Do you own a dedicated server running a Debian or the other Linux operating system distributions ? If Yes, then you need to be familiar with the command apt-get. People using Linux operating system distributions like ubuntu server edition should know such commands as these commands can help to create things easier.<\/p>\n
Apt-get could be a very usual command commonly used to install and uninstall softwares. Below is an example using the apt-get command :<\/p>\n
# apt-get install packagename<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Whenever a package or a software is installed on the server using the apt-get command, it holds default configuration files and once the package or software is in use it creates a distinct configuration file that has custom information. So as to create it suit your needs, you’ll change the configuration of that file manually. Most of the days, many things can occur wherever you might make a mistake and due to that the software can stop functioning. In such case, if you’ve have a deep information regarding the file, you’ll fix the issue within the configuration file. This is often the main reason why offsite backups are necessary whenever you make changes to any of your server files.<\/p>\n
In case, if your forget to backup your files or don\u2019t know to fix the issue, you’ll continuously reconfigure the package. Reconfiguring the installed debian package can restore the first configuration once the package was installed. To reconfigure the installed package simply enter the subsequent command:<\/p>\n
# dpkg-reconfigure packagename<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
By using the command as above can restore all the configuration settings. Once the restoration is completed the software installed on your web hosting server can start functioning properly but, the previous changes made to the configuration file will be lost.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
