Re: [BackupPC-users] Backuppc CGI Interface not working for me

I fixed it.
I don't really understand what the issue was.
It could have been some misconfiguration in apache.
However, I did the "murder with intent" method of GNU/Linux.
Basically, I looked for the apache2 folder.
I erased that folder, which was /etc/apache2.
# rm -r /etc/apache2
>>From there, I looked on Google as to a way I could put that folder back
in. Yes, I'm using a weird logic for all of this.
http://www.debianhelp.org/node/2101
Afterwards, it pointed me to the package "apache2.2-common."
So, I decided to...
apt-get --purge remove apache2.2-common
Afterward, it removed apache, some other stuff, and backuppc.
Next, I made sure of something...
apt-get --purge remove backuppc
I don't remember anything going away...
next...
apt-get install backuppc
>>From there, it installed the apache dependencies again..
I seletected "apache" and "apache2" as options inside of the ncurses
screen.
I went to a browser...
http://127.0.0.1/backuppc
and things now work.
But at least the discussion here helped me figure out both parts were
some how connected. I kind of figured this once I used cat on various
files in /etc/backuppc and /etc/apache2. That led me to the idea to
remove the /etc/apache2 folder.
Done and done.
