docker.io error when upgrading packages on linux mint - linux

So I have docker installed on Linux Mint 18.3 (dual-boot with Windows 7) and I can run and work with the containers without an issue. However, ever since I installed it, I keep getting errors while I try to upgrade my packages.

I removed docker and did a clean install, to no avail. I'm not really sure what to try next and I couldn't find a solution that works for me so far. Any help would be welcome!

There was a better solution (yours doesn't works for me):
Uninstall the module
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove libapache2-mod-fastcgi
Purge config/data
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove libapache2-mod-fastcgi
Then you can install the module
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-fastcgi

Can't remove, purge, unistall mongodb from debian

I'm trying to reinstall it, because it has problems. For example, I can't install Chromium because mongodb-org-server is not configured. But I can't even remove it for the same reason.
apt-get autoremove --purge mongodb
Or:
apt-get purge mongodb
Or:
apt-get remove --purge mongodb
All end in the same way:
dpkg: error processing package mongodb-org-server (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 102
Errors were encountered while processing:
mongodb-org-server
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Some data about my machine from hostnamectl:

Kernel: Linux 3.14-2-amd64
Architecture: x86_64
How can I fix this?

To avoid that sort of problems you should install software only from native Debian repositories. Unfortunately it is not unusual when sloppy/incompetent 3rd party packages are responsible for such troubles.
To recover try removing file /var/lib/dpkg/info/mongodb-org-server.postinst before attempting to apt-get purge mongodb.
Remove all mongodb file inside
/var/lib/dpkg/info/mongodb
And then do
sudo apt purge mongodb-org*

I really confused and don't know what's the problem. What should I do?
The error in your first command strongly suggest that the MongoDB server(/daemon) isn't installed. Try installing mongodb-server, then doing apt-get -f install to finish configuring any half installed packages.

This is a difficult state to get out of. You should be able to complete the removal if you create a fake init script:
sudo touch /etc/init.d/mongodb
sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/mongodb
This is due to some corruption within the package manager dpkg itself, this thread from Ask Ubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/questions/195950/package-system-broken-e-sub-process-usr-bin-dpkg-returned-an-error-code-1 lists some solutions, more specifically the editing of the status file has been noted as one that always works.
For mongodb v3.4
sudo touch /etc/init.d/mongod
sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/mongod
You can force installation of package:
sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/mongodb-org-tools_3.6.5_amd64.deb
Then resume with:
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo nano /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride
Then remove first 2 line entries and try again
**mongodb mongodb 755 /var/log/mongodb
mongodb mongodb 755 /var/lib/mongodb**
root crontab 2755 /usr/bin/crontab
root mlocate 2755 /usr/bin/mlocate
root ssl-cert 710 /etc/ssl/private
root messagebus 4754 /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
According to your question, this process will be break at line.
invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/mongodb not found.
You must be create fake file,
sudo touch /etc/init.d/mongodb
sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/mongodb
and process will complete.
