The first thing I did was trying to install lamp server like below:
sudo tasksel install lamp-server. Then I entered the root password for mysql, after few mins the installation stopped at 72%(for very long time), It didn't recover at all. So I just closed the terminal. And when I went to System->administration->synaptic package manager, I came across this bug.

"This usually means that another package manager application(like apt-
get or aptitude) is already running. Please close the application
first."

This is first time I'm using jaunty, I wanted to work with jaunty. 
But I need apache,phpandmysql for my work. 
This bug came up while I was trying to do that.
