[cobalt-developers] problem in upgrading Apache to 1.3.20

["Dhiraj Mighlani" <migs@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi -

I have a cobalt RaQ4i with all the required patches installed. I recently
tried to upgrade the new Apache patch which takes it to version 1.3.20
[RaQ4-All-Security-1.0.1-10602.pkg] and got the following error:

4015 Failed to patch apache configuration files: update failed
4015 Error in installation script upgrade_me

As I needed to upgrade my version of php and install tomcat, in the past I
have made some minor changes to the httpd.conf file .. but nothing major.
The site administration browser interface still works fine.

I would be extremely grateful if someone could help me identify the problem
and provide a solution as I am keen to upgrade my version of Apache,
apache-1.3.12-1C9 to 1.3.20.

I am also attaching extract from the /var/cobalt/adm.log file for further
information.
[Note in the log file:
Begin patching configuration files...
patching file `/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf'
can't find file to patch at input line 14
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? ]
