@5car1z : I beg to differ. The “multiverse” lines are in fact commented out and the user just need to uncomment them in the apt repository. Once uncommented, user should run
Once updated, the user will be able to install mod-fastcgi for apache.
@akacar : Hope the above explanation is clear for your understanding! Also, can you confirm if you plan to use mod-fastcgi or mod-php? Your install statement includes “libapache2-mod-php5” as well as “libapache2-mod-fastcgi”. This is unusual and undesirable for a web-stack install because only one can be used at a time!
