Hi,
I would like to upgrade apache version from 1.3.9-13.2 to
apache-dev_1.3.9-13.2 which allow me to used apxs command. I follow the
instruction on Release Notes for Debian GNU/Linux 2.2('potato'), Intelx86
Chapter 3 Upgrades from previous release
(http://www.debian.org/releases/2.2/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html).
Here is the setting in sources.list
------------------------------------------------------------------------
deb file:/var/ftp/debian potato main apache-dev_1.3.9-13.2.deb
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I stored the .deb file in :
/var/ftp/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/apache-dev.1.3.9-13.2.deb
A error message displayed :
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ign file: potato/main Release
Err file: potato/apache-dev_1.3.9-13.2.deb Packages
File not found

questions:
1) I suspect I make a mistake on the path setting. I have tried to amend
the directory path with few combination. Unfortunately it not work. Can
anyone help me on this ?
2) Can I upgrade apache from apache orginasation www.apache.org instead of
.deb file ??
3) May I know what is the command to check the version of debian that I am
using ?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
best regards,
Kennice
