Hello,

From your logs I see:

info: Executing deferred 'a2enconf javascript-common' for package javascript-common
ERROR: Conf javascript-common does not exist!

This matches another bug reported recently for apache2. As such I will mark this as a duplicate. In the meantime you may be able to fix this issue by installing javascript-common then retrying the update:

sudo apt install javascript-common

If you have any additional information or if this fails please post to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/1986959
