Reinstall the apache2

[alfirdaous]

I tried to install the mod-evasiv from this link (http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/smb-technologist/secure-your-apache-server-from-ddos-slowloris-and-dns-injection-attacks/), then the apache2 does NOT work at all, it says:



env: apache2ctl: No such file or directory


I tried so many commands line to resolve it, but by the end I removed the apache2 then try to reinstall it:



# apt-get install apache2
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
apache2 is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
apache2 : Depends: apache2-mpm-worker (= 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.11) but it is not going to be installed or
apache2-mpm-prefork (= 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.11) but it is not going to be installed or
apache2-mpm-event (= 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.11) but it is not going to be installed or
apache2-mpm-itk (= 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.11) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: apache2.2-common (= 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.11) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).


Then as said to try the command apt-get -f install:

The service is not recognized:

How can I get back the apache2?

Thanks in advance

Looks like you messed up the packaging system; don't worry it can be fixed quite easily most of the time.
Clear out apt archives, lock, and partial files:

sudo rm -r /var/cache/apt/archives
Then update lists...

sudo apt update
and try uninstalling/reinstalling apache. You might need to edit your apt sources.list file. Have you added any extra repositories or are using the default ones only?

Go to /etc/apt/sources.list.d and identify the file from "ondrej" providing PHP. Disable it by renaming the file to have .disabled or some such on the end. Run "sudo apt-get update" and try again.

Frankly since 12.04 is only supported through next April, I'd upgrade to a newer release like 16.04 Server and see if that works better for you.

I will take the backup then run these command lines, thanks SeijiSensei (https://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=698195)
