Apache won't configure

[cybiko123]

Hi. I'm trying to install ISPConfig, but the Apache installation (meaning the installation for built-in Apache) is giving me the following error:

Configuring for Apache, Version 1.3.39
+ Warning: Your 'echo' command is slightly broken.
+ It interprets escape sequences per default. We already
+ tried 'echo -E' but had no real success. If errors occur
+ please set the SEO variable in 'configure' manually to
+ the required 'echo' options, i.e. those which force your
+ 'echo' to not interpret escape sequences per default.
+ using installation path layout: Apache (config.layout)

ERROR: The PHP binary coming with ISPConfig does not work properly on your system! The installation routine stops here!

Normally I'd make the changes and be done with it, but there is nowhere to make the changes. Am I missing something?

Please run:

ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh

then unpack the installer tar.gz again and run setup. Some Ubuntu versions have a wrong symlink for /bin/sh ro /bin/dash which breaks many configure scripts, like the script from apache. I recommend that you have a look at the perfect setup guide for your ubuntu version, it is described there.
