to start the service
- that fails due to the delted config files

You should tell your system that you want apache2 gone completely including config:
$ apt purge apache2

Afterwards a reinstall should work.

Thank you for your report.

This looks like a local configuration problem, rather than a bug in Ubuntu.

You can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community

Since we use this bug tracker to track bugs in Ubuntu, rather than configuration problems, I'm marking this bug as Invalid. This helps us to focus on fixing bugs in Ubuntu.

If you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New.

Hi,

Thanks for the response. Eventually got everything installed and working.
This was the last piece of my puzzle:
