Long story short, I had to move a running bugzilla version from Windows into Ubuntu. I had the a fresh installation of bugzilla running yesterday, but when I tried to bring the data in, the css and scripts where not displaying the site correctly. I tried setting the owner and user of the files and directories, I found that apache was having rights issues. I tried getting help from bugzilla, but no one replied with the correct fix. I thought that if I remove apache and install it back, it would fix the security problems. Well, was I wrong...!
I have tried a good 4-5 times to,
sudo apt-get purge apache2 apache2-utils apache2.2-bin apache2-common
sudo apt-get autoremove
whereis apache2
and then used
sudo rm -rf /etc/apache2
on any directory that resulted from the whereis command. Now, I can not install apache2 on the system. Here is my last install try:
$ apt-get install --only-upgrade apache 2
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
apache2 is already the newest version (2.4.18-2ubuntu3.5).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 105 not upgraded.
$ sudo service apache2 restart
returns nothing.
software-installation apache2

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:

This is what I did to fix the problem:
apt-get remove apache2*
then followed by
apt-get install apache2

Can be done in one step:dpkg-query -Wf '$Status;1 $Packagen' 'apache2*' | sed -ne 's/^i //p' | xargs sudo apt-get install --reinstall

By the time I type that, those two commands above would have been completed. :-)
