apache2: could not open error log file /var/log/apache2/error.log

[MirisWisdom]

Latest Docker image fails on initialisation with the following error:

(13)Permission denied: AH00091: apache2: could not open error log file /var/log/apache2/error.log.

Admittedly, I haven't updated the Docker image in a while, so it's tricky to decide when this issue would've started appearing. Could 7af92fb have unintentionally introduced it?

No volumes are used for the container, and also made sure that the container has been cleared; however, sadly the error persists.

Tip: A quick hack for fixing this, is to set the APACHE_LOG_DIR value to something like /tmp/.

I started seeing this on the new package build for 2.6.0 based on 80b526b but there's nothing in this change that should have caused it. I'm looking into it now.

Beautiful -- all seems to be working now. Many thanks @eugene-davis for the quick fix!
