[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 1308047] Re: Installation of libapache2-mod-mono hangs

[TW.Bert]

AH, found out something. I found myself in a perpertual loop of `dpkg
--configure -a`.

If you have the same problem and it hangs, just execute in a different prompt:
/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
The postinst from the .deb will continue, and the install will complete succesfully.
This works in case of a hanging condition in `dpkg --configure -a` as well as a hanging condition with `apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono` (The first is Ctrl+C interruptable, the second isn't, but Ctrl+C does not solve the problem anyway).

Hope this helps, TW

Title:
  Installation of libapache2-mod-mono hangs

Status in “mod-mono” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using the latest daily build of Ubuntu 14.4 either server or desktop
  image installation of this package using apt-get ends with a hang.

  I followed the steps as documented here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ModMono
  They work fine on Ubuntu 12.4 but on 14.4 (daily build as of 4/15/2014) the system hangs while installing the package.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono
  2. The dependances get installed and this package too.
  3. The command hangs, Ctrl+C does not work.

  Expected:
  The command to finish gracefully

  Actual:
  The command hangs and the last message is:
   * Restarting web server apache2
