Thanks for your report.

The cause of the failure is
Preparing to replace cherokee 0.5.6-4 (using .../cherokee_0.7.2-4_i386.deb) ...
Stopping web server: cherokee No /usr/sbin/cherokee found running; none killed.
.
cp: cannot stat `/etc/cherokee/sites-enabled/default': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/cherokee_0.7.2-4_i386.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1

This is likely due to the migration script from 0.5 to 0.6 but debian says it's fixed in 0.7.2-4 in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=497420

Could you please attach the file /etc/cherokee/pre-0.6/0.6_migration.log ?
Could you please provide the output of the command
find /etc/cherokee -ls

Thanks.

Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

I ran into this bug when upgrading Debian etch to lenny. I got around it by commenting out the text in the "stop" option in the /etc/init.d/cherokee startup script. After that things went very smoothly. I realize this isn't a "Debian" list but I figured since Ubuntu is based on Debian and Alvaro gets pinged when this is updated that I would post here. Hopefully my comment saves someone a few minutes.

The fixed version from debian was synced a long time ago. Marking as fixed, let us know if you need an SRU
