Please fix the bug

[Sergio Durigan Junior (sergiodj)]

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

Unfortunately there is not enough information here to determine the root cause of the failure you're seeing. Some things caught my attention, though:

- The following line (from DpkgTerminalLog.txt):

info: Executing deferred 'a2enmod php7.4' for package libapache2-mod-php7.4

usually means that you tried to install libapache2-mod-php7.4 before but that an error happened during "apt install". After this line, we see:

ERROR: Module php7.4 does not exist!

which is self explanative. Maybe what happened is that you removed the php7.4 package after the error I mentioned above, but before re-running "apt install"? I don't know.

- These other two lines (from Apache2Modules.txt) are also interesting:

(98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80

If the server could not bind to the addresses above, it may mean that you already have another service bound to them. Maybe even another instance of apache2.

Could you please provide more information on what you were trying to do here? For example, what are you trying to install? What were the commands you used to install it?

Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or to
differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in Ubuntu, I
am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if you would:
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".

For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here:
