Thread: Issues with installing Subversion

hi all,
having freshly installed ubuntu, tried install svn following steps user account (/home/myusername):

sudo apt-get install subversion libapache2-svn

sudo svnadmin create /svn

vi /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav_svn.conf uncommented "dav svn" , changed repository location "usr/lb/svn" "/svn". this, in retrospect, mistake.

tried : sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart , sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start both of them gave me weird "missing mpm package" error. happened while ago, can not give exact error message.

troubleshooting, visited site: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=526020

discovered missing apache2 directory in /etc, installed apache2 , php hand
sudo apt-get install apache2
sudo apt-get install php5
worked, when tried start apache2, kept getting multitude of errors.

decided start on over clean slate purge command: apt-get purge apache2. then, following instructions, tried remove apache2 directory remove traces of installation, when attempting use rm -r, told : descent write protected directory? said no.

stuck here, confused , feeling stupid, , computer in messed up, indeterminate state. how can remove i've done can start over?

appreciated.
