I tried deleting those files in the /var/cache/apt/archives/ but I kept getting the same errors.

  • What command(s) are you using? Was a different version of apache already installed? – Nmath Nov 01 '21 at 17:37
  • Your output clearly says: Error processing package A. Trying to overwrite file F, which is also in package B. A and B conflict, and B is already installed. Either uninstall B (usually the smart choice), or else use apt's --force option to keep both packages. – user535733 Nov 01 '21 at 17:40
  • I cannot find the package B. I tried using find -iname *.cpanel – raminmasumov Nov 01 '21 at 17:51
