ERROR: Could not configure Apache

During installation, if saw:
./configure:Error: APACI failed
ERROR: Could not configure Apache

Use following commands to fix it.

rm /bin/sh (or if you want to be safe: mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.dash)
ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

 

 

It is because Ubuntu developers have replaced Bash with Dash, so the regular /bin/sh that is used to be linked to /bin/bash is now pointing to /bin/dash.

 Open /usr/include/stdio.h and replace getline with parseline in line 653:

 

 

[...]
/* Like `getdelim', but reads up to a newline.

   This function is not part of POSIX and therefore no official
   cancellation point.  But due to similarity with an POSIX interface
   or due to the implementation it is a cancellation point and
   therefore not marked with __THROW.  */
