fails to start apache if module_setenvif is disabled

[Denis Hofmann]

Binary package hint: twiki

apache config :
syntax error on line 18 of /etc/apache2/conf.d/twiki.conf :
Invalid command 'BrowserMatchNoCase'....
I also tried with manul installation, same problem

ProblemType: Package
Architecture: i386
Date: Sat Aug 23 12:10:43 2008
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.04
ErrorMessage: le sous-processus post-installation script a retourné une erreur de sortie d'état 1
NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx
Package: twiki 1:4.1.2-3.1ubuntu1
PackageArchitecture: all
SourcePackage: twiki
Title: package twiki 1:4.1.2-3.1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: le sous-processus post-installation script a retourné une erreur de sortie d'état 1
Uname: Linux 2.6.24-19-generic i686

TEST CASE:
sudo apt-get install twiki
sudo rm /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/setenvif.load
sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 restart

Lastest Package Tested:
1:4.1.2-3.2ubuntu1

WORKAROUND:
sudo ln -sf ../mods-available/setenvif.conf /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/setenvif.conf
sudo ln -sf ../mods-available/setenvif.load /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/setenvif.load

NEXT STEP:
decide whether the BrowserMatchNoCase directives should be wrapped in <IfModule mod_setenvif.c /> tags.

This is because of the module setenvif not being enabled in your apache configuration.
You may be able to work around this issue by running the following commands:

cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/
sudo ln -sf ../mods-available/setenvif.load
sudo ln -sf ../mods-available/setenvif.conf

Many thanks for quick answer ! 2 minutes later it works.
It's a remaining lack for software installation : what is needed is
a configuration check up and default settings for sofware to install.
With regards,
Denis Hofmann
