| Changes with Apache 2.1.7 |
| [Remove entries to the current 2.0 section below, when backported] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: CAN-2005-2491 (cve.mitre.org): |
| Fix integer overflows in PCRE in quantifier parsing which could |
| be triggered by a local user through use of a carefully-crafted |
| regex in an .htaccess file. [Philip Hazel] |
| |
| *) mod_proxy/mod_proxy_balancer: Provide a simple, functional |
| interface to add additional balancer lb selection methods |
| without requiring code changes to mod_proxy/mod_proxy_balancer; |
| these can be implemented via sub-modules now. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) mod_cache: Fix incorrectly served 304 responses when expired cache |
| entity is valid, but cache is unwritable and headers cannot be |
| updated. [Colm MacCarthaigh <colm stdlib.net>] |
| |
| *) mod_cache: Remove entities from the cache when re-validation |
| receives a 404 or other content-no-longer-present error. |
| [Rüdiger Plüm ruediger.pluem vodafone.com] |
| |
| *) mod_disk_cache: Properly remove files from cache when needed. |
| [Rüdiger Plüm ruediger.pluem vodafone.com] |
| |
| *) mod_disk_cache: Support htcacheclean removing directories. |
| [Andreas Steinmetz] |
| |
| *) htcacheclean: Add -t option to remove empty directories. |
| [Colm MacCarthaigh <colm stdlib.net>] |
| |
| *) Remove the base href tag from mod_proxy_ftp, as it breaks relative |
| links for clients not using an Authorization header. [Graham Leggett, |
| Jon Snow <jsnow27 gatesec.net>] |
| |
| *) mod_cache: Restore the HTTP status of cached responses. |
| [Hansjoerg Pehofer <hansjoerg.pehofer uibk.ac.at>] |
| |
| *) mod_cache: Store varied contents all in the same prefix for a varied URI. |
| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) mod_cache: Run the CACHE_SAVE and CACHE_OUT Filters after other content |
| filters. [Paul Querna] |

| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) new hook (request_status) that gets ran in proxy_handler just before |
| the final return. This gives modules an opportunity to do something |
| based on the proxy status. (minor MMN bump) |
| [Brian Akins <bakins turner.com>, Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: CAN-2005-2088 |
| proxy: Correctly handle the Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length |
| headers. Discard the request Content-Length whenever T-E: chunked |
| is used, always passing one of either C-L or T-E: chunked whenever |
| the request includes a request body. Resolves an entire class of |
| proxy HTTP Request Splitting/Spoofing attacks. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Added TraceEnable [on|off|extended] per-server directive to alter |
| the behavior of the TRACE method. This addresses a flaw in proxy |
| conformance to RFC 2616 - previously the proxy server would accept |
| a TRACE request body although the RFC prohibited it. The default |
| remains 'TraceEnable on'. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Add additional SSLSessionCache option, 'nonenotnull', which is |
| similar to 'none' (disabling any external shared cache) but forces |
| OpenSSL to provide a non-null session ID. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Add httxt2dbm to support/ for creating RewriteMap DBM Files. |
| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) Add SSL_COMPRESS_METHOD variable (included in +StdEnvVars) to note |
| the negotiated compression. [Georg v. Zezschwitz <gvz 2scale.de>] |
| |
| *) Fixed complaints about unpackaged files within the RPM build |
| after changes to the config files. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fix shutdown for the Worker MPM when an Accept Filter is used. Instead of |
| just closing the socket, a HTTP request is made, to make sure the child is |
| always awakened. [Paul Querna] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.1.6 |
| |
| *) Fix htdbm password validation for records which included comments. |
| [Eric Covener <covener gmail.com>] |
| |
| *) mod_cgid: Fix buffer overflow processing ScriptSock directive. |
| [Steve Kemp <steve steve.org.uk>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.1.5 |
| |
| *) mod_ssl: Setting the Protocol to 'https' can replace the use of the |
| 'SSLEngine on' command. [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) core: Refactor the mapping of Accept Filters to Sockets. Add the |
| AcceptFilter and Protocol directives to aid in mapping filter types. |
| Extend the Listen directive to optionally take a protocol name. |
| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) mod_disk_cache: Support storing multiple variations of one URL. PR 35211. |
| [Paul Querna] |

| the default installation on Windows. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) core: Allow multiple modules to register interest in a single |
| configuration command. [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) EBCDIC: Handle chunked input from client or, with proxy, origin |
| server. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) authn_provider_alias: Adds the configuration block tag |
| <AuthnProviderAlias baseProvider Alias> |
| Authentication directives contained within this block can be |
| referenced as a new authProvider using the AuthBasicProvider or |
| AuthDigestProvider directive. These directives will be merged in to |
| the per_dir configuration just before the base provider is called. |
| [Brad Nicholes] |
| |
| *) ap_getword_conf: Fix backslashes at the end of configuration directives. |
| PR 34834. [Timo Viipuri <viipuri dlc.fi>] |
| |
| *) mod_dbd: New additions: mod_dbd.c, mod_dbd.h, mod_dbd.xml |
| Provide module hooks for apr_dbd; optimise for httpd |
| threaded and non-threaded arch [Nick Kew] |
| |
| *) ab: SSL support rewritten, improved, and enabled if SSL is enabled |
| during the build; -f and -Z arguments added to specify SSL protocol |
| options. [Masaoki Kobayashi <masaoki techfirm.co.jp>] |

| hook. [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) Add AP_INIT_TAKE_ARGV for configuration commands. (minor MMN bump) |
| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) ap_get_local_host() rewritten for APR. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Add the ap_vhost_iterate_given_conn function to expose the information |
| used in Name Based Virtual Hosting. (minor MMN bump) |
| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) Remove the never working ap_method_list_do and ap_method_list_vdo. |
| [Paul Querna] |
| |
| *) Added makefile and doc for building mod_ssl on the NetWare |
| platform. [Guenter Knauf, Brad Nicholes] |
| |
| *) mod_deflate: Merge the Vary header, isntead of Setting it. Fixes |
| applications that send the Vary Header themselves, and also apply |
| mod_deflate as an output filter. [Paul Querna] |

| conf/original/ directory during make install. |
| [Joshua Slive, Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) NetWare: Reposition mod_asis, mod_actions, mod_cgi, mod_imagemap, |

| take advantage of LDAP authorization only [PR 28253] |
| [Jari Ahonen jah progress.com, Brad Nicholes] |
| |
| *) Log the client IP address when an error occurs disabling nagle on a |

| the modules/experimental area and into modules/aaa with the other |
| auth modules. Both the authn_ldap provider and the authz_ldap |
| handler are contained within the authnz_ldap module. The |
| authz_ldap handler introduces 3 new "requires" values for handling |

| |
| *) Added proxy_ajp.c module for proxy support to ajp:// backends. |
| [Jean Frederic Clere] |
| |
| *) Fixes the build of proxy on Windows. Since the proxy_module is declared |
| as extern using AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA that expands to dllexport, there |

| |
| *) Remove LDAP toolkit specific code from util_ldap and mod_auth_ldap. |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |

| to enable Header and RequestHeader directives to be used to set up |
| testcases for pre-fixups request phases [Nick Kew] |
| |
| *) mod_proxy: multiple bugfixes, principally support cookies in |
| ProxyPassReverse, and don't canonicalise URL passed to backend. |
| Documentation correspondingly updated. [Nick Kew <nick webthing.com>] |
| |
| *) mod_deflate: support gzip flags in inflate_out_filter |
| [Nick Kew <nick webthing.com>] |
| |
| *) Drop the ErrorHeader directive which turned out to be a misnomer. |

| *) mod_deflate: Don't deflate responses with zero length |
| e.g. proxied 304's [Allan Edwards] |

| [Ken Coar, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) External rewrite map responses are no longer limited to 2048 |
| bytes. [André Malo] |
| |

| assigned if the origin server had set any cookies. PR 27023. |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Removed old and unmaintained ap_add_named_module API and changed |

| stack size for threads which handle client connections. Required |
| for some third-party modules on platforms with small default |
| thread stack size. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) minor mod_auth_basic and mod_auth_digest sync. mod_auth_basic |

| [André Malo <nd perlig.de>] |
| |
| *) mod_autoindex: AddDescription directives for directories |
| now work as in Apache 1.3, where no trailing '/' is |
| specified on the directory name. Previously, the trailing |
| '/' *had* to be specified, which was incompatible with |
| Apache 1.3. PR 7990 [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix for PR 14556. The expiry calculations in mod_cache were |
| trying to perform "now + ((date - lastmod) * factor)" where |
| date == lastmod resulting in "now + 0". The code now follows |
| the else path (using the default expiration) if date is |
| equal to lastmod. [Sergey <rx armstrike.com>, Paul J. Reder] |

| |
| *) This fixes a problem where the underlying cache code |
| indicated that there was one more element on the cache |
| than there actually was. This happened since element 0 |
| exists but is not used. This code allocates the correct |

| |
| *) Added code to process min and max file size directives and to |

| |
| *) Change the CacheRoot processing to check for a required |
| value at config time. This saves a lot of wasted processing |
| if the mod_disk_cache module is loaded but no CacheRoot |
| was provided. This fix also adds code to log an error |
| and avoid useless pallocs and procesing when the computed |
| cache file name cannot be opened. This also updates the |

| HTML-escape the address produced by ap_server_signature() against |
| this cross-site scripting vulnerability exposed by the directive |
| 'UseCanonicalName Off'. Also HTML-escape the SERVER_NAME |

| |
| *) The content-length filter no longer tries to buffer up |
| the entire output of a long-running request before sending |
| anything to the client. [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Win32: Lower the default stack size from 1MB to 256K. This will |

| aside a small file for potential concatenation with the next |
| response on the connection, set aside the file descriptor rather |
| than copying the file into the heap. [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Modified version check on openssl so that it finds the executable |
| first and then performs a check of the version, only warning the |
| user if they chose, or we selected, an old version of OpenSSL. |
| This change also allows the code to work for non-openssl libraries |

| |
| *) Replace usage of atol() to parse strings when we might want a |
| larger-than-long value with apr_atoll(), which returns long long. |
| This allows HTTPD to deal with larger files correctly. |
| [Shantonu Sen <ssen apple.com>] |
| |
| *) mod_ext_filter: Ignore any content-type parameters when checking if |
| the response should be filtered. Previously, "intype=text/html" |

| |
| *) Performance improvements for the code that reads request |

| |
| *) Add a new directive: MaxMemFree. MaxMemFree makes it possible |
| to configure the maximum amount of memory the allocators will |
| hold on to for reuse. Anything over the MaxMemFree threshold |
| will be free()d. This directive is useful when uncommon large |
| peaks occur in memory usage. It should _not_ be used to mask |
| defective modules' memory use. [Sander Striker] |
| |
| *) Fixed the Content-Length filter so that HTTP/1.0 requests to CGI |
| scripts would not result in a truncated response. |
| [Ryan Bloom, Justin Erenkrantz, Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Add a filter_init parameter to the filter registration functions |
| so that a filter can execute arbitrary code before the handlers |
| are invoked. This resolves a problem where mod_include requests |
| would incorrectly return a 304. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fix a long-standing bug in 2.0, CGI scripts were being called |
| with relative paths instead of absolute paths. Apache 1.3 used |
| absolute paths for everything except for SuExec, this brings back |
| that standard. [Ryan Bloom] |

| [Perry Harrington <pedward webcom.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix WinNT cgi 500 errors when QUERY_ARGS or other strings include |
| extended characters (non US-ASCII) in non-utf8 format. This brings |

| [Jean-frederic Clere <jfrederic.clere fujitsu-siemens.com>] |
| |
| *) Make the default_handler catch all requests that aren't served by |

| loaded. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fixed the handling of nested if-statements in shtml files. |
| PR 9866 [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Allow 'make install DESTDIR=/path'. This allows packagers to install |
| into a directory different from the one that was configured. This |
| also mirrors the root= feature from 1.3. We cannot use prefix=, |
| because both APR and APR-util resolve their installation paths at |
| configuration time. This means that there is no variable prefix |
| to replace. [Andreas Hasenack <andreas netbank.com.br>] |
| |
| *) AIX 4.3.2 and above: Define SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT. |
| These levels of AIX don't have a thundering herd problem with |
| accept(). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) prefork MPM: Ignore mutex errors during graceful restart. For |
| certain types of mutexes (particularly SysV semaphores), we |
| should expect to occasionally fail to obtain or release the |
| mutex during restart processing. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix install-bindist.sh so that it finds any perl instead of just |
| early perl 5.x versions. This is consistent with a build/install |
| from source, and it allows the perl scripts installed by a bindist |
| to work on systems with perl 5.6. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix apxs so that the makefile created by "apxs -g" works on AIX and |
| Tru64 (and probably some other platforms). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Allow CGI scripts to return their Content-Length. This also fixes a |

| |
| *) Remove all special mod_ssl URIs. This also fixes the bug where |
| redirecting (.*) will allow an SSL protected page to be viewed |

| *) Performance: implemented the bucket allocator made possible by the |
| API change in 2.0.34. [Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Don't allow initialization to succeed if we can't get a socket |
| corresponding to one of the Listen statements. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.34 |
| |
| *) Allow all Perchild directives to accept either numerical UID/GID |
| or logical user/group names. [Scott Lamb <slamb slamb.org>] |
| |
| *) Make Perchild compile cleanly and serve pages again. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) implement ssl proxy to support ProxyPass / https:// and the |
| SSLProxy* directives [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Update mod_cgid to not do single-byte socket reads for CGI headers |
| [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Made AB's use of the Host: header rfc2616 compliant |
| by Taisuke Yamada <tai iij.ad.jp> [Dirk-Willem van Gulik]. |
| |
| *) The old, legacy (and unused) code in which the scoreboard was totally |
| and completely contained in a file (SCOREBOARD_FILE) has been |
| removed. This does not affect scoreboards which are *mapped* to |
| files using named-shared-memory. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Change bucket brigades API to allow a "bucket allocator" to be |
| passed in at certain points. This allows us to implement freelists |
| so that we can stop using malloc/free so frequently. |
| [Cliff Woolley, Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Add support for macro expansion within the variable names in |
| <!--#echo--> and <!--#set--> directives [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Fix some mod_include segfaults [Cliff Woolley, Brian Pane, Brad Nicholes] |
| |
| *) Update the "RedHat" Layout to match Red Hat Linux version 7. PR BZ-7422 |
| [Joe Orton] |
| |
| *) add compat layer to support RSA SSLC 1.x and 2.x in mod_ssl |
| [Jon Travis, John Barbee, William Rowe, Ryan Bloom, Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Add a new parameter to the quick_handler hook to instruct |
| quick handlers to optionally do a lookup rather than actually |
| serve content. This is the first of several changes required fix |
| several problems with how quick handlers work with subrequests. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) worker MPM: Get MaxRequestsPerChild to work again. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) [APR-related] The ordering of the default accept mutex method has |
| been changed to better match what's done in Apache 1.3. The ordering |
| is now (highest to lowest): pthread -> sysvsem -> fcntl -> flock. |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Ensure that the build/ directory is created when using VPATH. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Add some popular types to the mime magic file. PR 7730. |
| [Linus Walleij <triad df.lth.se>, Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Remove the single-byte socket reads for CGI headers [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) When a proxied site was being served, Apache was replacing |
| the original site Server header with it's own, which is not |
| allowed by RFC2616. Fixed. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fix a mod_cgid problem that left daemon processes stranded |
| in some server restart scenarios. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Added exp_foo and rel_foo variables to config_vars.mk for |
| all Apache and Autoconf path variables (like --sysconfdir, |
| --sbindir, etc). exp_foo is the "expanded" version, which means |
| that all internal variable references have been interpolated. |
| rel_foo is the same as $exp_foo, only relative to $prefix if they |
| share a common path. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Fix some restart/terminate problems in the worker MPM. Don't |
| drop connections during graceful restart. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Change the header merging behaviour in proxy, as some headers |
| (like Set-Cookie) cannot be unmerged due to stray commas in |
| dates. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Be more vocal about what AcceptMutex values we allow, to make |
| us closer to how 1.3 does it. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Get nph- CGI scripts working again. PRs 8902, 8907, 9983 |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Upgraded PCRE library to latest version 3.9 [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Add accessor function to set r->content_type. From now on, |
| ap_rset_content_type() should be used to set r->content_type. |
| This change is required to properly implement the |
| AddOutputFilterByType configuration directive. |
| [Bill Stoddard, Sander Striker, Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add new M_FOO symbols for the WebDAV/DeltaV methods specified by |
| RFC 3253. Improved the method name/number mapping functions. |
| [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) remove sock_enable_linger from connection.c [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) Fix for virtual host processing where the requested hostname |
| has a '.' at the end (PR 9187) [Ryan Cruse <ryan estara.com>] |
| |
| *) mod_dav's APIs for REPORT response handling was changed so that |
| providers can generate the content directly into the output filter |
| stack, rather than buffering the response into memory. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Fix a hang condition with graceful restart and prefork MPM |
| in the situation where MaxClients is very high but |
| much fewer servers are actually started at the time of the |
| restart. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Small performance fixes for mod_include [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Performance improvement for the error logger [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Change configure so that Solaris 8 and above have |
| SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT defined by default. |
| according to sun people solaris 8+ doesn't have a thundering |
| herd problem [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) Allow URIs specifying CGI scripts to include '/' at the end |
| (e.g., /cgi-bin/printenv/) on AIX and Solaris (and other OSs |
| which ignore '/' at the end of the names of non-directories). |
| PR 10138 [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) implement SSLSessionCache shmht and shmcb based on apr_rmm and |
| apr_shm. [Madhusudan Mathihalli <madhusudan_mathihalli hp.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix apxs -g handling. Move config_vars.mk from the top build |
| directory to the build directory. PR 10163 [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix some mod_include problems which broke evaluation of some |
| expressions. PR 10108 [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix the calculation of request time in mod_status. [Stas Bekman] |
| |
| *) Fix the calculation of thread_num in the worker score structure. |
| [Stas Bekman] |
| |
| *) Use apr_atomic operations in managing the mod_mem_cache |
| cache_objects for SMP scalability. (see USE_ATOMICS |
| preprocessor directive in mod_file_cache) |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Add filehandle caching to mod_mem_cache. (see CACHE_FD |
| preprocessor directive in mod_file_cache) |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Implement prototype mod_disk_cache for use with mod_cache. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Add a missing manualdir entry in the Debian config.layout. |
| [Thom May <thom planetarytramp.net>] |
| |
| *) Stop installing libtool for APR and tell APR where it should place |
| its copy of libtool (via our installbuildpath layout variable). |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) New directive ProxyIOBufferSize. Sets the size of the buffer used |
| when reading from a remote HTTP server in proxy. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Modify receive/send loop in proxy_http and proxy_ftp so that |
| should it be necessary, the remote server socket is closed before |
| transmitting the last buffer (set by ProxyIOBufferSize) to the |
| client. This prevents the backend server from being forced to hang |
| around while the last few bytes are transmitted to a slow client. |
| Fix the case where no error checking was performed on the final |
| brigade in the loop. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Scrap CacheMaxExpireMin and CacheDefaultExpireMin. Change |
| CacheMaxExpire and CacheDefaultExpire to use seconds rather than |
| hours. [Graham Leggett, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) New Directive SSIUndefinedEcho. to change the '(none)' echoed |
| for a undefined variable. [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) Proxy HTTP and CONNECT: Keep trying other addresses from the DNS |
| when we can't get a socket in the specified address family. We may |
| have gotten back an IPv6 address first and yet our system is not |
| configured to allow IPv6 sockets. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Be more careful about recursively removing CVS directories. Make |
| sure that we aren't cd'ing to their home directory first. PR: 9993 |
| [Aaron Bannert, James LewisMoss <dres lewismoss.net>] |
| |
| *) Add a missing errordir entry in the Debian config.layout. PR: 10067 |
| [Dirk-Jan Faber <dirk-jan selwerd.nl>, Aaron Bannert, |
| Thom May <thom planetarytramp.net>] |
| |
| *) Rename the filter ordering priorities. The recent filtering fixes |
| have showcased problems with their usage. Therefore, we need to |
| rename them to increase the clarity. (CONTENT->RESOURCE, |
| HTTP_HEADER->CONTENT_SET/PROTOCOL) [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.33 |
| |
| *) Fix a problem in the new --enable-layout functionality where |
| it wouldn't allow overrides from variables like --prefix, |
| --bindir, etc. [Thom May <thom planetarytramp.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug in the core input filter for AP_MODE_EXHAUSTIVE. It |
| no longer hangs around waiting for the socket to close before |
| returning exhaustive data. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) rename apr_exploded_time_t to apr_time_exp_t (as per renames pending) |
| [Thom May <thom planetarytramp.net>] |
| |
| *) Change mod_ssl to always do a full startup/teardown on restarts. |
| this allows mod_ssl to be added to a server that is already |
| running and makes it possible to add/change certs/keys after the |
| server has been started. [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Introduce PassPhraseDialog "|/path/to/pipe" mechanism to mod_ssl. |
| This pipe must be a bidirectional 'console' style relay, which |
| mod_ssl prints all prompts to the pipe's stdin, and reads the |
| passphrases from the pipe's stdout. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix bug where --sysconfdir and --localstatedir were being |
| ignored. [Thom May <thom planetarytramp.net>, Aaron Bannert] |
| PR 9888 |
| |
| *) Fix --enable-layout to work again. Caution: When specifying |
| --enable-layout, common arguments like --prefix, --exec-prefix, |
| etc. will be ignored and the settings from the layout will be |
| used instead. [Thom May <thom planetarytramp.net>, Aaron Bannert] |
| PR 9124, 9873, 9885 |
| |
| *) New Directive for mod_proxy: ProxyRemoteMatch. This provides |
| regex pattern matching for the determination of which requests |
| to use the remote proxy for. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Fix CustomLog bytes-sent with HTTP 0.9. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Prevent Apache from ignoring SIGHUP due to some lingering 1.3 |
| cruft in piped logs and rewritemap child processes. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) All instances of apr_lock_t have been removed and converted |
| to one of the following new lock APIs: apr_thread_mutex.h, |
| apr_proc_mutex.h, or apr_global_mutex.h. No new code should |
| use the apr_lock.h API, as the old API will soon be deprecated. |
| [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Merged in changes to mod_ssl up through 2.8.7-1.3.23. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall, Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) mod-include: make it handle flush'es and fix the 'false-alarm' |
| [Justin Erenkrantz, Brian Pane, Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) ap_get_*_filter_handle() functions to allow 3rd party modules |
| to lookup filter handles so they can bypass the filter name |
| lookup when adding filters to a request (via ap_add_*_filter_handle()) |
| [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix for multiple file buckets on Win32, where the first file |
| bucket would cause the immediate closure of the socket on any |
| non-keepalive requests. [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Correct Win32 failure of mmap of a segment beyond start of the |
| file; fixes large SSL and similar transfers. [William Rowe] |
| PR 9898 |
| |
| *) Implement apr_proc_detach changes and allow -DNO_DETACH in the |
| multi-process mode to not "daemonize" while detaching from the |
| controlling terminal. This is necessary for Apache to work with |
| process-management tools like AIX's "System Resource Controller" |
| as well as Dan Bernstein's "daemontools". |
| [Jos Backus <josb cncdsl.com>, Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Convert mod_auth_digest to use the new apr_global_mutex_t |
| type. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) fix bug in mod-include where it wouldn't send a unmatched |
| part if it was at the end of a bucket [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) worker MPM: Improve logging of errors with the interface between |
| the listener thread and worker threads. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Some browsers ignore cookies that have been merged into a |
| single Set-Cookie header. Set-Cookie and Set-Cookie2 headers |
| are now unmerged in the http proxy before being sent to the |
| client. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fix a problem with proxy where each entry of a duplicated |
| header such as Set-Cookie would overwrite and obliterate the |
| previous value of the header, resulting in multiple header |
| values (like cookies) going missing. |
| [Graham Leggett, Joshua Slive] |
| |
| *) Add the server-limit and thread-limit values to the scoreboard |
| for the sake of third-party applications. |
| [Adam Sussman <myddryn vishnu.vidya.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix segfault when proxy recieves an invalid HTTP response [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) OS/390: Get make install to properly copy DSO modules. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Win32: Fix bug in mod_status with displaying "Restart Time" |
| and "Server uptime". |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix IPv6 name-based virtual hosts. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Introduce AddOutputFilterByType directive. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fix DEBUG_CGI support in mod_cgi. PR 9670, 9671. |
| [David MacKenzie <djm pix.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix incorrect check for script_in in mod_cgi. PR 9669. |
| [David MacKenzie <djm pix.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix segfault and display error when SSLMutex file can not be |
| created. [Adam Sussman <myddryn vishnu.vidya.com>] |
| |
| *) Add reference counting to mod_mem_cache cache objects to |
| better manage removing objects from the cache. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Change the verbage on the ScoreBoardFile in our default configs. |
| Also change the default to be commented out (unspecified) so we |
| get anonymous shared memory by default. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Implement new ScoreBoardFile directive logic. This affects how |
| we create the scoreboard's shared memory segment. If the directive |
| is present, a name-based segment is created. If the directive is |
| not present, first an anonymous segment is created, and if that |
| fails, a name-based segment is created from a file of the name |
| DEFAULT_SCOREBOARD. This gives third-party applications the |
| ability to access our scoreboard. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Allow mod_deflate to work with non-GET requests and properly send |
| Content-Lengths. [Sander Striker <striker apache.org>] |
| |
| *) Fix ap_directory_merge() to correctly merge configs when there is |
| no <Directory /> block. [Justin Erenkrantz, William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Remove spurious debug messsages that are normal under HTTP |
| keep-alive logic. [Jeff Trawick, Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug in mod_cgid that would prevent proper shutdown death |
| of the cgid process. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Add signal handling back in to the worker MPM for the one_process |
| (-X, -DDEBUG, -DONE_PROCESS) case. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Performance: Reuse per-connection transaction pools in the |
| worker MPM, rather than destroying and recreating them. [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Remove all signals from the worker MPM's child process. Instead, |
| the parent uses the Pipe of Death for all communication with the |
| child processes. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.32 |
| |
| *) mod_negotiation: ForceLanguagePriority now uses 'Prefer' as the |
| default if the directive is not specified. This mirrors older |
| behavior without changes to the httpd.conf. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Win32: solve the win32 service problems in 2.0.31-alpha, by fixing |
| the service, mpm and logging code, and bugs in apr_file_open_stderr |
| and apr_file_dup2 functions. Win2K/XP services have no handles |
| associated for stdin/out/err, which caused unpredictable behavior |
| in the prior release. [William Rowe, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Win32: simplify the Application Event Log messages, since there isn't |
| likely to be 'more information in the error log' before an error log |
| has been opened. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Win32: substantial cleanup to the mpm_winnt code for legibility and |
| to follow the program flow of other MPMs. [Ryan Bloom, William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Win32: apache -k shutdown now behaves like apache -k stop. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix prefork to not kill the parent if a child hits a resource shortage |
| on accept(). [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Fix seg faults that occur when what should be the httpd request line |
| starts with \r\n followed by garbage. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Allow statically linked support binaries with the new |
| --enable-static-support flag, and enable this behavior in |
| the binbuild script. Also add a new --enable-static-htdbm |
| flag. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Allow mod_autoindex to serve symlinks if permitted and attempt to |
| do only one stat() call when generating the directory listings. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fix resolve_symlink to save the original symlink name if known. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Be a bit more sane with regard to CanonicalNames. If the user has |
| specified they want to use the CanonicalName, but they have not |
| configured a port with the ServerName, then use the same port that |
| the original request used. [Ryan Bloom and Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) In core_input_filter, check for an empty brigade after |
| APR_BRIGADE_NORMALIZE(). Otherwise, we can get segfaults if a |
| client says it will post some data but we get FIN before any |
| data arrives. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Not being able to bind to the socket is a fatal error. We should |
| print an error to the console, and return a non-zero status code. |
| With these changes, all of the Unix MPMs do that correctly. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) suexec: Allow HTTPS and SSL_* environment variables to be passed |
| through to CGI scripts. PR 9163 |
| [Brian Reid <breid customlogic.com>, |
| Zvi Har'El <rl math.technion.ac.il>] |
| |
| *) binbuild.sh: Make sure that we use the expat from our source |
| tree so that there aren't any surprises on the target machine. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) mod_cgid: Add retry logic for when the daemon can't fork fast |
| enough to keep up with new requests. Start using |
| HTTP_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE instead of HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR |
| when we can't talk to the daemon. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) apxs: LTFLAGS envvar can override default libtool options. Try |
| "LTFLAGS=' ' apxs -c mod_foo.c" to see what libtool does under |
| the covers. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) The Location: response header field, used for external |
| redirect, *must* be an absoluteURI. The Redirect directive |
| tested for that, but RedirectMatch didn't -- it would allow |
| almost anything through. Now it will try to turn an abs_path |
| into an absoluteURI, but it will correctly varf like Redirect |
| if the final redirection target isn't an absoluteURI. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.31 |
| |
| *) Create the scoreboard (in the parent) in a global pool context, |
| so it survives graceful restarts. This fixes a SEGV during |
| graceful restarts. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Add a timeout option to the proxy code 'ProxyTimeout' |
| [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) FTP directory listings are now always retrieved in ASCII mode. |
| The FTP proxy properly escapes URI's and HTML in the generated |
| listing, and escapes the path components when talking to the FTP |
| server. It is now possible to browse the root directory by using |
| a url like: ftp://user@host/%2f/ (ported from apache_1.3.24) |
| Also, the last path component may contain wildcard characters |
| '*' and '?', and if they do, a directory listing is created instead |
| of a file retrieval. Example: ftp://user@host/httpd/server/*.c |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Added single-listener unserialized accept support to the |
| worker MPM [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) New Directive for mod_proxy: 'ProxyPreserveHost'. This passes |
| the incoming host header through to the proxied server |
| [Geoff <g.russell ieee.org>] |
| |
| *) New Directive Option for ProxyPass. It now can block a location |
| from being proxied [Jukka Pihl <jukka.pihl entirem.com>] |
| |
| *) Don't let the default handler try to serve a raw directory. At |
| best you get gibberish. Much worse things can happen depending |
| on the OS. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Change the pre_config hook to return a value. Modules can now emit |
| an error message and then cause the server to quit gracefully during |
| startup. This required a bump to the MMN. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Fix some unix socket descriptor leaks in the handler side of |
| mod_cgid (the part that runs in the server process). Whack a |
| silly "close(-1)" in the handler too. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Change the pre_mpm hook to return a value, so that scoreboard |
| init errors percolate up to code that knows how to exit |
| cleanly. This required a bump to the MMN. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add the socket back to the conn_rec and remove the create_connection |
| hook. The create_connection hook had a design flaw that did not |
| allow creating connections based on vhost info. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fixed PATH_INFO and QUERY_STRING from mod_negotiation results. |
| Resolves the common case of using negotation to resolve the request |
| /script/foo for /script.cgi/foo. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Added new functions ap_add_(input|output)_filter_handle to |
| allow modules to bypass the usual filter name lookup when |
| adding hard-coded filters to a request [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) caching should now work on subrequests (still very experimental) |
| [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) The Win32 mpm_winnt now has a shared scoreboard. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Change ap_get_brigade prototype to use apr_off_t instead of apr_off_t*. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Refactor ap_rgetline so that it does not use an internal brigade. |
| Change ap_rgetline's prototype to return errors. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Remove mod_auth_db. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Do not install unnecessary pcre headers like config.h and internal.h. |
| [Joe Orton <joe manyfish.co.uk>] |
| |
| *) Change in quick_hanlder behavior for subrequests. it now passes DONE |
| (as it does for a normal request). quick_handled sub-requests now work |
| in mod-include [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) Change SUBREQ_CORE so that it is a 'HTTP_HEADER' filter instead of |
| 'CONTENT' one, as it needs to run AFTER all content headers |
| |
| *) Rename BeOS MPM directive RequestsPerThread to MaxRequestsPerThread. |
| [Lars Eilebrecht] |
| |
| *) Split out blocking from the mode in the input filters. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault in mod_include. [Justin Erenkrantz, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Cause Win32 to capture all child-worker process errors in |
| Apache to the main server error log, until the child can |
| open its own error logs. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) HPUX 11.*: Do not kill the child process when accept() |
| returns ENOBUFS on HPUX 11.*. (ported from th 1.3 patch) |
| [Madhusudan Mathihalli <madhusudan_mathihalli hp.com>, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix a problem in the parsing of the <Proxy foo> directive. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) rewrite of mod_ssl input filter for better performance and less |
| memory usage [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) allow quick_handler to be run on subrequests. [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) mod_dav now asks its provider to place content directly into the |
| filter stack when handling a GET request. The mod_dav/provider |
| API has changed, so providers need to be updated. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Clear the output socket descriptor in unixd_accept() to make sure |
| we don't supply a bogus socket to the caller if the accept fails. |
| This caused problems with the worker MPM, which tried to process |
| the returned socket if it was non-NULL. [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Move a check for an empty brigade to the start of core input filter |
| to avoid segfaults. [Justin Erenkrantz, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add FileETag directive to allow configurable control of what |
| data are used to form ETag values for file-based URIs. MMN |
| bumped to 20020111 because of fields added to the end of |
| the core_dir_config structure. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault in mod_rewrite's logging code caused by passing the |
| wrong config to ap_get_remote_host(). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Allow mod_cgid to work from a binary distribution install by |
| using 755 for the permissions on the log directory instead of |
| 750. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fixed a segfault that happened during graceful shutdown (or when |
| the httpd ran out of file descriptors) with the worker MPM [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Split all Win32 modules [excluding the core components mod_core, |
| mod_so, mod_win32 and the winnt mpm] into individual loadable |
| modules, so the administrator may individually disable the former |
| compiled-in modules by simply commenting out their LoadModule |
| directives. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Saved Win32 module authors and porters many future headaches, by |
| duplicating the appropriate .h files such as os.h into the include |
| directory, including in the build tree. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) mod_ssl adjustments to help with using toolkits other than OpenSSL: |

| (2) Proxy failed to connect when the first IP address returned by |
| the resolver was unreachable but a secondary IP address was. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |

| if oslevel < WINNT. This should fix several problems reported |
| Against 2.0.28 on Windows 98 [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Win32: Fix bug that could cause CGI scripts with QUERY_STRINGS |
| to fail. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Change core code to allow an MPM to set hard thread/server |
| limits at startup. prefork, worker, and perchild MPMs now have |
| directives to set these limits. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Win32: The async AcceptEx() event should be autoreset upon |
| successful completion of a wait (WaitForSingleObject). This |
| eliminates a number of spurious |
| setsockopt(SO_UPDATE_ACCEPT_CONTEXT) failed." messages. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Move any load library path environment variables out of |
| apachectl and into a separate environment variable file which |
| can be more easily tailored by the admin. The environment |
| variable file as built by Apache may have additional system- |
| specific settings. For example, on OS/390 we tailor the heap |
| settings to allow lots of threads. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Use the new APR pool code to reduce pool-related lock |
| contention in the worker MPM. [Sander Striker] |
| |
| *) The POD no longer assumes the child is listening on 127.0.0.1 |
| and now pulls the first hostname in the list of listeners to |
| perform the dummy connect on. This fixes a bug when the user |
| had configured the Listen directive for an IP other than |
| 127.0.0.1. This would result in undead children and error |
| messages such as "Connection refused: connect to listener". |
| [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) The worker MPM now respects the LockFile setting, needed to |
| avoid locking problems with NFS. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix segfault when worker MPM receives SIGHUP. |
| [Ian Holsman, Aaron Bannert, Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |

| working with more than one vhost/uid. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Change make install and apxs -i processing of DSO modules to |
| perform special handling on platforms where libtool doesn't install |
| mod_foo.so. This fixes some wonkiness on HP-UX, Tru64, and AIX |
| which prevented standard LoadModule statements from working. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Whenever mod_so is enabled (not just when there are DSOs for |
| our modules), do whatever special magic is required for compiling/ |
| loading third-party modules. This allows third-party DSOs to |
| be used on an AIX build when there were no built-in modules |
| built as DSOs. (This should help on OS/390 and BeOS as well.) |
| [Jeff Trawick] |

| |
| *) Fix the cmd command for mod_include. When we are processing |
| a cmd command, we do not want to use the r->filename to set |
| the command name. The command comes from the SSI tag. To do this, |
| I added a variable to the function that builds the command line |

| *) APR-ize the resolver logic in mod_unique_id. This fixes a bug |
| in logging the error from a failed DNS lookup. [Jeff Trawick] |

| *) Added the missing macros AP_INIT_TAKE13 and AP_INIT_TAKE123. |
| [Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Get mod_cgid killed when a MPM exits due to a fatal error. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix a file descriptor leak in mod_include. When we include a |
| file, we use a sub-request, but we didn't destroy the sub-request |
| immediately, instead we waited until the original request was |
| done. This patch closes the sub-request as soon as the data is |
| done being generated. [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Allow modules that add sockets to the ap_listeners list to |
| define the function that should be used to accept on that |
| socket. Each MPM can define their own function to use for |
| the accept function with the MPM_ACCEPT_FUNC macro. This |
| also abstracts out all of the Unix accept error handling |
| logic, which has become out of synch across Unix MPMs. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug which would cause the response headers to be omitted |
| when sending a negotiated ErrorDocument because the required |
| filters were attached to the wrong request_rec. |
| [John Sterling <sterling covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Remove commas from the end of the macros that define |
| directives that are used by MPMs. Prior to this patch, |
| you would use these macros without commas, which was unlike |
| the macros for any other directives. Now, the caller provides |
| the comma rather than the macro providing it. This makes |
| the macros look more like the rest of the directives. |
| [Ryan Bloom and Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Add 'redirect-carefully' environment option to disable sending |
| redirects under special circumstances. This is helpful for |
| Microsoft's WebFolders when accessing a directory resource via |
| DAV methods. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Begin to abstract out the underlying transport layer. |
| The first step is to remove the socket from the conn_rec, |
| the server now lives in a context that is passed to the |
| core's input and output filters. This forces us to be very |
| careful when adding calls that use the socket directly, |
| because the socket isn't available in most locations. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Really reset the MaxClients value in worker and threaded |
| when the configured value is not a multiple of the number |
| of threads per child. We said we did previously but we |

| |
| *) Fix infinite loop in mod_cgid.c. |
| [Dale Ghent <daleg elemental.org>, Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) When no port is given in a "ServerName host" directive, the |
| server_rec->port is now set to zero, not 80. That allows for |
| run-time deduction of the correct server port (depending on |
| SSL/plain, and depending also on the current setting of |
| UseCanonicalName). This change makes redirections |
| work, even with https:// connections. As in Apache-1.3, the |
| connection's actual port number is never used, only the ServerName |
| setting or the client's Host: setting. Documentation updated |
| to reflect the change. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Add a '%{note-name}e' argument to mod-headers, which works in |
| the same way as mod_log_confg. [Ian Holsman] |
| |
| *) Fix the spelling of the AP_MPMQ_MIN_SPARE_DAEMONS and |
| AP_MPMQ_MAX_REQUESTS_DAEMON macros in ap_mpm.h and all standard |
| MPMs. [Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Introduce htdbm, a user management utility for db/dbm authorization |
| databases. [Mladen Turk <mturk mappingsoft.com>] |
| |
| *) Optimize usage of strlen and strcat in ap_directory_walk. |
| [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.27 |
| |
| *) Introduce an Apache mod_ssl initial configuration template |
| (ssl.conf, generated from ssl-std.conf). [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fixed a memory leak in the getline parsing code that could |
| be triggered by arbitrarily large header lines. Requests |
| from the core input filter for single lines are now limited |
| to HUGE_STRING_LEN (8192 bytes). [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Fix a truncation bug in how we print the port on the Via: header. |
| The routine that prints the Via: header now takes a length for |
| the port string. [Zvi Har'El <rl math.technion.ac.il>] |
| |
| *) Some syntax errors in mod_mime_magic's magic file can result |
| in a 500 error, which previously was unlogged. Now we log the |
| error. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add the support/checkgid helper app, which checks the run-time |
| validity of group identifiers usable in the Group directive. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Various --enable-so options have been fixed: --enable-so is |
| treated as "static"; explicit --enable-so=shared issues an error; |
| and explicit --enable-so fails with error on systems without |
| APR_HAS_DSO. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault in the core input filter when the client socket |
| gets disconnected unexpectedly. [Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Fix the reporting for child processes that die. This removes |
| all of the non-portable W* macros from Apache. |
| [Jeff Trawick and Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Win32: Track and display "Parent Server Generation:" in |
| mod_status output. The generation will be bumped at |
| server graceful restart, when the child process exits |
| by hitting MaxRequestsPerChild or if the child |
| process exits abnormally. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Win32: Fix problem where MaxRequestsPerChild directive was |
| not being picked up in favor of the default. Enable |
| the parent to start up a new child process immediately upon |
| the old child starting shutdown. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix some bungling of the remote port in rfc1413.c so that |
| IdentityCheck retrieves the proper user id instead of failing |
| and thus always returning "nobody." |
| [Dick Streefland <Dick.Streefland xs4all.nl>] |
| |
| *) Introduced thread saftey for mod_rewrite's internal cache. |
| [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Simplified mod_env's directives to behave as most directives are |
| expected, in that UnsetEnv will not unset a SetEnv and PassEnv |
| directive following that UnsetEnv within the same container. |
| Also provides a runtime startup warning if a PassEnv configured |
| environment value is undefined. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) The worker MPM is now completely ported to APR's new lock API. It |
| uses native APR types for thread mutexes, cross-process mutexes, |
| and condition variables. [Aaron Bannert] |
| |
| *) Sync up documentation to remove all references to the now deprecated |
| Port directive. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Moved all ldap modules from the core to httpd-ldap sub-project |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Exit when we can't listen on any of the configured ports. This |
| is the same behavior as 1.3, and it avoids having the MPMs to |
| deal with bogus ap_listen_rec structures. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the proxy code that creates a request to the origin |
| server. This change adds an optional hook, which allows modules |
| to gain control while the request is created if the proxy module |
| is loaded. The purpose of this hook is to allow modules to add |
| input and/or output filters to the request to the origin. While |
| I was at it, I made the core use this hook, so that proxy request |
| creation uses some of the code from the core. This can still be |
| greatly improved, but this is a good start. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.26 |
| |
| *) Port the MaxClients changes from the worker MPM to the threaded |
| MPM. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_proxy so that it handles chunked transfer-encoding and works |
| with the new input filtering system. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Introduce the MultiviewsMatch directive, to allow the operator |
| to be flexible in recognizing Handlers and Filters filename |
| extensions as part of the Multiviews matching logic, strict with |
| MultiviewsMatch NegotiatedOnly to accept only filename extentions |
| that designate negotiated parameters, (content type, charset, etc.) |
| or MultiviewsAll for the 1.3 behavior of matching any files, even |
| if they have unregistered extensions. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fixed the configure script to add a LoadModule directive to |
| the default httpd.conf for any module that was compiled |
| as a DSO. [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) rewrite mod_ssl input filtering to work with the new input filtering |
| system. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) prefork: Don't segfault when we are able to listen on some but |
| not all of the configured ports. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Build mod_so even if no core modules are built shared. |
| [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Introduce ap_directory_walk rewrite (with further optimizations |
| required) to adapt to the ap_process_request_internal() changes. |
| Optimized so subrequests and redirects now reuse previous section |
| merges, until we mismatch with the original directory_walk, and |
| precomputed r->finfo results will cause directory_walk to skip |
| the most expensive phases of the function. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Allow ApacheMonitor to connect to and control Apache on other |
| WinNT/2K machines. [Mladen Turk <mturk mappingsoft.com>] |
| |
| *) Remove the Port directive. In it's place, the Listen directive |
| is now a required directive, which tells Apache what port to |
| listen on. The ServerName directive has also been extended |
| to accept an optional port. If the port is specified to the |
| ServerName, the server will report that port whenever it |
| reports the port that it is listening on. This change was |
| made to ease configuration errors that stem from having a Port |
| directive, and a Listen directive. In that situation, the server |
| would only listen to the port specified by the Listen command, |
| which caused a lot of confusion to users. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Added mod_mime_magic, mod_unique_id and mod_vhost_alias to the Win32 |
| build, as loadable modules. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix --enable-mods-shared processing. If most is specified, |
| then all modules that can be compiled as shared modules are. |
| [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Update the mime.types file to map video/vnd.mpegurl to mxu |
| and add commonly used audio/x-mpegurl for m3u extensions. |
| [Heiko Recktenwald <uzs106 uni-bonn.de>, Lars Eilebrecht] |
| |
| *) Eliminate the depreciated r->content_language, in favor of the array |
| r->content_languages introduced many years ago. Module authors must |
| substantially overhaul their modules, so this needs to be upgraded |
| if the module still relied on backwards-brokeness. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Allow configure help strings to work with autoconf 2.50+ and 2.13. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Rewrite the input filtering mechanisms to consolidate and reorganize |
| code. In short, core_input_filter does something now and |
| ap_http_filter is now only concerned with HTTP. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Update the Win32 build to re-absorb mod_proxy and family. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Resolved the build failure on Win32 using MSVC 5.0 (without the |
| current SDK.) [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Some style changes to the code that does ProxyErrorOverride. Fixed |
| config merge behaviour. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Allow support programs to be compiled against a static version |
| of libapr. This allows the smaller support programs to be |
| relocated. [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Update the mime.types file to the registered media types as |
| of 2001-09-25, and add mapping for xsl extension [Mark Cox] |
| |
| *) Fix MaxClients in the Worker MPM, so that it specifies the maximum |
| number of clients that can connect at the same time, instead of |
| specifying the maximum number of child processes. |
| [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Switch proc_pthread AcceptMutex configuration directive to pthread to |
| be consistent with 1.3. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Cache apr_explode_localtime() value for 15 seconds. |
| [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_include to not return ETag or Last-Modified headers. |
| [Ian Holsman <ianh cnet.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix worker MPM's scoreboard logic. [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Eliminate the wasteful run-time conversion of method names from strings |
| to numbers in places where the methods are known at compile time. |
| [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Turn the worker MPM's queue into a LIFO. This may |
| improve cache-hit performance under some conditions. |
| [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Switch back to SIGUSR1 for graceful restarts on all platforms that |
| support it. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the worker MPM. We no longer re-use transaction |
| pools. This incurs less overhead than shuffling the pools |
| around so that they can be re-used. Remove one of the |
| queue's condition variables. We just redefined the API to |
| state that you can't try to add more stuff than you allocated |
| segments for. [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Fix SSL VPATH builds [Cody Sherr <csherr covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Fixed persistent connections when a request contains a body. |
| [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) mod_dav uses a new API to speak to the backend provider for dead |
| property management. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Remove the Win32 script-processing exception from mod_cgi, and |
| roll build_command_line/build_argv_list into a unified, overrideable |
| ap_cgi_build_command optional function. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Rewrite find_start_sequence to use a better search algorithm |
| to find the start tag. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Fix a seg fault in mod_include. When we are generating an |
| internal redirect, we must set r->uri to "", not a bogus |
| string, and not NULL. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Optimized location_walk, so subrequests, redirects and second passes |
| now reuse previous section merges on a <Location > by <Location > |
| basis, until we mismatch with the original location_walk. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Back out the 1.45 change to util_script.c. This change made |
| us set the environment variable REQUEST_URI to the redirected |
| URI, instead of the originally requested URI. |
| [Taketo Kabe <kabe sra-tohoku.co.jp>] |
| |
| *) Make mod_include do lazy evaluation of potentially expensive to |
| compute variables. [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix logging of bytes sent for HEAD requests. %b and %B should |
| log either - or 0, before this patch, they were both logging |
| the file size. [Taketo Kabe <kabe sra-tohoku.co.jp>] |
| |
| *) Make mod_include check for BYTE_CHECK_THRESHOLD per bucket rather |
| than per character. [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Normalize the primary request, redirects and sub-requests to |
| run the same ap_process_request_internal for consistency in |
| robustness, behavior and security. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault with mod_include when r->path_info is not set |
| (which is the case with mod_proxy). [Ian Holsman <ianh cnet.com>] |
| |
| *) Add -X functionality back. This indicates to all MPMs and any other |
| part of Apache that it should run in "debug" mode. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Some initial support for the cygwin platform [prefork only]. |
| This is not to be confused with support for the WinNT/Win32 |
| platform, which is the recommended configuration for native |
| Win32 users. The cygwin platform support is recommended for |
| cygwin platform users. [Stipe Tolj <tolj wapme-systems.de>] |
| |
| *) Changed syntax of Set{Input|Output}Filter. The list of filters |
| must be semicolon delimited (if more than one filter is given.) |
| The Set{Input|Output}Filter directive now overrides a parent |
| container's directive (e.g. SetInputFilter in <Directory /web/foo> |
| will override any SetInputFilter directive in <Directory /web>.) |
| This new syntax is more consistent with Add{Input|Output}Filter |
| directives defined in mod_mime. Also cures a bug in prior releases |
| where the Set{Input|Output}Filter directive would corrupt the |
| global configuration if the multiple directives were nested. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Cured what's ailed mime for quite some time. If an AddSomething |
| was given in the configuration (Language, Charset, Handler or |
| Encoding) Apache would set the content type as given by AddType, |
| but refused to check the mime.types file if AddType wasn't given |
| for that specific extension. Setting the AddHandler for .html |
| without setting the AddType text/html html would cause Apache to |
| use the default content type. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Added some bulletproofing to memory allocation in the LDAP cache |
| code. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.25 |
| |
| *) Move the installed /manual directory out of the /htdocs/ tree, so |
| that it can be kept more independently from the remaining document |
| root. The "Alias /manual ..." already allowed for easy projection |
| into existing private document trees. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Add specified user attributes to the environment when using |
| mod_auth_ldap. This allows you to use mod_include to embed specified |
| user attributes in a page like so: |
| Hello <!--#echo var="AUTHENTICATE_CN"-->, how are you? |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fix a performance problem with the worker MPM. We now create |
| transaction pools once, and re-use them for each connection. |
| [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Modfied mod_mime to prevent mod_negotation from serving a multiview |
| of a 'handler' or 'filter', so that any filename extension that does |
| not contribute to the negotiated metadata can't be served without |
| an explicit request. E.g., if the .Z extension is associated with |
| an unzip filter, the user request somefile.Z.html, mod_negotiation |
| won't serve it. It can serve somefile.Z.html when somefile.Z is |
| requested, since the .Z extension is explictly requested, if the |
| .html extension is associated with ContentType text/html. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Introduce the AddInputFilter filter[;filter...] ext [ext...] |
| and corresponding AddOutputFilter syntax, to insert one or more |
| filters by mod_mime filename extension processing. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix a growing connection pool in core_output_filter() for |
| keepalive requests. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Moved split_and_pass_pretag_buckets back to being a |
| macro at Ryans's request. Removed the return from it |
| by setting and returning a return code instead. Updated |
| the code to check the return code from the macro and |
| do the right thing. [Paul J. Reder] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault when a numeric value was received for Host:. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add a function ap_remove_input_filter. This is to match |
| up with ap_remove_output_filter. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Clean up location_walk, so that this step performs a minimum |
| amount of redundant effort (it must be run twice, but it will no |
| longer reparse all <Location > blocks when the request uri |
| hadn't changed.) [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Eliminate proxy: (and all other 'special') processing from the |
| ap_directory_walk() phase. Modules that want to use special |
| walk logic should refer to the mod_proxy map_to_location example, |
| with it's proxy_walk and proxysection implementation. This makes |
| either directory_walk flavor much more legible, since that phase |
| only runs against real <Directory > blocks. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Fix a security problem in mod_include which would allow |
| an SSI document to be passed to the client unparsed. |
| [Cliff Woolley, Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Introduce the map_to_storage hook, which allows modules to bypass |
| the directory_walk and file_walk for non-file requests. TRACE |
| shortcut moved to http_protocol.c as APR_HOOK_MIDDLE, and the |
| directory_walk/file_walk happen as APR_HOOK_VERY_LAST in core.c. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Add the ability for mod_include to add the INCLUDES filter |
| if the file is configured for the server-parsed handler. |
| This makes the configuration for .shtml files much easier |
| to understand, and allows mod_include to honor Apache 1.3 |
| config files. Based on Doug MacEachern's patch to PHP |
| to do the same thing. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) force OpenSSL to ignore process local-caching and to always |
| get/set/delete sessions using mod_ssl's callbacks |
| [Madhusudan Mathihalli <madhusudan_mathihalli hp.com>, |
| Geoff Thorpe <geoff geoffthorpe.net>] |
| |
| *) Make the worker MPM shutdown and restart cleanly. This also |
| cleans up some race conditions, and gets the worker using |
| pools more cleanly. [Aaron Bannert <aaron clove.org>] |
| |
| *) Implement CRYPTO_set_locking_callback() in terms of apr_lock |
| for mod_ssl |
| [Madhusudan Mathihalli <madhusudan_mathihalli hp.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix for mod_include. Ryan's patch to check error |
| codes put a return in the wrong place. Also, the |
| include handler return code wasn't being checked. |
| I don't like macros with returns, so I converted |
| SPLIT_AND_PASS_PRETAG_BUCKETS into a function. |
| [Paul J. Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) fix segv in mod_mime if no AddTypes are configured |
| [John Sterling <sterling covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Enable ssl client authentication at SSL_accept time |
| [Madhusudan Mathihalli <madhusudan_mathihalli hp.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault in mod_include when the original request has no |
| associated filename (e.g., we're filtering the error document for |
| a bad URI). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix a storage leak (a strdup() call) in mod_mime_magic. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) The prefork and OS/2 MPMs are overwriting the pid file when a second copy |
| of httpd is started and shuts down due to socket conflict. Moving the |
| call to ap_log_pid solves the problem. |
| |
| *) Changed the late-1.3 log_config substitution %c to %X, to log the |
| status of the closed connection, as it conflicts with the far more |
| common, historical ssl logging directive %...{var}c. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Added the common error/ tree to the build/install targets |
| (similar to the common icons/ tree) for the multi-language error |
| messages that Lars committed earlier. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Added a multi process, multi threaded OS/2 MPM mpmt_os2. [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Added a default commented-out mod_ldap and mod_auth_ldap |
| configuration to httpd-std.conf and httpd-win.conf |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Added documentation for mod_ldap and mod_auth_ldap. |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Enabled negative caching on attribute comparisons in the LDAP cache. |
| Fixed a problem where the default cache TTL was set in milliseconds |
| not microseconds causing the cache to time out almost immediately. |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fixed all the #if APR_HAS_SHARED_MEMORY checks within the LDAP |
| module code to follow APR. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fixed LDAP cleanup on graceful restarts. LDAP connections are now |
| cleaned up when the connection pool pool is cleaned up. |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fix a minor issue with Jeff Trawick's mod_include |
| patch. Without this patch, the code will just allocate |
| more bytes in get_combined_directive than are needed. |
| [Paul Reder] |
| |
| *) Added the LDAP authentication module mod_auth_ldap. |
| [Dave Carrigan <dave rudedog.org>, Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Added the LDAP cache and connection pooling module mod_ldap. |
| [Dave Carrigan <dave rudedog.org>, Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Fix --enable-modules=all breakage with mod_auth_db and mod_auth_digest |
| by allowing a module to disable itself if its prerequisites are not |
| met. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.24 |
| |
| *) Fix a couple of issues in mod_include when the tag appeared at |
| offsets near 8192 in the file being parsed. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix an assertion failure in mod_ssl when the keepalive timeout is |
| reached. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Numerous improvements to the Win32 build system. Introduced command line |
| builds without requiring .mak files for MSVC 6.0 and later versions. |
| Improved .dsp file compatibility for both Visual Studio 5.0 and 6.0 users. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Assorted corrections and improvements to the winnt_mpm startup code. Better |
| reporting of uninstalled services and other error conditions, and changed the |
| default service name to Apache2. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Numerous improvements to the Win32 ApacheMonitor utility, including winnt_mpm |
| compatibility with existing Apache 1.3 Win32 Apache management utilites. |
| [Mladen Turk <mturk mappingsoft.com>, William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fixed the segfaults in mod_mime introduced by hash tables in 2.0.20. |
| [William Rowe, Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Rounded out the mod_mime Add/Remove pairs by adding RemoveLanguage |
| and RemoveCharset directives. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) The Unix MPMs other than perchild now allow child server |
| processes to use the accept mutex when starting as root and |
| using SysV sems for the accept mutex. Previously, this |
| combination would lead to fatal errors in the child server |
| processes. perchild can't use SysV sems because of security |
| issues. [Jeff Trawick, Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Added Win32 revision stamp resources to all http binaries |
| (including modules/ and support/ tools.) PR7322 [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix ap_rvprintf to support more than 4K of data at one time. |
| [Cody Sherr <csherr covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) We have always used the obsolete/deprecated Netscape syntax |
| for our tracking cookies; now the CookieStyle directive |
| allows the Webmaster to choose the Netscape, RFC2109, or |
| RFC2965 format. The new CookieDomain directive allows the |
| setting of the cookie's Domain= attribute, too. PR #s 5006, |
| 5023, 5920, 6140 [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Tweak server/Makefile so that the rules for generating exports.c |
| are compatible with make utilities which don't expand wildcards |
| in a dependency list (e.g., OS/390 make, certain levels of GNU |
| make). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Install the SSL headers. [John Sterling <sterling covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Begin to sanitize the MPM configuration directives. Now, all |
| MPMs use the same functions for all common MPM directives. This |
| should make it easier to catch all bugs in these directives once. |
| [Cody Sherr <csherr covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Close a major resource leak. Every time we had issued a |
| graceful restart, we leaked a socket descriptor. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix a problem with the new method code. We need to cast |
| the 1 to an apr_int64_t or it will be treated as a 32-bit |
| integer, and it will wrap after being shifted 32 times. |
| [Cody Sherr <csherr covalent.net> and Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug in mod_expires. Previous to this patch, if you |
| told mod_expires to add 604800 seconds to the last-modified |
| time, it actually added 604800 usec's to the last-modified time, |
| so that when looking at the response it looked like nothing |
| had been done. The root of the problem was that we always compute |
| time in usec's, but we ask users to input sec's. This means we |
| need to convert to usec's before using those values. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) The worker MPM now handles shutdown and restart requests. It |
| definitely isn't perfect, but we do stop the servers correctly. |
| The biggest problem right now is that SIGHUP causes the server to |
| just die. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.23 |
| |
| *) Use the prefork MPM by default on Unix. [various] |
| |
| *) Added a systray icon monitor application for Win32. |
| [Mladen Turk <mturk mappingsoft.com>] |
| |
| *) mod_rewrite: Fix the line ending on some non-Unix systems for |
| messages written to the rewrite log. |
| [Richard Labennett <rlabenn us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) All mod_autoindex query parsing is now quietly quashed with the |
| IndexOption IgnoreClient. The IndexOption SuppressColumnSorting |
| still drops the column sort <a href>'s for the column headers, but |
| IgnoreClient is required to ignore these Query options entirely. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Introduced new mod_autoindex query argument parsing for F=[0|1|2] |
| to allow the client to select plain, FancyIndexing or HTMLTable |
| formatting, V=[0|1] to inhibit or enable version sorting, and |
| P=pattern to return only specific files. The old Query Arguments |
| were reorganized as C=f for sorting column 'f' (same N, D, S, or M |
| as before), and O=A|D for ordering ascending or descending. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fixed an error in mod_include's directive parsing routines which |
| caused #if, #elif, and #else expressions containing backslashes |
| to be improperly evaluated. [Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Introduced new mod_autoindex IndexOptions flags: SuppressIcon to |
| drop the icon column, SuppressRules to drop the <hr> elements, |
| and HTMLTable to create rudimentary HTML table listings (implies |
| FancyIndexing). [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Re-introduced the mod_autoindex IndexOptions flag TrackModified |
| from Apache 1.3.15. This is needed for two reasons, first, given |
| multiple machines within a server farm, ETags and Last-Modified |
| stamps won't correspond from machine to machine, and second, many |
| Unixes don't capture changes to the date or time stamp of existing |
| files, since these don't modify the dirent itself. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Re-introduced the mod_autoindex IndexOptions flag FoldersFirst |
| and DirectoryWidth options from Apache 1.3.10. |
| [William Rowe, Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Eliminated FancyIndexing directive, deprecated early in Apache |
| 1.3 by the IndexOptions FancyIndexing syntax. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) mod_autoindex now excludes any file names that would result in |
| an error, other than a success or redirect. Also optimized |
| the parent directory, always included except in the URI '/'. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Refactored mod_negotiation and mod_mime to help mod_dir accept |
| negotiated index pages, and prevent the server from defaulting |
| to an autoindex of the directory. mod_negotiation will now die |
| with a 500 Internal Error if it could match some filenames |
| (e.g. for mod_dir) but none can be served. mod_negotation now |
| refuses to serve any file with an extention that mod_mime doesn't |
| recognize, and wasn't part of the request. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Eliminate mod_cgi's handling of .exe files without the .exe file |
| extension. This is already handled by multiviews, if the admin |
| wishes to AddHandler .exe or define a content type handler and |
| associate .exe files with that content type. Multiviews must be |
| enabled to allow these to be served. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Speed up the server's response to a spike in incoming workload |
| or restarts by assigning empty scoreboard slots to new processes |
| when they are available. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Add a handler to mod_includes.c. This handler is designed to |
| implement the XbitHack directive. This can't be done with a |
| fixup, because we need to check the content-type, which is |
| only available in the handler phase. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make the includes filter check return codes from filters lower in |
| the filter chain. If a lower level filter returns an error, then |
| the request needs to stop immediately. This allows mod_include to |
| stop parsing data once a lower filter recognizes an error. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add the ability to extend the methods that Apache understands |
| and have those methods <limit>able in the httpd.conf. It uses |
| the same bit mask/shifted offset as the original HTTP methods |
| such as M_GET or M_POST, but expands the total bits from an int to |
| an ap_int64_t to handle more bits for new request methods than |
| an int provides. [Cody Sherr <csherr covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix broken mod_mime behavior in merging its arguments. Possible |
| cause of unexplicable crashes introduced in 2.0.20. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Solve many mod_ssl porting issues (too many to detail) with |
| help from the whole team, but most notably [Ralf S. Engelschall, |
| Madhusudan Mathihalli <madhusudan_mathihalli hp.com>, |
| Doug MacEachern, William Rowe, Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) More stall fixes for the threaded & worker mpm's. |
| Make mod_status output more accurate. Don't |
| count workers in processes which aren't actively |
| serving requests. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Win32: Get SSI exec cgi tag working. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Add a single listener/multiple worker MPM. This MPM is |
| definately not fully correct, but it allows us to solve many |
| of the problems that exist in the threaded MPM. This is a |
| modified version of the threaded MPM. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Improve content generation throughout Apache, providing closer |
| compliance with HTML 3.2, HTML 4.01 Transitional and XHTML 1.0 |
| Transitional specifications. [William Rowe] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.22 |
| |
| *) Fix a problem where the threaded MPM stalls after restarts or |
| segfaults. Also prevent multiple active processes from using |
| the same scoreboard slot. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Apache/Win32 now fills in the service description with Apache's |
| server version string, including loaded and advertised modules. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Improved support for the Win32 build, to recover gracefully from |
| missing apr or apr-util directories or the awk interpreter, |
| create the proper cgi-bin examples, including a test-cgi.bat, and |
| fix the perl shebang line for printenv.pl, when installing from |
| the build environment. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault in threaded.c caused by passing uninitialized |
| apr_thread_t * to apr_thread_join(). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Use new APR number conversion functions to reduce CPU consumption |
| when setting the content length, and in mod_log_config. |
| [Brian Pane] |
| |
| *) Fix problem reported by Taketo Kabe <kabe sra-tohoku.co.jp> |
| where HEAD response headers were being repeated twice for |
| files greater than 32K bytes (4*AP_MIN_BYTES_TO_WRITE). This |
| problem in the http_header filter was exposed by the recent rewrite |
| of the content_length filter. [Taketo Kabe, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix seg faults in mod_status with ExtendedStatus enabled, after |
| restarts. A garbage pointer to a vhost's server_rec from the |
| previous generation was being left around under certain |
| conditions. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Fix a cosmetic problem with mod_include. Non-existant SSI vars |
| used to appear as '(none', without the closing paren. |
| [Günter Knauf <eflash gmx.net>] |
| |
| *) Improve the exports generating awk script. In the past, we had |
| work around problems in the awk script by avoiding some #if and |
| #ifdefs. This has bitten us many times in generating the exports.c |
| file. This improvement allows corrects the header file parsing. |
| [Sander Striker <striker apache.org>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.21 |
| |
| *) Resolve the Win32 htpasswd bug, where a file that existed would be |
| overwritten, regardless of the -c flag. |
| [William Rowe, Mladen Turk <mladen.turk mail.inet.hr>] |
| |
| *) Introduce connection sub-pools into ab. Truncating the lifetime |
| of these allocations means that ab no longer perpetually grows |
| its working set, running out of memory on large request attempts. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Make scoreboard creation a hook. This allows management |
| modules to have access to the scoreboard at the time that it is |
| created, and at every restart request. |
| [Cody Sherr <csherr covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Changed AP_MPMQ_MAX_DAEMONS to refer to MaxClients and |
| added an AP_MPMQ_MAX_DAEMON_USED to refer to the highest |
| daemon index actually used in the scoreboard. I also |
| updated the pertinent calls. [Paul J. Reder] |
| |
| *) Win32: Prevent listening sockets from being inherited by |
| the Apache child process, CGI scripts, rotatelog process |
| etc. If the Apache child process segfaults, any processes |
| that the child started are not reaped. Prior to this fix, |
| these processes inherited the listening sockets which sometimes |
| prevented the restarted Apache child process from accepting |
| connections (ie, the server would hang). |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Provide vhost and request strings when ExtendedStatus is on. |
| [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Fix some issues with the pod and prefork: check the pod *after* |
| processing a connection so that a server processing a time- |
| consuming request bails out as soon as practical; when the |
| parent process wakes up a server process via connect(), use an |
| APR timeout on the connect() so that we don't hang for a long |
| time if there aren't server processes around to do accept(). |
| [Jeff Trawick, Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Performance improvement to mod_mime.c. find_ct() in mod_mime, |
| spends a lot of time in apr_table_get calls. Using the default |
| httpd.conf, the tables for languages and charsets are somewhat |
| large, so the time spent scanning them on each request is |
| significant. Replacing the tables with hash tables provides |
| a nice speedup. [Brian Pane <bpane pacbell.net>] |
| |
| *) Add two functions to allow modules to access random parts of the |
| scoreboard. This allows modules compiled for one MPM to access the |
| scoreboard, even if it the server was compiled for another MPM. |
| [Harrie Hazewinkel <harrie covalent.net>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.20 |
| |
| *) Fix problem in content-length filter where the filter would |
| buffer all the output from a CGI before sending any bytes |
| down the filter stack to the network. This problem would cause |
| significant memory consumption if the CGIs generated |
| lots of bytes. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Get non-blocking CGI pipe reads working with the bucket brigades. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix seg fault on Windows when serving files cached with mod_file_cache. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug in the threaded MPM that would cause it to kill off all |
| workers immediately after starting if the number of workers started |
| was above a certain threshold. [Ryan Bloom, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.19 |
| |
| *) Fix problem with threaded MPM. The problem was that if each child |
| process was busy serving a single long-lived request and the server |
| was sent a graceful restart signal, the server would stop serving |
| requests. This would happen because each child process would wait to |
| die until the last thread was done, and the parent wouldn't spawn any |
| new children until a process died. Now, the parent looks at the fact |
| that the children are dying gracefully, and starts new children. |
| Those new children only start enough threads to compliment the number |
| of threads in the other child process that shares the same spot in |
| the scoreboard. In this way, we make sure to never go over |
| MaxClients. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) modified mod_negotiation and mod_autoindex to speed up by almost a |
| factor of two on apr_dir_read()-enhanced platforms, such as Win32 |
| and OS2, by calling ap_sub_request_lookup_dirent() with the results |
| already provided by apr_dir_read(). [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) mod_file_cache is now more robust to filtering and serves requests |
| slightly more efficiently. [Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Fix problem handling FLUSH bucket in the chunked encoding filter. |
| Module was calling ap_rwrite() followed by ap_rflush() but the |
| served content was not being displayed in the browser. Inspection |
| of the output stream revealed that the first data chunk was |
| missing the trailing CRLF required by the RFC. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) apxs no longer generates ap_send_http_header() in the example handler |
| |
| *) Fix an ab problem which could cause a divide-by-zero exception |
| with certain invocations (e.g., ab -k -c 6 -n 100 localhost/). |
| [Ian Holsman <ianh cnet.com>] |
| |
| *) Solve case-insensitive platforms' confusion about negotiated |
| filenames, allowing files of differnt case to match in choosing |
| the document to serve. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix brokenness when ThreadsPerChild is higher than the built-in |
| limit. We left ap_threads_per_child at the higher value which |
| led to segfaults when doing certain scoreboard operations. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix seg faults and/or missing output from mod_include. The |
| default_handler was using the subrequest pool for files and |
| MMAPs, even though the associated APR structures typically |
| live longer than the subrequest. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Extend mod_setenvif to support specifying regular expressions |
| on the SetEnvIf (and SetEnvIfNoCase) directive attribute field. |
| Example: SetEnvIf ^TS* [a-z].* HAVE_TS |
| will cause HAVE_TS to be set if any of the request headers begins |
| with "TS" and has a value that begins with any character in the |
| set [a-z]. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) httpd children now re-bind themselves to a random CPU on |
| multiprocessor systems on AIX via bindprocessor() in 2.0. |
| [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) Fix htdigest. It would go into a loop in getline when adding |
| a second user. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Win32 platforms now fully support mod_userdir options. [Will Rowe] |
| |
| *) Automatically generate httpd.exp for AIX. |
| DSOs now work again on AIX in 2.0 |
| [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) Add a new request hook, error_log. This phase allows modules |
| to act on the error log string _after_ it has been written |
| to the error log. The goal for this hook is to allow monitoring |
| modules to send the error string to the monitoring agent. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Modify mod_echo to make it use filters for input and output. |
| [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Extend mod_headers to support conditional driven Header |
| add, append and set. Use SetEnvIf to set an envar and conditionally |
| add/append/set headers based on this envar thusly: |
| |
| SetEnvIf TSMyHeader value HAVE_TSMyHeader |
| Header add MyHeader "%t %D" env=HAVE_TSMyHeader |
| |
| If the request contains header "TSMyHeader: value" then header |
| MyHeader: "t=xxxxxxxxxx D=yyyy" will be sent on the response. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Extend mod_headers to support using format specifiers on Header |
| add, append and set header values. Two format specifiers are supported: |
| |
| %t - reports, in UTC microseconds since the epoch, when the |
| request was received. |
| |
| %D - reports the time, in microseconds, between when the request was |
| received and the response sent. |
| |
| Examples: |
| Header add MyHeader "This request served in %D microseconds. %t" |
| |
| results in a header being added to the response that looks like this: |
| |
| MyHeader: This request served in D=5438 microseconds. t=991424704447256 |
| |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix reset_filter(). We need to be careful how we remove filters. |
| If we set r->output_filters to NULL, we also have to reset the |
| connection's filters. [John Sterling] |
| |
| *) Optimise reset_filter() in http_protocol.c. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Add a check to ap_die() to make sure the filter stack is sane and |
| contains the correct basic filters when an error occurs. This fixes |
| a problem where headers are not being sent on error. [John Sterling] |
| |
| *) New Header directive 'echo' option. "Header echo regex" will |
| cause any headers received on the request that match regex to be |
| echoed to (included in) the response headers. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) include/ap_compat.h tested and set APR_COMPAT_H instead of AP_COMPAT_H. |
| This prevented the inclusion of apr_compat.h. PR #7773 |
| [Oleg Broytmann <phd phd.pp.ru>] |
| |
| *) Moved util_uri to the apr-util library. This required a bunch of |
| apr_name changes for the uri utility functions. [Justin Erenkrantz] |
| |
| *) Move the addition of default AP_HTTP_HTTP_HEADER filters to the |
| insert_filter phase so that other filters are not bypassed by default. |
| [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Reimplement mod_headers as an output filter. mod_headers can now |
| add custom headers to inbound requests using the RequestHeader directive |
| and to responses using the same old Header directive. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.18 |
| |
| *) Fix command-line processing so that if a bad argument is specified |
| Apache will exit. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Change the make targets and rules to be consistent in all of the |
| Apache-owned source trees. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fix processing of the TRACE method. Previously we passed bogus |
| parms to form_header_field() and it overlaid some vhost structures, |
| resulting in a segfault in check_hostalias(). |
| [Greg Ames, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Win32: Add support for reliable piped logs. If the logging process |
| goes down, Apache will automatically restart it. This function has |
| been part of Apache on Unix/Linux/BSD since the early v1.3 releases. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Do not start piped log processes during the config file |
| preflight. This change also circumvents a problem on |
| Windows where the rotatelog processes created during preflight |
| was not getting cleaned up properly. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) add "Request Phase Participation" info to mod_info |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Make first phase changes to the scoreboard data structures in |
| preparation for the rewriting of the scoreboard per my posted |
| design notes. [Paul J. Reder] |
| |
| *) Fix httpd's definition of LTFLAGS to be consistent with that of apr |
| and apr-util, allow it to be overridden by the configure command-line |
| (default="--silent") and introduce LT_LDFLAGS to replace what we were |
| formerly abusing as LTFLAGS. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Clean up the reporting of incorrect closing container tags. |
| [Barrie Slaymaker <barries slaysys.com>] |
| |
| *) Simplify the configure process by moving all libtool stuff to APR |
| and moving hints.m4 inline. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Add the AP_DECLARE()/AP_CORE_DECLARE macros on the return types |
| of functions used by mod_proxy for export in the DLL |
| [Ian Holsman <IanH cnet.com>] |
| |
| *) Prevent a hang when a cgi handled by mod_cgid tries to read a |
| request body from its stdin but no reqest body is being written to |
| the cgi. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) mod_log_config: %c connection status incorrectly logged |
| as "-" (non-keepalive) when MaxKeepAliveRequests is set to 0. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Get mod_cern_meta working under Windows |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Create Files, and thus MMAPs, out of the request pool, not the |
| connection pool. This solves a small resource leak that had us |
| not closing files until a connection was closed. In order to do |
| this, at the end of the core_output_filter, we loop through the |
| brigade and convert any data we have into a single HEAP bucket |
| that we know will survive clearing the request_rec. |
| [Ryan Bloom, Justin Erenkrantz <jerenkrantz ebuilt.com>, |
| Cliff Woolley] |
| |
| *) Completely revamp configure so that it preserves the standard make |
| variables CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS and LIBS by moving |
| the configure additions to EXTRA_* variables. Also, allow the user |
| to specify NOTEST_* values for all of the above, which eliminates the |
| need for THREAD_CPPFLAGS, THREAD_CFLAGS, and OPTIM. Fix the setting |
| of INCLUDES and EXTRA_INCLUDES. Check flags as they are added to |
| avoid pointless duplications. Fix the order in which flags are given |
| on the compile and link lines. Remove obsolete macros APR_DOEXTRA, |
| AC_ADD_LIBRARY, AC_CHECK_DEFINE, APACHE_PASSTHRU, and APACHE_ONCE. |
| Added APR_SAVE_THE_ENVIRONMENT and APR_RESTORE_THE_ENVIRONMENT macros. |
| Renamed AC_TYPE_RLIM_T macro to APACHE_TYPE_RLIM_T. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Get mod_tls to compile/work better on Windows. PR #7612 |
| [Bernhard Schrenk <b.schrenk improx.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix shutdown/restart hangs in the threaded MPM. |
| [Jeff Trawick, Greg Ames, Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Removed the keptalive boolean from conn_rec because it is now only |
| used by a single routine and can be replaced by a local variable. |
| [Greg Stein, Ryan Bloom, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Patch prefork to put enough of the signal processing back in so that |
| signals are all handled properly now. The previous patch fixed the |
| deadlock race condition, but broke the user directed signal handling. |
| This fixes it to work the way it did before my previous prefork patch |
| (primarily, SIGTERM is now working). |
| |
| *) Change how input filters decide how much data is returned to the |
| higher filter. We used to use a field in the conn_rec, with this |
| change, we use an argument to ap_get_brigade to determine how much |
| data is retrieved. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix seg fault at start-up introduced by Ryan's change to enable |
| modules to specify their own logging tags. mod_log_config |
| registers an optional function, ap_register_log_handler(). |
| ap_register_log_handler() was being called by http_core before |
| the directive hash table was created. This patch creates the |
| directive hash table before ap_register_log_handler() is |
| registered as an optional function. |
| [jean-frederic clere <jfrederic.clere fujitsu-siemens.com>] |
| |
| *) Add ap_set_int_slot() function |
| [John K. Sterling <sterling covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Under certain circumstances, Apache did not supply the |
| right response headers when requiring authentication. |
| [Gertjan van Wingerde <Gertjan.van.Wingerde cmg.nl>] PR#7114 |
| (This is a port of the change that went into Apache 1.3.19.) |
| |
| *) Allow modules to specify their own logging tags. This basically |
| allows a module to tell mod_log_config that when %x is encountered |
| a specific function should be called. Currently, x can be any single |
| character. It may be more useful to make this a string at some point. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.17 |
| |
| *) If a higher-level filter handles the byterange aspects of a |
| request, then the byterange filter should not try to redo the |
| work. The most common case of this happening, is a byterange |
| request going through the proxy, and the origin server handles |
| the byterange request. The proxy should ignore it. |
| [Graham Leggett <minfrin sharp.fm>] |
| |
| *) Changed the threaded mpm to have child_main join to each of the |
| worker threads to make sure the kids are all gone before child_main |
| exits after a signal (cleanup from perform_idle_server_maintenance). |
| This is an extension of Ryans recent commit to make the child_main |
| the signal thread. |
| |
| *) Add more options to the ap_mpm_query function. This also allows MPMs to |
| report if their threads are dynamic or static. Finally, this also |
| implements a new API, ap_show_mpm, which returns the MPM that was |
| required into the core. [Harrie Hazewinkel <harrie covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Do not install the binaries from the support directory twice. |
| [jun-ichiro hagino <itojun iijlab.net>] |
| |
| *) The ap_f* functions should flush data to the filter that is passed |
| in, not the filter after the one passed in. |
| [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Make ab work again by changing its native types to apr types and formats. |
| [Justin Erenkrantz <jerenkrantz ebuilt.com>] |
| |
| *) Move the byterange filter and all of the supporting functions back |
| to the HTTP module. The byterange filter turned out to be very |
| HTTP specific, and it belongs in the HTTP module. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Make clean, distclean, and extraclean consistently according to the |
| Gnu makefile guidelines. [Justin Erenkrantz <jerenkrantz ebuilt.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix errors in the renaming of the apr_threadattr_detach_xxx functions. |
| This may have been causing problems stopping processes in the threaded |
| mpm's. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Fix content-length in mod_negotiation to a long int representation. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Remove BindAddress from the default config file. |
| [<giles nemeton.com.au>] |
| |
| *) Allow module authors to add a module to their Apache build using |
| --with-module, without re-running buildconf. The syntax is: |
| --with-module=module_type:/path/to/module.c |
| The configure script will copy the module.c file to |
| modules/module_type, and it will be added to the relevant Makefiles. |
| currently, this only works for static modules. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Changes required to make prefork clean up idle children properly. |
| There was a window during which a starting worker deadlocks when |
| an idle cleanup arrives before it completes init. Apache then keeps |
| trying to cleanup the same deadlocked worker forever (until higher |
| pids come along, but it still will never reduce below the deadlocked |
| pid). Thus the number of children would not reduce to the correct |
| idle level. [Paul J. Reder] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.16 |
| |
| *) Change the default installation directory to /usr/local/apache2, |
| as now defined by the "Apache" layout in config.layout. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) OS/2: Added support for building loadable modules as OS/2 DLLs. |
| [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Get MaxRequestsPerChild working with the Windows MPM. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Make generic hooks to work, with mod_generic_hook_import/export |
| experimental modules. [Ben Laurie, Will Rowe] |
| |
| *) Fix segfaults for configuration file syntax errors such as |
| "<Directory>" followed by "</Directory" and |
| "<Directory>" followed by "</Directoryz>". [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the --enable-layout option of configure. This makes |
| us use a consistent location for the config.layout file, and it |
| makes configure more portable. |
| [jun-ichiro hagino <itojun iijlab.net>] |
| |
| *) Changes to 'ab'; fixed int overrun's, added statistics, output in |
| csv/gnuplot format, rudimentary ssl support and various other tweaks |
| to make results more true to what is measured. The upshot of this it |
| turns out that 'ab' has often underreported the true performance of |
| apache. Often by a order of magnitude :-) See talk/paper of Sander |
| Temme at April ApacheCon 2001 for details. |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik] |
| |
| *) Clean up mod_cgid's temporary request pool. Besides fixing a |
| storage leak this ensures that some unnecessary pipes are closed. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Performance: Add quick_handler hook. This hook is called at the |
| very beginning of the request processing before location_walk, |
| translate_name, etc. This hook is useful for URI keyed content |
| caches like Mike Abbott's Quick Shortcut Cache. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) top_module global variable renamed to ap_top_module [Perl] |
| |
| *) Move ap_set_last_modified to the core. This is a potentially |
| controversial change, because this is kind of HTTP specific. However |
| many protocols should be able to take advantage of this kind of |
| information. I expect that headers will need one more layer of |
| indirection for multi-protocol work, but this is a small step in |
| the right direction. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Enable mod_status by default. This matches what Apache 1.3 does. |
| [Ed Korthof] |
| |
| *) Add a ScriptSock directive to the default config file. This is |
| only enabled when mod_cgid is used. |
| [Taketo Kabe <kabe sra-tohoku.co.jp>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.15 |
| |
| *) Untangled the buildconf script and eliminated the need for build's |
| aclocal.m4, generated_lists, build.mk, build2.mk, and a host of other |
| libtool muck that is now under srclib/apr/build. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Win32: Don't accept more connections than we have worker threads |
| to handle. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix bug in the Unix threaded.c MPM that allowed child processes |
| to fork() new child processes. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Fix a major security problem with double-reverse lookup |
| checking. Previously, a client connecting over IPv4 would not be |
| matched properly when the server had an IPv6 listening socket. |
| PR #7407 [Taketo Kabe <kiabe sra-tohoku.co.jp>] |
| |
| *) Change the way the beos MPM handles polling to allow it to stop and |
| restart. Problem was the sockets being polled were being reset by |
| the select call, so once it had accepted a connection it was no |
| longer listening on the UDP socket we use for shutdown instructions. |
| APR needs to be altered, patch on it's way. [David Reid] |
| |
| *) Empty out the brigade shared by ap_getline()/ap_get_client_block() |
| on error exit from ap_getline(). Some other code got upset because |
| the wrong data was in the brigade. [Greg Ames, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Handle ap_discard_request_body() being called more than once. |
| [Greg Ames, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Get rid of an inadvertent close of file descriptor 2 in |
| mod_mime_magic. [Greg Ames, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add a hook, create_request. This hook allows modules to modify |
| a request while it is being created. This hook is called for all |
| request_rec's, main request, sub request, and internal redirect. |
| When this hook is called, the r->main, r->prev, r->next |
| pointers have been set, so modules can determine what kind of |
| request this is. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the build process a bit more. The Apache configure |
| script no longer creates its own helper scripts, it just |
| uses APR's. |
| [jean-frederic clere <jfrederic.clere fujitsu-siemens.com>] |
| |
| *) Stop the forced downgrade of the connection to HTTP/1.0 for |
| proxy requests. [Graham Leggett] |
| |
| *) Avoid using sscanf to determine the HTTP protocol number in |
| the common case because sscanf is a performance hog. From |
| Mike Abbot's Accelerating Apache patch number 6. |
| [Mike Abbot <mja trudge.engr.sgi.com>, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Fix a security exposure in mod_access. Previously when |
| IPv6 listening sockets were used, allow/deny-from-IPv4-address rules |
| were not evaluated properly (PR #7407). Also, add the ability to |
| specify IPv6 address strings with optional prefix length on Allow |
| and Deny. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Enhance rotatelogs so that a UTC offset can be specified, and |
| the logfile name can be formatted using strftime(3). (Brought |
| forward from 1.3.) [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Reimplement the Windows MPM (mpm_winnt.c) to eliminate calling |
| DuplicateHandle on an IOCompletionPort (a practice which |
| MS "discourages"). The new model does not rely on associating |
| the completion port with the listening sockets, thus the |
| completion port can be completely managed within the child |
| process. A dedicated thread accepts connections off the network, |
| then calls PostQueuedCompletionStatus() to wake up worker |
| threads blocked on the completion port. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Bring forward the --suexec-umask option which allows the |
| builder to preset the umask for suexec processes. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add a -V flag to suexec, which causes it to display the |
| compile-time settings with which it was built. (Only |
| usable by root or the AP_HTTPD_USER username.) [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Mod_include should always unset the content-length if the file is |
| going to be passed through send_parsed_content. There is no to |
| determine if the content will change before actually scanning the |
| entire content. It is far safer to just remove the C-L as long |
| as we are scanning it. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make sure Apache sends WWW-Authenticate during a reverse proxy |
| request and not Proxy-Authenticate. |
| [Graham Leggett <minfrin sharp.fm>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.14 |
| |
| *) Fix content-length computation. We ONLY compute a content-length if |
| We are not in a 1.1 request and we cannot chunk, and this is a keepalive |
| or we already have all the data. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Report unbounded containers in the config file. Previously, a typo |
| in the </container> directive could result in the rest of the config |
| file being silently ignored, with undesired defaults used. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Make the old_write filter use the ap_f* functions for the buffering. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Move more code from the http module into the core server. This |
| is core code, basically the default handler, the default input |
| and output filters, and all of the core configuration directives. |
| All of this code is required in order for the server to work, with or |
| without HTTP. The server is closer to working without the HTTP |
| module, although there is still more to do. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix a number of SGI compile warnings throughout the server. Fix some |
| bad parameters to apr_bucket_read(). Fix a bad statement in |
| ap_method_in_list(). For the mod_rewrite cache use apr_time_t |
| consistently; we were mixing apr_time_t and time_t in invalid ways |
| before. In load_file(), call apr_dso_error() instead of |
| apr_strerror() so that we get a more specific string on some platforms. |
| PR #6980 [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Allow modules to query the MPM about it's execution profile. This |
| query API can and should be extended in the future, but for now, |
| max_daemons, and threading or forking is a very good start. |
| [Jon Travis <jtravis covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Modify mod_include to send blocks of data no larger than 9k. |
| Without this, mod_include will wait until the whole file is parsed, |
| or the first tag is found to send any data to the client. |
| [Paul J. Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_info, so that <Directory> and <Location> directives are |
| not displayed twice when displaying the current configuration. |
| [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Add config directives to override DEFAULT_ERROR_MSG and |
| DEFAULT_TIME_FORMAT. This was sent in as PR 6193. |
| [Dan Rench <drench xnet.com>] |
| |
| *) Get mod_info building and loading on Win32. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Begin to move protocol independant functions out of mod_http. The goal |
| is to have only functions that are HTTP specific in the http directory. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.13 |
| |
| *) Don't assume that there will always be multiple calls to the byterange |
| filter. It is possible that we will need to do byteranges with only |
| one call to the filter. [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Move the error_bucket definition from the http module to the |
| core server. Every protocol will need this ability, not just |
| HTTP. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.12 |
| |
| *) Modify mod_file_cache to save pre-formatted strings for |
| content-length and last-modified headers for performance. |
| [Mike Abbot <mja trudge.engr.sgi.com>] |
| |
| *) Namespace protect IOBUFSIZ since it is exposed in the API. |
| [Jon Travis <jtravis covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Use "Basic" authentication instead of "basic" in ab, as the spec |
| says we should. [Andre Breiler <andre.breiler rd.bbc.co.uk>] |
| |
| *) Fix a seg fault in mod_userdir.c. We used to use the pw structure |
| without ever filling it out. This fixes PR 7271. |
| [Taketo Kabe <kabe sra-tohoku.co.jp> and |
| Cliff Woolley <cliffwoolley yahoo.com>] |
| |
| *) Add a couple of GCC attribute tags to printf style functions. |
| [Jon Travis <jtravis covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Add the correct language tag for interoperation with the Taiwanese |
| versions of MSIE and Netscape. [Clive Lin <clive CirX.ORG>] PR#7142 |
| |
| *) Migrate the perchild MPM to use the new apr signal child, and |
| APR thread functions. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Close one copy of the CGI's stdout before creating the new process. |
| The CGI will still have stdout, because we have already dup'ed it. |
| This keeps Apache from waiting forever to send the results of a CGI |
| process that has forked a long-lived child process. |
| [Taketo Kabe <kabe sra-tohoku.co.jp>] |
| |
| *) Remove the rest of the pthreads functions from the threaded MPM. |
| This requires the APR support for a signal thread that was just |
| added. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make mod_dir use a fixup for sending a redirect to the browser. |
| Before this, we were using a handler, which doesn't make much |
| sense, because the handler wasn't generating any data, it would |
| either return a redirect error code, or DECLINED. This fits the |
| current hooks better. [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Make the threaded MPM use APR threads instead of pthreads. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get mod_tls to the point where it actually appears to work in all cases. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) implement --enable-modules and --enable-mods-shared for "all" and |
| "most". [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Move the threaded MPM to use APR locks instead of pthread locks. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Rename mpmt_pthread to threaded. This is more in line with the |
| fact that mpmt_pthread shouldn't be using pthreads directly, and |
| it is a smaller name that doesn't tie into anything. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Rename the module structures so that the exported symbol matches |
| the file name, and it is easier to automate the installation |
| process (generating LoadModule directives from the module filenames). |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Remove the coalesce filter. With the ap_f* functions, this filter |
| is no longer needed. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0.11 |
| |
| *) Remove the dexter MPM. Perchild is the same basic idea, but it has the |
| added feature of allowing a uid/gid per child process. If no |
| uid/gid is specified, then Perchild behaves exactly like dexter. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get perchild building again. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Don't disable threads just because we are using the prefork MPM. |
| If somebody wants to compile without threads, they must now add |
| --disable-threads to the configure command line. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Begin to move the calls to update_child_status into common code, so |
| that each individual MPM does not need to update the scoreboard itself. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow mod_tls to compile under Unix boxes where openssl has been |
| installed to the system include files. |
| [Gomez Henri <new-httpd slib.fr>] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the mod_tls configure process. This should remove any need |
| to hand-edit any files. We require OpenSSL 0.9.6 or later, but |
| configure doesn't check that yet. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add a very early prototype of SSL support (in mod_tls.c). It is |
| vital that you read modules/tls/README before attempting to build |
| it. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Fix a potential seg fault on all platforms. David Reid fixed this |
| on BEOS, but the problem could happen anywhere, so we don't want |
| to #ifdef it. [Cliff Woolley <cliffwoolley yahoo.com>] |
| |
| *) Add new LogFormat directive, %D, to log time it takes to serve a |
| request in microseconds. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Change AddInputFilter and AddOutputFilter to SetInputFilter and |
| SetOutputFilter. This corresponds nicely with the other Set |
| directives, which operate on containers while the Add* directives |
| tend to work directly on extensions. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the header handling a bit. This uses the apr_brigade_* |
| functions for the buffering so that we don't need to compute |
| the length of the headers before we actually create the header |
| buffer. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow filters to buffer data using the ap_f* functions. These have |
| become macros that resolve directly to apr_brigade_*. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get the Unix MPM's to do a graceful restart again. If we are going |
| to register a cleanup with ap_cleanup_scoreboard, then we have to |
| kill the cleanup with the same function, and that function can't be |
| static. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Install all required header files. Without these, it was not |
| possible to compile some modules outside of the server. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix the AliasMatch directive in Apache 2.0. When we brought a patch |
| forward from 1.3 to 2.0, we missed a single line, which broke regex |
| aliases. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) We have a poor abstraction in the protocol. This is a temporary |
| hack to fix the bug, but it will need to be fixed for real. If |
| we find an error while sending out a custom error response, we back |
| up to the first non-OK request and send the data. Then, when we send |
| the EOS from finalize_request_protocol, we go to the last request, |
| to ensure that we aren't sending an EOS to a request that has already |
| received one. Because the data is sent on a different request than |
| the EOS, the error text never gets sent down the filter stack. This |
| fixes the problem by finding the last request, and sending the data |
| with that request. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make the server status page show the correct restart time, and |
| thus the proper uptime. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Move the CGI creation logic from mod_include to mod_cgi(d). This |
| should reduce the amount of duplicate code that is required to |
| create CGI processes. |
| [Paul J. Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) ap_new_connection() closes the socket and returns NULL if a socket |
| call fails. Usually this is due to a connection which has been |
| reset. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Move the Apache version information out of httpd.h and into release.h. |
| This is in preparation for the first tag with the new tag and release |
| system. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Begin restructuring scoreboard code to enable adding back in |
| the ability to use IPC other than shared memory. |
| Get mod_status working on Windows again. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Make mod_status work with 2.0. This will work for prefork, |
| mpmt_pthread, and dexter. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Correct a typo in httpd.conf. |
| [Kunihiro Tanaka <tanaka apache.or.jp>] PR#7154 |
| |
| *) Really fix mod_rewrite map lookups this time. [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Get the correct IP address if ServerName isn't set and we can't |
| find a fully-qualified domain name at startup. |
| PR#7170 [Danek Duvall <dduvall eng.sun.com>] |
| |
| *) Make mod_cgid work with SuExec. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Adopt apr user/group name features for mod_rewrite. Eliminates some |
| 'extra' stat's for user/group since they should never occur, and now |
| resolves the SCRIPT_USER and SCRIPT_GROUP, including on WinNT NTFS |
| volumes. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Adopt apr features to simplify mod_includes. This changes the |
| behavior of the USER_NAME variable, unknown uid's are now reported |
| as USER_NAME="<unknown>" rather than the old user#000 result. |
| WinNT now resolves USER_NAME on NTFS volumes. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Adopt apr features for simplifing mod_userdir, and accept the new |
| Win32/OS2 exceptions without hiccuping. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Replace configure --with-optim option by using and saving the |
| environment variable OPTIM instead. This is needed because configure |
| options do not support multiple flags separated by spaces. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fix some byterange handling. If we get a byte range that looks like |
| "-999999" where that is past the end of the file, we should return |
| a PARTIAL CONTENT status code, and return the whole file as one big |
| byterange. This matches the 1.3 handling now. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make the error bucket a real meta-data bucket. This means that the |
| bucket length is 0, and a read returns NULL data. If one of these |
| buckets is passed down after the headers are sent, this data will |
| just be ignored. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) The prefork MPM wasn't killing child processes correctly if a restart |
| signal was received while the process was serving a request. The child |
| process would become the equivalent of a second parent process. If |
| we break out of the accept loop, then we need to do die after cleaning |
| up after ourselves. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Change the Prefork MPM to use SIGWINCH instead of SIGUSR1 for graceful |
| restarts. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Modify the apr_stat/lstat/getfileinfo calls within apache to use |
| the most optimal APR_FINFO_wanted bits. This spares Win32 from |
| performing very expensive owner, group and permission lookups |
| and allows the server to function until these apr_finfo_t fields |
| are implemented under Win32. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Support for typedsafe optional functions - that is functions exported by |
| optional modules, which, therefore, may or may not be present, depending |
| on configuration. See the experimental modules mod_optional_fn_{ex,im}port |
| for sample code. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) filters can now report an HTTP error to the server. This is done |
| by sending a brigade where the first bucket is an error_bucket. |
| This bucket is a simple bucket that stores an HTTP error and |
| a string. Currently the string is not used, but it may be needed |
| to output an error log. The http_header_filter will find this |
| bucket, and output the error text, and then return |
| AP_FILTER_ERROR, which informs the server that the error web page |
| has already been sent. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) If we get an error, then we should remove all filters except for |
| those critical to serving a web page. This fixes a bug, where |
| error pages were going through the byterange filter, even though |
| that made no sense. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Relax the syntax checking of Host: headers in order to support |
| iDNS. PR#6635 [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the byterange filter to use the apr_brigade_partition |
| and apr_bucket_copy functions. This removes a lot of very messy |
| code, and hopefully makes this filter more stable. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Remove AddModule and ClearModuleList directives. Both of these |
| directives were used to ensure that modules could be enabled |
| in the correct order. That requirement is now gone, because |
| we use hooks to ensure that modules are in the correct order. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) When SuExec is specified, we need to add it to the list of |
| targets to be built. If we don't, then any changes to the |
| configuration won't affect SuExec, unless 'make suexec' is |
| specifically run. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Cleaned out open_file from mod_file_cache, as apr now accepts |
| the APR_XTHREAD argument to open a file for consumption by |
| parallel threads on win32. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Correct a bug in determining when we follow symlinks. The code |
| expected a stat -1 result, not an apr_status_t positive error. |
| Also check if the APR_FINFO_USER fields are valid before we |
| follow the link. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Move initgroupgs, ap_uname2id and ap_gname2id from util.c to |
| mpm_common.c. These functions are only valid on some platforms, |
| so they should not be in the main-line code. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Remove ap_chdir_file(). This function is not thread-safe, |
| and nobody is currently using it. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Do not try to run make depend if there are no .c files in the |
| current directory, doing so makes `make depend` fail. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Update highperformance.conf to work with either prefork or |
| pthreads mpms. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Stop checking to see if this is a pipelined request if we know |
| for a fact that it isn't. Basically, if r->connection->keepalive == 0. |
| This keeps us from making an extra read call when serving a 1.0 |
| request. [Ryan Bloom and Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Fix the handling of variable expansion look-ahead in mod_rewrite, |
| i.e. syntax like %{LA-U:REMOTE_USER}, and also fix the parsing of |
| more complicated nested RewriteMap lookups. PR#7087 [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Fix the RFC number mentioned when complaining about a missing |
| Host: header. PR#7079 [Alexey Toptygin <alexeyt wam.umd.edu>] |
| |
| *) Fix an endless loop in ab which occurred when ab was posting |
| and the server dropped the connection unexpectedly. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault while handling request bodies in ap_http_filter(). |
| This problem has been seen with mod_dav usage as well as with |
| requests where the body was just being discarded. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Some adjustment on the handling and automatic setting (via |
| hints.m4) of various compilation flags (eg: CFLAGS). Also, |
| add the capability to specify flags (NOTEST_CFLAGS and |
| NOTEST_LDFLAGS) which are used to compile Apache, but |
| not used during the configuration process. Useful for |
| flags like "-Werror". [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Stop using environment variables to force debug mode or |
| no detach. We now use the -D command line argument to |
| specify the correct mode. -DONE_PROCESS and -DNO_DETACH. |
| [Greg Stein, Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Change handlers to use hooks. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Stop returning copies of filenames from both apr_file_t and |
| apr_dir_t. We pstrdup the filenames that we store in the |
| actual structures, so we don't need to pstrdup the strings again. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) mod_cgi: Fix some problems where the wrong error value was being |
| traced. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) EBCDIC: Fix some missing ASCII conversion on some protocol data. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add generic hooks. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Use a real pool to dup the error log descriptor. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault caused by mod_ext_filter when the external filter |
| program does not exist. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix an output truncation error when on an HTTP >= 1.0 request an |
| object of size between DEFAULT_BUCKET_SIZE and AP_MIN_BYTES_TO_WRITE |
| was served through mod_charset_lite (or anything else that would |
| create a transient bucket in this size range). ap_bucket_make_heap() |
| silently failed (fixed), transient_setaside() discovered it, but |
| ap_save_brigade() ignored it (fixed). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Ignore \r\n or \n when using PEEK mode for input filters. The problem |
| is that some browsers send extra lines at the end of POST requests, and |
| we don't want to delay sending data back to the user just because the |
| browser isn't well behaved. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get SuEXEC working again. We can't send absolute paths to suExec |
| because it refuses to execute those programs. SuEXEC also wasn't |
| always recognizing configuration changes made using the autoconf |
| setup. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow the buildconf process to find the config.m4 files in the correct |
| order. Basically, we can now name config.m4 files as config\d\d.m4, |
| and we will sort them correctly when inserting them into the build |
| process. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get mod_cgid to use apr calls for creating the actual CGI process. |
| This also allows mod_cgid to use ap_os_create_priviledged_process, |
| thus allowing for SuExec execution from mod_cgid. Currently, we do |
| not support everything that standard SuExec supports, but at least |
| it works minimally now. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow SuExec to be configured from the ./configure command line. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Update some of the docs in README and INSTALL to reflect some of |
| the changes in Apache 2.0 [Cliff Woolley <cliffwoolley yahoo.com>] |
| |
| *) If we get EAGAIN returned from the call to apr_sendfile, then we |
| need to call sendfile again. This gets us serving large files |
| such as apache_2.0a9.tar.gz on FreeBSD again. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get the support programs building cleanly again. |
| [Cliff Woolley <cliffwoolley yahoo.com>] |
| |
| *) The Apache/Win32 Apache.exe and dll's now live in bin. The |
| current directory logic now backs up over bin/ to determine the |
| server root from the Apache.exe path. |
| |
| *) Apache/Win32 now follows the standard conventions of mod_foo.so |
| loadable modules, dynamic libs are all named libfoo.dll, and the |
| makefile.win populates the include, lib and libexec directories. |
| |
| *) Apache is now IPv6-capable. On systems where APR supports IPv6, |
| Apache gets IPv6 listening sockets by default. Additionally, the |
| Listen, NameVirtualHost, and <VirtualHost> directives support IPv6 |
| numeric address strings (e.g., "Listen [fe80::1]:8080"). |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Modify the install directory layout. Modules are now installed in |
| modules/. Shared libraries should be installed in libraries/, but |
| we don't have any of those on Unix yet. All install directories |
| are modifyable at configure time. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Install all header files in the same directory on Unix. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get the functions in server/linked into the server, regardless of |
| which modules linked into the server. This uses the same hack |
| for Apache that we use for APR and apr-util to ensure all of the |
| necessary functions are linked. As a part of thise, the CHARSET_EBCDIC |
| was renamed to AP_CHARSET_EBCDIC for namespace protection, and to make |
| the scripts a bit easier. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Rework the RFC1413 handling to make it thread-safe, use a timeout |
| on the query, and remove IPv4 dependencies. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Get all of the auth modules to the point that they will install and |
| be loadable into the server. Our new build/install mechanism expects |
| that all modules will have a common name format. The auth modules |
| didn't use that format, so we didn't install them properly. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) API routines ap_pgethostbyname() and ap_pduphostent() are no longer |
| available. Use apr_getaddrinfo() instead. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Get "NameVirtualHost *" working in 2.0. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Return HTTP_RANGE_NOT_SATISFIABLE if the every range requested starts |
| after the end of the response. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get byterange requests working with responses that do not have a |
| content-length. Because of the way byterange requests work, we have to |
| have all of the data before we can actually do the byterange, so we |
| can compute the content-length in the byterange filter. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get exe CGI's working again on Windows. |
| [Allan Edwards] |
| |
| *) Get mod_cgid and mod_rewrite to work as DSOs by changing the way |
| they keep track of whether or not their post config hook has been |
| called before. Instead of a static variable (which is replaced when |
| the DSO is loaded a second time), use userdata in the process pool. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a9 |
| |
| *) Win32 now requires perl to complete the final install step for users |
| to build + install on Win32. Makefile.win now rewrites @@ServerRoot@ |
| and installs the conf, htdocs and htdocs/manual directories. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Make mod_include use a hash table to associate directive tags with |
| functions. This allows modules to implement their own SSI tags easily. |
| The idea is simple enough, a module can insert it's own tag and function |
| combination into a hash table provided by mod_include. While mod_include |
| parses an SSI file, when it encounters a tag in the file, it does a |
| hash lookup to find the function that implements that tag, and passes |
| all of the relevant data to the function. That function is then |
| responsible for processing the tag and handing the remaining data back |
| to mod_include for further processing. |
| [Paul J. Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Get rid of ap_new_apr_connection(). ap_new_connection() now has |
| fewer parameters: the local and remote socket addresses were removed |
| from the parameter list because all required information is available |
| via the APR socket. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Distribution directory structure reorganized to reflect a |
| normal source distribution with external install targets. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) The MPMs that need multiple segments of shared memory now create |
| two apr_shmem_t variables, one for each shared memory allocation. |
| the problem is that we can't determine how much memory will be required |
| for shared memory allocations once we try to allocate more than one |
| variable. The MM code automatically aligns the shared memory allocations, |
| so we end up needing to pad the amount of shared memory we want based |
| on how many variables will be allocated out of the shared memory segment. |
| It is just easier to create a second apr_shmem_t variable, and two |
| shmem memory blocks. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the export list a bit. This creates a single unified list of |
| functions exported by APR. The export list is generated at configure |
| time, and that list is then used to generate the exports.c file. |
| Because of the way the export list is generated, we only export those |
| functions that are valid on the platform we are building on. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Enable logging the cookie with mod_log_config |
| [Sander van Zoest <sander covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix a segfault in mod_info when it reaches the end of the configuration. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Added lib/aputil/ as a placeholder for utility functions which are not |
| specific to the Apache HTTP Server (but do not make sense with APR). |
| The first utility is "apu_dbm": a set of functions to work with DBM |
| files. This first version can be compiled for SDBM or GDBM databases. |
| [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Complete re-write of mod_include. This makes mod_include a filter that |
| uses buckets directly. This has now served the FAQ correctly. |
| [Paul Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Allow modules to specify the first filter in a sub_request when |
| making the sub_request. This keeps modules from having to change the |
| output_filter immediately after creating the sub-request, and therefore |
| skip the sub_req_output_filter. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Update ab to accept URLs with IPv6 literal address strings (in the |
| format described in RFC 2732), and to build Host header fields in |
| the same format. This allows IPv6 literal address strings to be |
| used with ab. This support has been tested against Apache 1.3 with |
| the KAME patch, but Apache 2.0 does not yet work with this format |
| of the Host header field. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Accomodate an out-of-space condition in the piped logs and the |
| rotatelogs.c code, and no longer churn log processes for this |
| condition. [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) Add support for partial writes with apr_sendfile() to core_output_filter. |
| [Greg Ames] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a8 |
| |
| *) Add a directive to mod_mime so that filters can be associated with |
| a given mime-type. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get multi-views working again. We were setting the path_info |
| field incorrectly if we couldn't find the specified file. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix 304 processing. The core should never try to send the headers |
| down the filter stack. Always, just setup the table in the request |
| record, and let the header filter convert it to data that is ready |
| for the network. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) More fixes for the proxy. There are still bugs in the proxy code, |
| but this has now proxied www.yahoo.com and www.ntrnet.net (my ISP) |
| successfully. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix params for apr_getaddrinfo() call in connect proxy handler. |
| [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) APR: Add new apr_getopt_long function to handle long options. |
| [B. W. Fitzpatrick <fitz red-bean.com>] |
| |
| *) APR: Change apr_connect() to take apr_sockaddr_t instead of hostname. |
| Add generic apr_create_socket(). Add apr_getaddrinfo() for doing |
| hostname resolution/address string parsing and building |
| apr_sockaddr_t. Add apr_get_sockaddr() for getting the address |
| of one of the apr_sockaddr_t structures for a socket. Change |
| apr_bind() to take apr_sockaddr_t. [David Reid and Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Remove the BUFF from the HTTP proxy. This is still a bit ugly, but |
| I have proxied pages with it, cleanup will commence soon. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make the proxy work with filters. This isn't perfect, because we |
| aren't dealing with the headers properly. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Do not send a content-length iff the C-L is 0 and this is a head |
| request. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make cgi-bin work as a regular directory when using mod_vhost_alias |
| with no VirtualScriptAlias directives. PR#6829 [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Remove BUFF from the PROXY connect handling. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Get the default_handler to stop trying to deal with HEAD requests. |
| The idea is to let the content-length filter compute the C-L before |
| we try to send the data. If we can get the C-L correctly, then we |
| should send it in the HEAD response. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) The Header filter can now determine if a body should be sent based |
| on r->header_only. The general idea of this is that if we delay |
| deciding to send the body, then we might be able to compute the |
| content-length correctly, which will help caching proxies to cache |
| our data better. Any handler that doesn't want to try to compute |
| the content-length can just send an EOS bucket without data and |
| everything will just work. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add the referer to the error log if one is available. |
| [Markus Gyger <mgyger itr.ch>] |
| |
| *) Mod_info.c has now been ported to Apache 2.0. As a part of this |
| change, the root of the configuration tree has been exposed to modules |
| as ap_conftree. |
| [Ryan Morgan <rmorgan covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Get the core_output_filter to use the bucket interface directly. |
| This keeps us from calling the content-length filter multiple times |
| for a simple static request. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) We are sending the content-type correctly now. |
| [Ryan Bloom and Will Rowe] |
| |
| *) APR on FreeBSD: Fix a bug in apr_sendfile() which caused us to report |
| a bogus bytes-sent value when the only thing being sent was trailers |
| and writev() returned an error (or EAGAIN). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Get SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT working again. This uses the |
| hints file to determine which platforms define |
| SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) APR: add apr_get_home_directory() [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Initial import of 1.3-current mod_proxy. [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Not all platforms have INADDR_NONE defined by default. Apache |
| used to make this check and define INADDR_NONE if appropriate, |
| but APR needs the check too, and I suspect other applications will |
| as well. APR now defines APR_INADDR_NONE, which is always a valid |
| value on all platforms. |
| [Branko Čibej <brane xbc.nu>] |
| |
| *) Destroy the pthread mutex in lock_intra_cleanup() for PR#6824. |
| [Shuichi Kitaguchi <ki hh.iij4u.or.jp>] |
| |
| *) Relax the syntax checking of Host: headers in order to support |
| iDNS. PR#6635 [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) When reading from file buckets we convert to an MMAP if it makes |
| sense. This also simplifies the default handler because the |
| default handler no longer needs to try to create MMAPs. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) BUFF has been removed from the main server. The BUFF code will remain |
| in the code until it has been purged from the proxy module as well. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Byteranges have been completely re-written to be a filter. This |
| has been tested, and I believe it is working correctly, but it could |
| doesn't work for the Adobe Acrobat plug-in. The output almost matches |
| the output from 1.3, the only difference being that 1.3 includes |
| a content-length in the response, and this does not. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) APR read/write functions and bucket read functions now operate |
| on unsigned integers, instead of signed ones. It doesn't make |
| any sense to use signed ints, because we return the error codes, |
| so if we have an error we should report 0 bytes read or written. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Always compute the content length, whether it is sent or not. |
| The reason for this, is that it allows us to correctly report |
| the bytes_sent when logging the request. This also simplifies |
| content-length filter a bit, and fixes the actual byte-reporing |
| code in mod_log_config.c |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Remove AP_END_OF_BRIGADE definition. This does not signify what |
| it says, because it was only used by EOS and FLUSH buckets. Since |
| neither of those are required at the end of a brigade, this was |
| really signifying FLUSH_THE_DATA, but that can be determined better |
| by checking AP_BUCKET_IS_EOS() or AP_BUCKET_IS_FLUSH. EOS and FLUSH |
| buckets now return a length of 0, which is actually the amount of data |
| read, so they make more sense. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow the core_output_filter to save some data past the end of a |
| request. If we get an EOS bucket, we only send the data if it |
| makes sense to send it. This allows us to pipeline request |
| responses. As a part of this, we also need to allocate mmap |
| buckets out of the connection pool, not the request pool. This |
| allows the mmap to outlive the request. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make blocking and non-blocking bucket reads work correctly for |
| sockets and pipes. These are the only bucket types that should |
| have non-blocking reads, because the other bucket types should |
| ALWAYS be able to return something immediately. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) In the Apache/Win32 console window, accept Ctrl+C to stop the |
| server, but use Ctrl+Break to initiate a graceful restart |
| instead of duplicating behavior. [John Sterling] |
| |
| *) Patch mod_autoindex to set the Last-Modified header based on |
| the directory's mtime, and add the ETag header. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Merge the 1.3 patch to add support for logging query string in |
| such a way that "%m %U%q %H" is the same as "%r". |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Port three log methods from mod_log_config 1.3 to 2.0: |
| CLF compliant '-' byte count, method and protocol. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Add a new LogFormat directive, %c, that will log connection |
| status at the end of the response as follows: |
| 'X' - connection aborted before the response completed. |
| '+' - connection may be kept-alive by the server. |
| '-' - connection will be closed by the server. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Expand APR for WinNT to fully accept and return utf-8 encoded |
| Unicode file names and paths for Win32, and tag the Content-Type |
| from mod_autoindex to reflect that charset if the feature |
| macro APR_HAS_UNICODE_FS is true. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Compute the content length (and add appropriate header field) for |
| the response when no content length is available and we can't use |
| chunked encoding. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Changed ap_discard_request_body() to use REQUEST_CHUNKED_DECHUNK, |
| so that content input filters get dechunked data when using |
| the default handler. Also removed REQUEST_CHUNKED_PASS. |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Add mod_ext_filter as an experimental module. This module allows |
| the administrator to use external programs as filters. Currently, |
| only filtering of output is supported. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Most Apache functions work on EBCDIC machines again, as protocol |
| data is now translated (again). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Introduce ap_xlate_proto_{to|from}_ascii() to clean up some of |
| the EBCDIC support. They are noops on ASCII machines, so this |
| type of translation doesn't have to be surrounded by #ifdef |
| CHARSET_EBCDIC. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_include. tag commands work again, and the server will |
| send the FAQ again. This also allows mod_include to set aside |
| buckets that include partial buckets. |
| [Ryan Bloom and David Reid] |
| |
| *) Add suexec support back. [Manoj Kasichainula] |
| |
| *) Lingering close now uses the socket directly instead of using |
| BUFF. This has been tested, but since all we can tell is that it |
| doesn't fail, this needs to be really hacked on. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow filters to modify headers and have those headers be sent to |
| the client. The idea is that we have an http_header filter that |
| actually sends the headers to the network. This removes the need |
| for the BUFF to send headers. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Charset translation: mod_charset_lite handles translation of |
| request bodies. Get rid of the xlate version of ap_md5_digest() |
| since we don't compute digests of filtered (e.g., translated) |
| response bodies this way anymore. (Note that we don't do it at |
| all at the present; somebody needs to write a filter to do so.) |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Input filters and ap_get_brigade() now have a input mode parameter |
| (blocking, non-blocking, peek) instead of a length parameter. |
| [hackathon] |
| |
| *) Update the mime.types file to the registered media types as |
| of 2000-10-19. PR#6613 [Carsten Klapp <carsten.klapp home.net>, |
| Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Namespace protect some macros declared in ap_config.h |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Support HTTP header line folding with input filtering. |
| [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Mod_include works again. This should still be re-written, but at |
| least now we can serve an SHTML page again. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Begin to remove BUFF from the core. Currently, we keep a pointer |
| to both the BUFF and the socket in the conn_rec. Functions that |
| want to use the BUFF can, functions that want to use the socket, |
| can. They point to the same place. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) apr_psprintf doesn't understand %lld as a format. Make it %ld. |
| [Tomas Ögren <stric ing.umu.se>] |
| |
| *) APR pipes on Unix and Win32 are now cleaned up automatically when the |
| associated pool goes away. (APR pipes on OS/2 were already had this |
| logic.) This resolvs a fatal file descriptor leak with CGIs. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) The final line of the config file was not being read if there was |
| no \n at the end of it. This was caused by apr_fgets returning |
| APR_EOF even though we had read valid data. This is solved by |
| making cfg_getline check the buff that was returned from apr_fgets. |
| If apr_fgets return APR_EOF, but there was data in the buf, then we |
| return the buf, otherwise we return NULL. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Piped logs work again in the 2.0 series. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Restore functionality broken by the mod_rewrite security fix: |
| rewrite map lookup keys and default values are now expanded |
| so that the lookup can depend on the requested URI etc. |
| PR #6671 [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Tighten up the syntax checking of Host: headers to fix a |
| security bug in some mass virtual hosting configurations |
| that can allow a remote attacker to retrieve some files |
| on the system that should be inaccessible. [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Add a pool bucket type. This bucket is used for data allocated out |
| of a pool. If the pool is cleaned before the bucket is destroyed, then |
| the data is converted to a heap bucket, allowing it to survive the |
| death of the pool. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add a flush bucket. This allows modules to signal that the filters |
| should all flush whatever data they currently have. There is no way |
| to actually force them to do this, so if a filter ignores this bucket, |
| that's life, but at least we can try with this. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add an output filter for sub-requests. This filter just strips the |
| EOS bucket so that we don't confuse the main request's core output |
| filter by sending multiple EOS buckets. This change also makes sub |
| requests start to send EOS buckets when they are finished. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Make ap_bucket_(read|destroy|split|setaside) into macros. Also |
| makes ap_bucket_destroy a return void, which is okay because it |
| used to always return APR_SUCCESS, and nobody ever checked its |
| return value anyway. |
| [Cliff Woolley <cliffwoolley yahoo.com>] |
| |
| *) Remove the index into the bucket-type table from the buckets |
| structure. This has now been replaced with a pointer to the |
| bucket_type. Also add some macros to test the bucket-type. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Renamed all MODULE_EXPORT symbols to AP_MODULE_DECLARE and all symbols |
| for CORE_EXPORT to AP_CORE_DECLARE (namespace protecting the wrapper) |
| and retitled API_EXPORT as AP_DECLARE and APR_EXPORT as APR_DECLARE. |
| All _VAR_ flavors changes to _DATA to be absolutely clear. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Add support for /, //, //servername and //server/sharename |
| parsing of <Directory> blocks under Win32 and OS2. |
| [Tim Costello, William Rowe, Brian Harvard] |
| |
| *) Remove the function pointers from the ap_bucket type. They have been |
| replaced with a global table. Modules are allowed to register bucket |
| types and use then use those buckets. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) mod_cgid: In the handler, shut down the Unix socket (only for write) |
| once we finish writing the request body to the cgi child process; |
| otherwise, the client doesn't hit EOF on stdin. Small request bodies |
| worked without this change (for reasons I don't understand), but large |
| ones didn't. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Remove file bucket specific information from the ap_bucket type. |
| This has been moved to a file_bucket specific type that hangs off |
| the data pointer in the ap_bucket type. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Input filtering now has a third argument. This is the amount of data |
| to read from lower filters. This argument can be -1, 0, or a positive |
| number. -1 means give me all the data you have, I'll deal with it and |
| let you know if I need more. 0 means give me one line and one line |
| only. A positive number means I want no more than this much data. |
| |
| Currently, only 0 and a positive number are implemented. This allows |
| us to remove the remaining field from the conn_rec structure, which |
| has also been done. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Big cleanup of the input filtering. The goal is that http_filter |
| understands two conditions, headers and body. It knows where it is |
| based on c->remaining. If c->remaining is 0, then we are in headers, |
| and http_filter returns a line at a time. If it is not 0, then we are |
| in body, and http_filter returns raw data, but only up to c->remaining |
| bytes. It can return less, but never more. |
| [Greg Ames, Ryan Bloom, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) mod_cgi: Write all of the request body to the child, not just what |
| the kernel would accept on the first write. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Back out the change that moved the brigade from the core_output_filters |
| ctx to the conn_rec. Since all requests over a given connection |
| go through the same core_output_filter, the ctx pointer has the |
| correct lifetime. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix another bug in the send_the_file() read/write loop. A partial |
| send by apr_send would cause unsent data in the read buffer to |
| get clobbered. Complete making send_the_file handle partial |
| writes to the network. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix a couple of type fixes to allow compilation on AIX again |
| [Victor J. Orlikowski <v.j.orlikowski gte.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix bug in send_the_file() which causes offset to be ignored |
| if there are no headers to send. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Handle APR_ENOTIMPL returned from apr_sendfile in the core |
| filter. Useful for supporting Windows 9* with a binary |
| compiled on Windows NT. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a7 |
| |
| *) Reimplement core_output_filter to buffer/save bucket brigades |
| across multiple calls to the core_filter. The brigade will be |
| sent when either MIN_BYTES_TO_SEND or MAX_IOVEC_TO_WRITE |
| thresholds are hit or the EOS bucket is received. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Create experimental filter (buffer_filter) that coalesces bytes |
| into one large buffer before invoking the next filter in the |
| chain. This filter is particularly useful with the current |
| implementation of mod_autoindex when it inserted above the |
| chunk_filter. mod_autoindex generates a lot of brigades that |
| containing buckets holding just a few bytes each. The |
| buffer_filter coalesces these buckets into a single large bucket. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Add apr_sendfile() support into the core_output_filter. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Add apr_sendv() support into the core_output_filter. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_log_config so that it compiles cleanly with BUFFERED_LOGS |
| [Mike Abbott <mja sgi.com>] |
| |
| *) Remove ap_send_fb. This is no longer used in Apache, and it doesn't |
| make much sense, because Apache uses buckets instead of BUFFs now. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) send_the_file now falls back to a read/write loop on platforms that |
| do not have sendfile. |
| [Ryan Bloom and Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Install apachectl correctly, and substitute the proper values so |
| that it works again. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Better(??) handle platforms that lack sendfile(). |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) APR now has UUID generation/formatting/parsing support. |
| [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Begin the http_filter. This is an input filter that understands |
| the absolute basic amount required to parse an HTTP Request. The |
| goal is to be able to split headers from request body before passing |
| the data back to the other filters. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Bring forward from 1.3.13 the config directory implementation |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) install apxs if it is created |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Added APR_IS_STATUS_condition test macros to eliminate canonical error |
| conversions. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Now that we have ap_add_input_filter(), rename ap_add_filter() to |
| ap_add_output_filter(). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Multiple build and configuration fixes |
| Build process: |
| |
| -add datadir and localstatedir substitutions |
| -fix layout name |
| -fix logfilename misspelling |
| -fix evaluation of installation dir variables and |
| -replace $foobar by $(foobar) to be usefull in the makefile |
| |
| Cross compile: |
| |
| -add rules for cross-compiling in rules.mk. Okay, rule to check for |
| $CC_FOR_BUILD is still missing |
| -use CHECK_TOOL instead of CHECK_PROG for ranlib |
| -add missing "AR=@AR@" to severaly Makefile.in's |
| -cache result for "struct rlimit" |
| -compile all helper programs with native and cross compiler |
| and use the native version to generate header file |
| [Rüdiger Kuhlmann <Tadu gmx.de>] |
| |
| *) Prepare our autoconf setup for autoconf 2.14a and for cross- |
| compiling. |
| [Rüdiger Kuhlmann <Tadu gmx.de>] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug where a client which only sends \n to delimit header |
| lines (netcat) gets a strange looking HTTP_NOT_IMPLEMENTED |
| message. Start working on ebcdic co-existance with input |
| filtering. |
| [William Rowe, Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) If mod_so is enabled in the server always create libexec, even |
| if there are no modules installed in this directory. This is a |
| requirement for APXS to work correctly. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Connection oriented output filters are now stored in the |
| conn_rec instead of the request_rec. This allows us to add the |
| output filter in the pre-connection phase instead of the |
| post_read_request phase, which keeps us from trying to write an |
| error page before we have a filter to write to the network. |
| [Ryan Bloom, Jeff Trawick, and Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Cleaning up an mmap bucket no longer deletes the mmap. An |
| mmap can be used across multiple buckets (default_handler with |
| byte ranges, mod_file_cache, mod_mmap_static), so cleanup of |
| the mmap itself can't be associated with the bucket. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add .dll caching directive ISAPICacheFile to mod_isapi. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Radical surgery to improve mod_isapi support under Win32. |
| Includes a number of newer ServerSupportFunction calls, support |
| for ReadClient (in order to retrieve POSTs greater than 48KB), |
| and general bug fixes to more reliably load ISAPI .dll's and |
| prevent leaking handle resources. Note: There are still |
| discrepancies between IIS's and Apache's ServerVariables, and |
| async calls are still not supported. Additional warnings are |
| logged to facilitate debugging of unsupported ISAPI calls. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Add input filtering to Apache. The basic idea for the input |
| filters is the same as the ideas for output filters. The biggest |
| difference is that instead of calling ap_pass_brigade, ap_get_brigade |
| should be called, and the order of execution for the filter itself is |
| different. When writing an output filter, a brigade is passed in, |
| and filters operate directly on that brigade, when done, they call |
| ap_pass_brigade. Input filters are the exact opposite. Because input |
| is not a push operation, filters first call ap_get_brigade. When this |
| function returns, the input filter will be left with a valid brigade. |
| The input filter should then operate on the brigade, and return. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix building on BSD/OS using its native make. The build system |
| falls back to the BSD .include directive on that host platform. |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Expand dbmmanage to allow -d -m -s -p options for Crypt, MD5, |
| SHA1 and plaintext password encodings. Make feature tests a |
| bit more flexible. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Charset translation: mod_charset_lite handles output content |
| translation in a filter. mod_charset_lite no longer ignores |
| subrequests. A bunch of cruft related to BUFF's support for |
| translating request and response bodies was removed. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Move the addition of the CORE filter to the post_read_request |
| hook in http_core.c. This removes the need to add the filter in |
| multiple places and allows for an SSL module to be added much |
| simpler. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: CVE-2000-0913 (cve.mitre.org) |
| Fix a security problem that affects certain configurations of |
| mod_rewrite. If the result of a RewriteRule is a filename that |
| contains expansion specifiers, especially regexp backreferences |
| $0..$9 and %0..%9, then it may be possible for an attacker to |
| access any file on the web server. [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug where errors that are detected during early request parsing |
| don't produce visible HTTP error messages at the browser, because |
| the core_filter wasn't present. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Provide apr_socklen_t as a portability aid. |
| [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) Overhaul of dbmmanage to allow a groups arg (as in Apache 1.2) |
| as well as a comment arg to the add, adduser and update cmds. |
| update allows the user to clear or preserve pw/groups/comment. |
| Fixed a bug in dbmmanage that prevented the check option from |
| parsing a password followed by :group... text. Corrected the |
| seed calcualation for Win32 systems, and added -lsdbm support. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Configured mod_auth_dbm to compile with sdbmlib under Win32. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Avoid a segfault when parsing .htaccess files. An |
| uninitialized tree pointer was passed to ap_build_config(). |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Change the way that inet_addr & inet_network are checked for |
| in APR's configure process to allow BeOS BONE to correctly |
| find them. With this change BeOS BONE now builds from source |
| with no problems. [David Reid] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug in apr_create_process() for Unix. The NULL signifying |
| the end of the parameters to execve() was stored in the wrong |
| location, overlaying the storage beyond the newargs[] array and |
| also passing uninitialized storage to execve(), which would |
| sometimes fail with EFAULT. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug parsing configuration file containers. With a sequence |
| like this in the config file |
| |
| <IfModule mod_kilroy.c> |
| any stuff |
| </IfModule> |
| <IfModule mod_lovejoy.c> |
| (blank line) |
| any stuff |
| </IfModule> |
| |
| the second container would be terminated at the blank line due to |
| sediment in the buffer from reading the prior </IfModule> and an |
| error message would be generated for the real </IfModule> for the |
| second container. Also due to this problem, any two characters |
| could be used for "</" in the close of a container. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) ap_add_filter prototype changed to remove the ctx pointer. The |
| pointer still remains in the filter structure, but it can not be |
| a part of the ap_add_filter prototype. The reason is that when |
| the core uses AddFilter to add a filter to the stack it doesn't |
| know how to allocate the ctx pointer, or even how much memory should |
| be allocated. The filters will have to be responsible for allocating |
| the ctx memory when they need it. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add an AddFilter directive. This directive takes a list of filters |
| that should be activated for the requested resource. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) apr_snprintf(): Get quad format strings working on OS/390 (and perhaps |
| some other platforms). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Modify mod_include to be a filter. Currently, it has only been tested |
| on actual files, but it should work for CGI scripts too. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) apr_putc(), apr_puts() for Unix: handle buffered files and interrupted |
| writes. apr_flush() for Unix: handle interrupted writes. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) NameVirtualHost can now take "*" as an argument instead of |
| an IP address. This allows you to create a purely name-based |
| virtual hosting server that does not have any IP addresses in |
| the configuration file and which ignores the local address |
| of any connections. PR #5595, PR #4455 [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Fix some compile warnings in mod_mmap_static.c |
| [Mike Abbott <mja sgi.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix chunking problem with CGI scripts. The general problem was that |
| the CGI modules were adding an EOS bucket and then the core added an |
| EOS bucket. The chunking filter finalizes the chunked response when it |
| encounters an EOS bucket. Because two EOS buckets were sent, we |
| finalized the response twice. The fix is to make sure we only send one |
| EOS, by utilizing a flag in the request_rec. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) apr_put_os_file() now sets up the unget byte appropriately on Unix |
| and Win32. Previously, the first read from an apr_file_t set up via |
| apr_put_os_file() would return a '\0'. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Mod_cgid now creates a single element bucket brigade, with a pipe |
| bucket, instead of using BUFF's and ap_r*. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) APRVARS.in no longer overwrites the EXTRA_LIBS variable. |
| [Mike Abbott <mja sgi.com>] |
| |
| *) Remove ap_bopenf from buff code. This required modifying the file_cache |
| code to use APR file's directly instead of going through BUFFs. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix compile break on some platforms for mod_mime_magic.c |
| [John K. Sterling <sterling covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Fix merging of AddDefaultCharset directive. |
| PR #5872 (1.3) [Jun Kuriyama <kuriyama imgsrc.co.jp>] |
| |
| *) Minor revamp of the rlimit sections of code. We now test |
| explicitly for setrlimit and getrlimit. Also, unixd_set_rlimit() |
| is now "available" even if the platform doesn't support |
| the rlimit family (it's just a noop though). [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Migrate the pre-selection of which MPM to use for specific |
| platforms to hints.m4, which contains (or should contain) |
| all platform specific "hints". [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Remove IOLs from Apache. With filtering, IOLs are no longer necessary |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add tables with non-string/binary values to APR. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fix some bad calls to ap_log_rerror() in mod_rewrite. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Update PCRE to version 3.2. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Change the way buckets' destroy functions are called so that |
| they can be more directly used when changing the type of a |
| bucket in place. [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Add generic support for reference-counting the resources used by |
| buckets, and alter the HEAP and MMAP buckets to use it. Change |
| the way buckets are initialised to support changing the type of |
| buckets in place, and use it when setting aside TRANSIENT buckets. |
| Change the implementation of TRANSIENT buckets so that it can be |
| mostly shared with IMMORTAL buckets, which are now implemented. |
| [Tony Finch] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a6 |
| |
| *) Add support to Apache and APR for dsos on OS/390. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Add a chunking filter to Apache. This brings us one step closer |
| to removing BUFF. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) ap_add_filter now adds filters in a LIFO fashion. The first filter |
| added to the stack is the last filter to be called. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Apache 2.0 has been completely documented using Scandoc. The |
| docs can be generated by running 'make docs'. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add filtered I/O to Apache. This is based on bucket brigades, |
| Currently the buckets still use BUFF under the covers, but that |
| should change quickly. The only currently written filter is the |
| core filter which just calls ap_bwrite. [The Apache Group] |
| |
| *) APR locks on Unix: Let APR_LOCKALL locks work when APR isn't |
| built with thread support. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Abort configuration if --with-layout was specified and there's |
| no layout definition file. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add support for '--with-port=n' option to configure. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add support for extension methods for the Allow response header |
| field, and an API routine for accessing r->allowed and the |
| list of extension methods in a unified manner. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) mod_cern_meta: fix broken file reading loop in scan_meta_file(). |
| [Rob Simonson <simo us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Get xlate builds working again. The apr renaming in 2.0a5 broke |
| APACHE_XLATE builds. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) A configuration file parsing problem was fixed. When the |
| configuration file started with an IfModule/IfDefine container, |
| only the last statement in the container would be retained. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a5 |
| |
| *) Perchild is serving pages after passing them to different child |
| processes. There are still a lot of bugs, but this does work. I |
| have made requests against the same installation of Apache, and had |
| different servers use different user IDs to serve the responses. |
| This change moves to using socketpair instead of an AF_UNIX socket. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Perchild MPM still doesn't work perfectly, but it is serving pages. |
| It can't seem to pass between child processes yet, but I think we |
| are closer now than before. This moves us back to using Unix |
| Domain Sockets. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) libapr functions and types renamed with apr_ prefix. |
| #include "apr_compat.h" for 1.3.x backwards compat |
| [Perl] |
| |
| *) Fix problems with APR sockaddr handling on Win32. It didn't always |
| return the right information on the local socket address. |
| [Gregory Nicholls <gnicholls level8.com>] |
| |
| *) ap_recv() on Win32: Set bytes-read to 0 on error. |
| [Gregory Nicholls <gnicholls level8.com>] |
| |
| *) Add an option to not detach from the controlling terminal without |
| going into single process mode. This allows for much easier |
| debugging of the process startup code. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) ab: don't use perror() to report the failure of an APR function. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Make dexter, mpmt_pthread, and perchild MPMs not destroy the |
| scoreboard on graceful restarts. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix segfault/SIGSEGV when running gzip from mod_mime_magic.c. |
| An invalid ap_proc_t was passed to ap_create_process(). |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Allow modules to register filters. Those filters are still |
| never called, but this is a step in the right direction. |
| [Ryan Bloom and Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Register the mod_cgid daemon process for cleanup so that it is |
| killed at termination if it does not die when the parent gets |
| SIGTERM. This change is to fix occasional problems where the |
| process stays around. Bugs in similar logic in mod_rewrite and |
| mod_include were also fixed. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug in the time handling. Basically, we were imploding a time |
| in ap_parseHTTPdate, but it had bogus data in the exploded time format. |
| Namely, tm_usec and tm_gmtoff were not filled out. ap_implode_time |
| uses those two fields to adjust the time value. Because of the HTTP |
| spec, both of those values can be zero'ed out safely. This fixes |
| the bug correctly. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix a couple of place in the Windows code where the wrong error |
| code was being returned. [Gregory Nicholls <gnicholls level8.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix POOL_DEBUG (at least for prefork mpm). [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Added the APR_EOL_STR macro for platform dependent differences in |
| logfiles and other raw text (such as all APR files). Fixes logfiles |
| not terminated with cr/lf sequences in Win32. [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Move all strings functions in APR to src/lib/apr/strings and create |
| apr_strings.h for the prototypes. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) APR lock fixes: when using SysV sems, flock(), or fcntl(), be sure |
| to repeat the syscall until we stop getting EINTR. I noticed a |
| related problem at termination (SIGTERM) on FreeBSD when using |
| fcntl(). Apache 1.3 had these new loops too. Also, make the flock() |
| implementation work properly with child init. Previously, ap_lock() |
| was essentially a no-op because all children were using different |
| locks and thus nobody ever blocked. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) The htdocs/ tree has been moved out of the CVS source tree into |
| a separate area for easier development. This has NO EFFECT on |
| end-users or Apache installations. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Integrate the mod_dav module for WebDAV protocol handling. This |
| adds the dav and dav_fs modules, the SDBM library, and additional |
| XML handling utilities. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Clean out obsolete names (from httpd.h) for the HTTP Status Codes |
| [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Update the lib/expat-lite/ library (bring forward changes from |
| the Apache 1.3 repository). [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) If sizeof(long long) == sizeof(long), then prefer long in APR |
| configure.in. [Dave Hill <ddhill zk3.dec.com>] |
| |
| *) Add ap_sendfile for Tru64 Unix. Also, add an error message for |
| machines where sendfile is detected, but nobody has written ap_sendfile. |
| [Dave Hill <ddhill zk3.dec.com>] |
| |
| *) Compile fixes in mod_mmap_static. [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) ab would start up more connections than needed, then quit when the |
| desired number were finished. Also fixed a logic error involving |
| ab keepalives. [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) WinNT: Implement non-blocking pipes with timeouts to communicate |
| with CGIs. Apache 2.0a4 had non-blocking pipes but without |
| timeouts (i.e, if a timeout was specified, the pipe reverted to |
| a full blocking pipe). Now the behaviour is more in line with |
| Unix non-blocking pipes. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) WinNT: Implement accept socket reuse. Using mod_file_cache to |
| cache open file handles along with accept socket reuse enables |
| Apache 2.0 to serve non-keepalive requests for static files at |
| 3x the rate of Apache 1.3.(e.g, Apache 1.3 will serve 400 rps |
| and Apache 2.0 will serve almost 1200 rps on my system). |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Merge mod_mmap_static function into mod_file_cache. mod_file_cache |
| supports two config directives, mmapfile (same behavious as |
| mod_mmap_static) and cachefile. Use the cachefile directive |
| to cache open file handles. This directive only works on systems |
| that have implemented the ap_sendfile API. cachefile works today |
| on Windows NT, but has not been tested on any flavors of Unix. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the configuration. With the last few changes the |
| configuration process automatically: |
| inherits information about how to build from APR. Allowing |
| APR to inform Apache that it should or should not use -ldl |
| |
| Detects which mod_cgi should be used mod_cgi or mod_cgid, |
| based on the threading model |
| |
| Apache calls APR's configure process before finishing it's |
| configuration processing, allowing for more information flow |
| between the two. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| |
| *) Change Unix and Win32 ap_setsockopt() so that APR_SO_NONBLOCK |
| with non-zero argument makes the socket non-blocking. BeOS and |
| OS/2 already worked this way. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) ap_close() now calls ap_flush() for buffered files, so write |
| operations work a whole lot better on buffered files. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix error messages issued from MPMs which explain where to change |
| compiled-in limits (e.g., ThreadsPerChild, MaxClients, StartTreads). |
| [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) ap_create_pipe() now leaves pipes in blocking state. (This helps |
| reduce the number of syscalls on Unix.) ap_set_pipe_timeout() is |
| now the way that the blocking state of a pipe is manipulated. |
| ap_block_pipe() is gone. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Correct the problem where the only local host name that the IP stack |
| can discover are 'undotted' private names. If no fully qualified |
| domain name can be identified, the default ServerName will be set to |
| the machine's IP address string. A warning is always provided if the |
| ServerName not specified, but assumed. Solves PR6215 [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Repair problems with config file processing which caused segfault |
| at init when virtual hosts were defined and which caused ServerName to |
| be ignored when there was no valid DNS setup. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Removed pointless ap_is_aborted macro function. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Add ap_sendfile implementation for AIX |
| [Victor J. Orlikowski] |
| |
| *) Repair C++ compatibility in ap_config.h, apr_file_io.h, |
| apr_network_io.h, and apr_thread_proc.h. |
| [Tyler J. Brooks <tylerjbrooks home.com>, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Bring the allocation and pool debugging code back into a working |
| state. This will need to be tested as so far it's only been used on |
| BeOS. [David Reid] |
| |
| *) Change configuration command setup to be properly typesafe when in |
| maintainer mode. Note that this requires a compiler that can initialise |
| unions. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Turn on buffering for config file reads. Part of this was to |
| repair buffered I/O support in Unix and implement buffered |
| ap_fgets() for all platforms. [Brian Havard, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Win32: Fix problem where UTC offset was not being set correctly |
| in the access log. Problem reported on news group by Jerry Baker. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix segfault when reporting this type of syntax error: |
| "</container> without matching <container> section", where |
| container is VirtualHost or Directory or whatever. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: CAN-2000-1204 (cve.mitre.org) |
| Prevent the source code for CGIs from being revealed when |
| using mod_vhost_alias and the CGI directory is under the document root |
| and a user makes a request like http://www.example.com//cgi-bin/cgi |
| as reported in <news:960999105.344321 ernani.logica.co.uk> |
| [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Add support for the new Beos NetwOrking Environment (BONE) |
| [David Reid] |
| |
| *) xlate: ap_xlate_conv_buffer() now tells the caller when the |
| final input char is incomplete; ap_bwrite_xlate() now handles |
| incomplete final input chars. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Yet another update to saferead/halfduplex stuff -- need to ensure |
| that a bhalfduplex call occurs before logging or else DNS and |
| such can delay the last packet of the response. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Some syscall reduction in APR on unix -- don't seek when setting |
| up an mmap; and don't fcntl() more than once per socket. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) When mod_cgid is started as root, the cgi daemon now switches |
| to the configured User/Group (like other httpd processes) |
| instead of continuing as root. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) The prefork MPM now uses an APR lock for the accept() mutex. |
| It has not been getting a lock at all recently. httpd -V now |
| displays APR's selection of the lock mechanism instead of the |
| symbols previously respected by prefork. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Change the mmap() feature test to check only for existence. |
| The previous check required features not used by Apache. |
| [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Fix a couple of bugs in mod_cgid: The cgi arguments were |
| sometimes mangled. The len parm to accept() was not |
| initialized, leading sometimes to an endless loop of failed |
| accept() calls on OS/390 and anywhere else that failed the call |
| if the len was negative. Use <sys/un.h> for struct sockaddr_un |
| instead of declaring it ourselves to fix a compilation problem |
| on Solaris. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add Resource limiting code back into Apache 2.0. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix zombie process problem with mod_cgi. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Port mod_mmap_static to 2.0. Make it go faster. [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Fix storage overlay when loading dsos. Symptom: Apache dies at |
| initialization if ALLOC_DEBUG is defined; no known symptom |
| otherwise. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix typo in configure script when checking for mod_so. bash |
| doesn't seem to have a problem but /bin/sh on Solaris does. |
| Symptom: "./configure: test: unknown operator ==" |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Rebind the Win32 NT and 9x services control into the MPM. |
| All console, WinNT SCM and Win9x pseudo-service control code is |
| now wrapped within the WinNT MPM. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Make a copy of getenv("PATH") before storing for later use. Some |
| getenv() implementations use the same storage for successive calls. |
| CGIs on OS/390 had a bad PATH due to this. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Server Tokens work in 2.0 again. This also propogates the change |
| to allow just the product name in the server string using |
| PRODUCT_ONLY. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a4 |
| |
| *) EBCDIC: Rearrange calls to ap_checkconv() so that most handlers |
| won't need to call it. [Greg Ames, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Move pre_config hook call to between configuration read and config |
| tree walk. This allows all modules to implement pre_config hooks |
| and know that they will be called at an appropriate time. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) mod_cgi, mod_cgid: Make ScriptLog directive work again. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add pre-config hooks back to all modules. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix a SIGSEGV in ap_md5digest(), which is used when you have |
| ContentDigest enabled and we can't/don't mmap the file. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) We now report the correct line number for syntax errors in config |
| files. [Ryan Bloom, Greg Stein, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Brought mod_auth_digest up to synch with 1.3, fixed ap_time_t- |
| related bugs, and changed shmem/locking to use apr API. Shared-mem |
| is currently disabled, however, because of problems with graceful |
| restarts. [Ronald Tschalär] |
| |
| *) Fix corruption of IFS variable in --with-module= handling. |
| Depending on the user's shell or customization thereof, there |
| would be errors generating ap_config_auto.h later in the configure |
| procedure. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) mod_cgi: Restore logging of stderr from child process when ScriptLog |
| isn't used (as in 1.3), except that on Unix it is now logged via |
| ap_log_rerror() instead of by the child having STDERR_FILENO refer |
| to the error log. [Greg Ames, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add '-D' argument processing for run time configuration defines. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Organize http_main.c as independent code, such that no code or |
| global data is exported from it. WIN32 will dynamically link it |
| to the server core, so this will prevent mutual dependency. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Add separate dynamic linkage tags APR_EXPORT(), APR_EXPORT_NONSTD() |
| and APR_VAR_EXPORT to correctly resolve apr functions and globals. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) Add Win9x service execution and Ctrl+C/Ctrl+Break/Shutdown handlers. |
| [William Rowe, Jan Just Keijser <KEIJSERJJ logica.com>] |
| |
| *) Add mod_charset_lite for configuring character set translation. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add '-n' option to htpasswd to make it print its user:pw record |
| on stdout rather than having to frob a text file. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fix saferead. Basically, we flush the output buffer if a read on the |
| input will block. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) APR: Add ap_xlate_get_sb() so that an app can find out whether or not |
| a conversion is single-byte only. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) BEOS: ap_shutdown should return APR_SUCCESS or errno. Note that |
| the BeOS 5.0 documentation says that shutdown doesn't work yet. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fix some minor errors where pid was being manipulated as an int |
| instead of the portable pid_t. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fix some error log prints that were printing the pointer to a |
| structure rather than the pid within the structure. |
| [Jeff Trawick, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) ab: Fix a command-line processing bug; track bad headers in |
| err_response; support reading headers up to 2K. |
| [Ask Bjoern Hansen <ask valueclick.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix ap_resolve_env() so that it handles new function added in a prior |
| alpha (see "Added the capability to do ${ENVVAR} constructs in the |
| config file.") as well as the constructs used by mod_rewrite. |
| [Paul Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Apache 2.0 builds and runs on OS/390. [Jeff Trawick, Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Change the EBCDIC support in functions for MD5, SHA1, and base 64 to use |
| APR to perform translation, instead of accessing the hard-coded tables |
| in 1.3's ebcdic.c. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix some bugs (mostly lost 1.3 code) in ab's command-line processing. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Add the ability to hook into the config file reading phase. Basically |
| if a directive is specified EXEC_ON_READ, then when that directive is |
| read from the config file, the assocaited function is executed. This |
| should only be used for those directives that must muck with HOW the |
| server INTERPRETS the config. This should not be used for directives |
| that re-order or replace items in the config tree. Those changes should |
| be made in the pre-config step. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add mod_example to the build system. |
| [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) APR: Add ap_xlate_conv_byte() to convert one char between single- |
| byte character sets. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Pick up various EBCDIC fixes from 1.3 (from Martin |
| Kraemer and Oliver Reh originally according to the change log). |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix a couple of problems in RFC1413 support (controlled by the |
| IdentityCheck directive). Apache did not build the request string |
| properly and more importantly Apache would loop forever if the |
| would-be ident server dropped the connection before sending a |
| properly terminated response. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) apxs works in 2.0. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Reliable piped logs work in 2.0. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Introduce a hash table implementation into APR to be used for |
| replacing tables and other random data structures in Apache. |
| [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Add some more error reporting to htpasswd in the case of problems |
| generating or accessing the temporary file. Also, pass in a |
| buffer if the implementation knows how to use it (i.e., if L_tmpnam |
| is defined). [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Configure creates config.nice now containing your configure |
| options. Syntax: ./config.nice [--more-options] |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Fix various return code problems in APR on Win32. For most of |
| these, APR was returning APR_EEXIST instead of GetLastError()/ |
| WSAGetLastError(). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Make piped logs work again in version 2.0 |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Add VPATH support to UNIX build system of Apache and APR. |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Fix ap_tokenize_to_argv to respect the const arguments that are |
| passed to it. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix mm's memcpy/memset macros, pointer arithmetic was broken. |
| Patch submitted to author. |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Fix mm configuration on Solaris 8 x86 and OS/390. Don't require |
| /sbin in PATH on FreeBSD (all submitted to rse previously) |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix building Pthread-based MPMs on OpenBSD |
| [Sascha Schumann] PR#26 |
| |
| *) Fix ap_readdir() problem on systems where d_name[] field in |
| struct dirent is declared with only one byte. (This problem only |
| affected multithreaded builds.) This caused a segfault during |
| pool cleanup with mod_autoindex on Solaris (Solaris 8 x86, at |
| least). [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Fix some make-portability problems on at least Tru64, Irix |
| and UnixWare. |
| [Sascha Schumann] PR#18, PR#39 |
| |
| *) Add ap_sigwait() to support old-style sigwait() on systems |
| like OS/390 and UnixWare. |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Add POSIX-thread flags for more platforms. |
| [Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) Fix some minor bugs in ap_strerror(). Teach ap_strerror() |
| (on Unix, at least) to handle resolver errors. Fix a bug in |
| the definition of APR_ENOMEM so that ap_strerror() can spit |
| out the correct error message for it. |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a3 |
| |
| *) mod_so reports ap_os_dso_error() if ap_dso_load() fails |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) API: *HOOK* macros now have an AP_ prefix |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Win32: Eliminate redundant calls to initialize winsock. |
| [Tim Costello <timcostello ozemail.com.au>] |
| |
| *) Fix bugs initializing ungetchar for pipes. |
| [Chia-liang Kao <clkao CirX.ORG>] |
| |
| *) The ab program in the src/support directory is now portable using |
| APR. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Support directory is being compiled when the server is built |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) The configure option --with-program-name has been added to allow |
| developers to rename the executable at configure time. This also |
| changes the name of the config files to match the executable's name. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) mod_autoindex: Add `IndexOptions +VersionSort', to nicely sort filenames |
| containing version numbers. [Martin Pool] |
| |
| *) ap_open(..,APR_OS_DEFAULT,..) uses perms 0666 instead of 0777 on |
| Unix; access_log and error_log now created with these perms; non- |
| Unix is unaffected [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Finished move of ap_md5 routines to apr_md5. Removed ap_md5.h. |
| Replaced more magic numbers with MD5_DIGESTSIZE. |
| [William Rowe, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Win32: Get mod_auth_digest compiling and added to the Windows |
| build environment. Not tested and I'd be suprised if it |
| actually works. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Revamp the Win32 make environment. Makefiles have been removed and |
| Apache.dsw created to bring together all the pieces. Create new file |
| os/win32/BaseAddr.ref to define module base addresses (to prevent |
| dll relocation at start-up). |
| [William Rowe, Greg Marr, Tim Costello, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) [EBCDIC] Port Paul Gilmartin's CRLF patch from 1.3. This replaces most |
| of the \015, \012, and \015\012 constants with macros. |
| [Greg Ames] |
| |
| *) Add ap_xlate_open() et al for translation of text between different |
| character sets. The initial implementation requires iconv(). |
| [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) More FAQs and answers from comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix. |
| [Joshua Slive <slive finance.commerce.ubc.ca>] |
| |
| *) CGI output is being timed out now. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Fix the problem with dieing quietly. dupfile now takes a pool which |
| is used by the new apr file. There is no reason to create a new file |
| with the same lifetime as the original file. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Win32: Attempt to eliminate dll relocation at start-up by specifying |
| module base addresses. This will help shooting seg faults |
| in the field. [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) Update Apache on Windows documentation. Add new document |
| describing how to compile Apache on Windows. |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) ap_set_pipe_timeout(), ap_poll(), and APR_SO_TIMEOUT now take |
| microseconds instead of seconds. Some storage leaks and other |
| minor bugs in related code were fixed. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Win32: First cut at getting mod_isapi working under 2.0 |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) First stab at getting mod_auth_digest working under 2.0 |
| quick change summary: |
| - moved the random byte generation (ap_generate_random_bytes) into APR |
| - now uses ap_time_t |
| - compiles and runs on linux |
| - tested with amaya |
| [Brian Martin <bmartin penguincomputing.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32: Move the space stripping of physical service names |
| fix up from Apache 1.3. #include'ing "ap_mpm.h" fixes up an |
| unresolved symbol. Add dependency checking to the |
| CreateService call to ensure TCPIP and AFP (winsock) is started |
| before Apache. |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32: Add code to perform latebinding on functions that may |
| not exist on all levels of Windows where Apache runs. This |
| is needed to allow Apache to start-up on Win95/98. All calls |
| to non portable functions should be protected with |
| ap_oslevel checks to prevent runtime segfaults. |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix fallback default values for SHM_R and SHM_W [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Get lingering_close() working again. [Dean Gaudet, Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Win32: Get non-blocking CGI pipe reads working under Windows NT. |
| This addresses PR 1623. Still need to address timing out runaway |
| CGI scripts. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Win32: Make ap_stat Windows 95/98 friendly |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32: Fix a bug in ap_get_oslevel which causes GetVersionEx() to |
| always fail. Need to initialise the dwOSVersionInfoSize member of the |
| OSVERSIONINFO struct before calling GetVersionEx, so GetVersionEx |
| always fails. |
| |
| The patch also enhances ap_get_oslevel (and the associated enum) to |
| handle selected service packs for NT4, and adds recognition for |
| Windows 2000. This is useful, eg. if we can recognise NT4 SP2 then |
| we can use ReadFileScatter and WriteFileGather in readwrite.c. |
| [Tim Costello <Tim.Costello BTFinancialgroup.com>] |
| |
| *) Get mod_rewrite building and running, and mod_status building for Win NT |
| [Allan Edwards <ake raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Patch to port mod_auth_db to the 2.0 api and also to support |
| Berlekey DB 3.0. It works for me with both Berkeley DB 3.0.55 and |
| 2.7.7. It should work with version 1 as well but I haven't tested it. |
| [Brian Martin <bmartin penguincomputing.com>] |
| |
| *) Get APR DSO code working under Windows. Includes cross platform |
| fixes to mod_so.c. |
| [<Tim.Costello BTFinancialgroup.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix some of the Windows APR time functions. |
| [William Rowe] |
| |
| *) FAQ changes related to tidying up historical documents on the web site. |
| [Joshua Slive <slive finance.commerce.ubc.ca>] |
| |
| *) Move Windows DSO code into APR. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Eliminate apr_win.h and apr_winconfig.h (and the ugly #ifdefs they cause). |
| Now, apr.h and apr_config.h are generated from apr.hw and apr_config.hw |
| at build time. At this point, the server will not compile on Windows because |
| of the recent DSO commits. Fixing those next. |
| [Bill Rowe & Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Added error checking for file I/O APR routines. |
| [Jon Travis <jtravis covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) APR: Don't use the values of resolver error codes for the |
| corresponding APR error codes. On Unix and Win32, return the |
| proper APR error code after a resolver error. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a2 |
| |
| *) Renamed the executable back to httpd on all platforms other |
| than Win32 |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Allow BeOS to survive restarts, log properly and a few |
| small things it had problems with due to the way it setup |
| users and groups. [David Reid] |
| |
| *) Get mod_rewrite working with APR locks |
| [Paul Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Actually remove the sempahore when the lock cleanup routine |
| is called on BeOS. [David Reid] |
| |
| *) Clear hook registrations between reads of the config file. |
| When DSOs are unloaded and re-loaded the old hook pointers may |
| no longer be valid. This fix eliminates potential segfaults. |
| [Allan Edwards <ake raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix a problem with Sigfunc not being defined or bypassed |
| if sigaction() wasn't found. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Fix the locking mechanism on BSD variants. They now use fcntl |
| locks. This allows the server to start and serve pages. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) First cut at getting the Win32 installer to work |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) Get htpasswd compiling under Windows |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] |
| |
| *) Change the log message for a bind() failure to show the |
| interface and port number. [Jeff Trawick] |
| |
| *) Import the documentation from 1.3.12 and bring parts of it |
| up-to-date with respect to the changes that have occurred |
| in 2.0. |
| [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) BeOS MPM updated. CGI bug on BeOS fixed. IP addresses |
| now logged correctly on BeOS. |
| [David Reid] |
| |
| *) Create one makefile for all Win32 distributions (NT/2000/95/98). |
| Makefile.win includes the same user interface as the old |
| Makefile.nt |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>, Jeff Trawick <trawick us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32 exec now uses COMSPEC environment string for command |
| shell path resolution. |
| [William Rowe <wrowe lnd.com>] PR#3715 |
| |
| *) Win32: ap_connect() was not returning correct error condition |
| PR5866 |
| [Allen Prescott <allen clanprescott.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32: ap_open() was broken on Win9x because an NT-specific |
| flag was passed to CreateFile. ap_puts() added an unnecessary |
| '\n'. |
| [Jeff Trawick <trawick us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Put in Korean and Norwegian index.html pages (2.0 and 1.3) |
| which where donated by Lee Kuk Hyun and Lorant Czaran. 'Fixed' |
| confusing ee/et name and made all extensions language/dialect |
| rather than country reflecting. Changed example files to |
| explicit reflect the ISO charset and added a few common |
| ones to the example config [dirkx] |
| |
| *) Extend external module capability. To use this, you call |
| configure with --with-module=path/to/mod1,path/to/mod2,etc. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Backported the various "default charset" fixes from 1.3.12, |
| including the AddDefaultCharset directive. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Added the capability to do ${ENVVAR} constructs in the |
| config file. E.g. 'ServerAdmin ${POSTMASTER}'. As commited |
| it does this on a line by line basis; i.e. if the envvar |
| expands to something with spaces you have to protect it |
| by adding quotes around it (Unless of course you expect it |
| to contains more than one argument. Alternatively you |
| can compile it on a per token basis; which is what people |
| usually expect by setting RESOLVE_ENV_PER_TOKEN. But this |
| hampers fancier hacks. |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik] |
| |
| *) Changed the 'ErrorDocument' syntax in that it NO longer |
| supports the asymetric |
| |
| ErrorDocument 301 "Some message |
| |
| Note the opening " quote, without a closing quote. It now |
| has either the following syntaxes |
| |
| ErrorDocument XXX /local/uri |
| ErrorDocument XXX http://valid/url |
| ErrorDocument XXX "Some Message" |
| |
| The recognition heuristic is: if it has a space it |
| is a message. If it has no spaces and starts with a / |
| or is a valid URL then treat it that way. Otherwise it |
| is assumed to be a message. |
| |
| This breaks backward compatibility but makes live a hell |
| of a lot easier for GUI's and config file parsers. |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik] |
| |
| *) Changed 'CacheNegotiatedDocs' from its present/not-present |
| syntax into a 'on' or 'off' syntax. As it currently is the |
| only non nesting token which uses NO_ARGS and thus is an |
| absolute pain for any config interface automation. This |
| breaks backward compatibility. [Dirk-Willem van Gulik] |
| |
| *) Add ability to add external modules to the build process. This is |
| done with --with-module=/path/to/module. Modules can only be added |
| as static modules at this point. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 2.0a1 |
| |
| *) Fix FreeBSD 3.3 core dump. |
| Basically, ap_initialize() needs to get called before |
| create_process(), since create_process() passes op_on structure |
| to semop() to get a lock, but op_on isn't initialized until |
| ap_initialize() calls setup_lock(). Here is a slight |
| rearrangement to main() which calls ap_initialize() earlier... |
| [Jeff Trawick <trawick us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Enable Apache to use sendfile/TransmitFile API |
| [Bill Stoddard, David Reid, Paul Reder] |
| |
| *) Re-Implement Win32 APR network I/O APIs and most of the file I/O |
| APIs. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Make file I/O and network I/O writev/sendv APIs consistent. |
| Eliminate use of ap_iovec_t and use Posix struct iovec. |
| Use seperate variable on ap_writev to set the number of iovecs |
| passed in and number of bytes written. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Adapt file iol to use APR functions. Replaced ap_open_file() |
| with ap_create_file_iol(). ap_create_file_iol() requires that |
| the file be opened prior to the call using ap_open(). |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Port mod_include and mod_cgi to 2.0 |
| [Paul Reder, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) ap_send{,v}, ap_recv, ap_sendfile API clarification -- |
| bytes_read/bytes_written is always valid (never -1). Plus |
| some fixes to buff.c to correct problems introduced by the |
| errno => ap_status_t changes a while back. Plus a fix to |
| chunked encoding introduced right at the beginning of 2.0. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Revamped UNIX build system to use autoconf and libtool. |
| [Manoj Kasichainula, Sascha Schumann] |
| |
| *) port mod_rewrite to 2.0. [Paul J. Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: More rigorous checking of Host: headers to fix security |
| problems with mass name-based virtual hosting (whether using mod_rewrite |
| or mod_vhost_alias). |
| [Ben Hyde, Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Add back support for UseCanonicalName in <Directory> containers. |
| [Manoj Kasichainula] |
| |
| *) Added APLOG_STARTUP log type. This allows us to write an error |
| message without any of the date and time information. As a part |
| of this change, I also removed all of the calls to fprintf(stderr |
| and replaced them with calls to ap_log_error using APLOG_STARTUP |
| writing to stderr is no longer portable, because we don't direct |
| stderr to the error log on all platforms. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Convert error logging functions to take errno as an argument. |
| This makes our error logs more portable, because some Windows API's |
| don't set errno. This change allows us to still output a valid |
| message on all of our platforms. |
| [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) mod_mime_magic runs in 2.0-dev now. |
| [Paul Reder <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) sendfile has been added to APR. |
| [John Zedlewski <zedlwski Princeton.EDU>] |
| |
| *) buff.c has been converted to no longer use errno. |
| [Manoj Kasichainula] |
| |
| *) mod_speling runs in 2.0-dev now: a bug in readdir_r handling and |
| interface adaption to APR functions did it. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Support DSOs properly on 32-bit HP-UX 11.0 |
| [Dilip Khandekar <dilip cup.hp.com>] |
| |
| *) Updated MM in APR source tree from version 1.0.8 to 1.0.11 |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Cleaned APR build environment integration and bootstrap APR |
| automatically for developers from src/Configure. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fixed building of src/support/htpasswd.c |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) When generating the Location: header, mod_speling forgot |
| to escape the spelling-fixed uri. (Forw-Port from 1.3) |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Moved mod_auth_digest.c from experimental to standard. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Change all pools to APR contexts. This is the first step to |
| incorporating APR into Apache. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Move "handler not found" warning message to below the check |
| for a wildcard handler. [Dirk <dirkm teleport.com>, Roy Fielding] |
| PR#2584, PR#2751, PR#3349, PR#3436, PR#3548, PR#4384, PR#4795, PR#4807 |
| |
| *) Support line-continuation feature in config.option file and |
| allow the loading of multiple option sections at once via |
| ``--with-option=<section1>,<section2>,...'' |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Rebuilt CVS repository with Apache 1.3.9 as basis. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| Changes with Apache MPM |
| |
| *) Use asynchronous AcceptEx() and a completion port to accept and |
| dispatch connections to threads in Windows NT/2000. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Implement WINNT Win32 MPM from original Win32 code in http_main.c |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Implement the APACI --with-option facility |
| (per default used the config.option file). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) MPM BEOS port. [David Reid <abb37 dial.pipex.com>] |
| |
| *) Start to implement module-defined hooks that are a) fast and b) typesafe. |
| Replace pre_connection module call with a register_hook call and |
| implement pre_connection as a hook. The intent is that these hooks will |
| be extended to allow Apache to be multi-protocol, and also to allow the |
| calling order to be specified on a per-hook/per-module basis. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Implement mpm_* methods as "modules". Each method gets its own |
| subdir in src/modules (eg: src/modules/prefork). Selection |
| of method uses Rule MPM_METHOD. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Port the hybrid server from the apache-apr repository as |
| mpm_mpmt_pthread. [Manoj Kasichainula] |
| |
| *) os/unix/unixd.[ch]: detach, setuid, setgid, stuff which will be common |
| amongst the unix MPMs. |
| |
| *) mpm_prefork: throw away all the alarm/timeout crud; and clean up the |
| signal handling for the new world order. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Crude ap_thread_mutex abstraction so that we get the pthread stuff out |
| of alloc.c for now. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Handle partial large writes correctly. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Eliminate conn_rec's pointer to server. All it knows is the base server |
| based on IP/port. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Port a bunch of modules to the new module structure. |
| ["Michael H. Voase" <mvoase midcoast.com.au>] |
| |
| *) I/O layering and BUFF revamp. See docs/buff.txt. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Basic restructuring to introduce the MPM concept; includes various |
| changes to the module API... better described by |
| docs/initial_blurb.txt. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| Changes with Apache pthreads |
| |
| *) New buff option added: BO_TIMEOUT. It describes the timeout for |
| buff operations (generally over a network). |
| [Dean Gaudet, Ryan Bloom, Manoj Kasichainula] |
| |
| *) Created http_accept abstraction. Added 4 new functions (not exported): |
| init_accept(), begin_accepting_requests(), get_request(), |
| stop_accepting_requests() [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix to ap_rprintf call that allows mod_info to work properly. |
| [James Morris <jmorris intercode.com.au>] |
| |
| *) user and ap_auth_type fields were moved from connection_rec to |
| request_rec. [Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| *) Removed the ap_block_alarms and ap_unblock_alarm calls. These aren't |
| needed in a threaded server. |
| |
| *) Initial pthread implementation from from Dean's apache-nspr code. |
| [Bill Stoddard, Ryan Bloom] |
| |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3.9 |
| |
| *) Remove bogus error message when a redirect doesn't set Location. |
| Instead, use an empty string to avoid coredump if the error message |
| was supposed to include a location. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Don't allow configure to include mod_auth_digest unless it is |
| explicitly requested, even if the user asked for all modules. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Translate module names to dll names for OS/2 so that they are no more |
| than 8 characters long and have an extension of "dll" instead of "so". |
| [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Print out pointer to Rule DEV_RANDOM when truerand lib not found. |
| Fix test-compile check to check for randbyte instead of trand32. |
| Use ap_base64encode_binary/decode instead of copy in mod_auth_digest.c |
| and tweak to make Amaya happier. [Ronald Tschalär] |
| |
| *) Ensure that the installed expat include files are world readable, |
| just like the other header files. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Fixed generated AddModule adjustments in APACI's `configure' script |
| in order to allow (new) modules like mod_vhost_alias to be handled |
| correctly (which was touched by the adjustments for mod_alias). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) For binary builds, add -R flag to apachectl to work around the lack of |
| an absolute path to the ./libexec directory where the libhttp.ep file |
| is needed for SHARED_CORE architectures. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) WIN32: Create the CGI script process as DETACHED. This may solve the |
| problem observed by some Win95/98 users where they get CGI script |
| output sent to the console. [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Fix (re)naming in the uuencode/decode section. The ap/ap_ |
| routines are now called ap_base64* and are 'plain' (i.e., no |
| pool access or anything clever). Inside util.c the routines acting |
| like pstrdup are called ap_pbase64encode() and ap_pbase64decode(). |
| The oddly named ap_uuencode(), ap_uudecode() are kept around for |
| now but deprecated. [dirkx] |
| |
| *) Clean up the base64 and SHA1 additions and make sure they are |
| represented in the ApacheCore.def, ApacheCoreOS2.def, and httpd.exp |
| files. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) WIN32: Migrate to InstallShield 5.5 and provide a bit more error |
| checking. Allow compiling on VS 6.0. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Fixed assumption of absolute paths in binbuild.sh. [Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Use TestCompile to search for the truerand library (rather than blindly |
| assuming its existence). If it is not found, complain (but do not |
| exit - yet). [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) We forgot to add the new exported function names to |
| src/support/httpd.exp. [Bill Stoddard, Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Add description of -T command-line option to usage(). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) For "some" platforms (notably, EBCDIC based ones), libos needs to be |
| searched only AFTER libap has been searched, because libap needs |
| some symbols from libos. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Fix conflict with original mod_digest related to the symbol of the |
| module dispatch list (which has to be unique for DSO and follow the |
| usual conventions for the installation procedure). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add a dbm-library check for the "usual places" (-ldbm, -lndbm, -ldb) |
| for other platforms as well. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Make ap_sha1.c compile for EBCDIC platforms: replace remaining LONG |
| types by AP_LONG and replace reference to renamed variable 'ubuf' |
| by 'buffer'. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3.8 [not released] |
| |
| *) Flush the output buffer immediately after sending an error or redirect |
| response, since the result may be needed by the client to abort a |
| long data transfer or restart a series of pipelined requests. |
| [Tom Vaughan <tvaughan aventail.com>, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) PORT: Improved compilation and DSO support on Sequent DYNIX/ptx. |
| [Ian Turner <iant sequent.com>] PR#4735 |
| |
| *) Local struct mmap in http_core.c conflicted with system structure |
| name on DYNIX -- changed to mmap_rec. [Roy Fielding] PR#4735 |
| |
| *) Added updated mod_digest as modules/experimental/mod_auth_digest. |
| [Ronald Tschalär <ronald innovation.ch>] |
| |
| *) Fix a memory leak where the module counts were getting messed |
| up across restarts. [David Harris <dharris drh.net>] |
| |
| *) CIDR addresses such as a.b.c.d/24 where d != 0 weren't handled |
| properly in mod_access. |
| ["Paul J. Reder" <rederpj raleigh.ibm.com>] PR#4770 |
| |
| *) RewriteLock/RewriteMap didn't work properly with virtual hosts. |
| [Dmitry Khrustalev <dima bog.msu.su>] PR#3874 |
| |
| *) PORT: Support for compaq/tandem/com. |
| [Michael Ottati <michael.ottati compaq.com>, dirkx] |
| |
| *) Added SHA1 password encryption support to easy migration from |
| Netscape servers. See support/SHA1 for more information. |
| Caused the separation of ap_md5.c into md5, sha1 and a general |
| ap_checkpass.c with just a validate_passwd routine. Added a |
| couple of flags to support/htpasswd. Some reuse of the to64() |
| function; hence renamed to ap_to64(). |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik, Clinton Wong <clintdw netcom.com>] |
| |
| *) Change for EBCDIC platforms (TPF and BS2000) to correctly deal |
| with ASCII/EBCDIC conversions in "ident" query. |
| [David McCreedy <McCreedy us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Get rid of redefinition warning on MAC_OS_X_SERVER platform. |
| Change "Power Macintosh" to Power* so if uname prints "Power Book" |
| we're still happy on Rhapsody platforms. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) Fix SIGSEGV on some systems because the Vary fix below included |
| a call to table_do with a variable argument list that was not |
| NULL terminated. Replaced with better implementation. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3.7 [not released] |
| |
| *) The "Vary" response header field is now sanitised right before |
| the header is sent back to the client. Multiple "Vary" fields |
| are combined, and duplicate tokens (e.g., "Vary: host, host" or |
| "Vary: host, negotiate, host, accept-language") are reduced to |
| single instances. This is a better solution than the force-no-vary |
| one (which is still valid for clients that can't cope with Vary |
| at all). PR#3118 [Dean Gaudet, Roy Fielding, Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Portability changes for BeOS. [David Reid <abb37 dial.pipex.com>] |
| |
| *) Link DSO's with "gcc -shared" instead of "ld -Bshareable" at |
| least on Linux and FreeBSD for now. |
| [Rasmus Lerdorf] |
| |
| *) Win32: More apache -k restart work. Restarts are now honored |
| immediately and connections in the listen queue are -not- lost. |
| This is made possible by the use of the WSADuplicateSocket() |
| call. The listeners are opened in the parent, duplicated, then |
| the duplicates are passed to the child. The original listen sockets |
| are not closed by the parent across a restart, thus the listen queue |
| is preserved. |
| [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix handling of case when a client has sent "Expect: 100-continue" |
| and we are going to respond with an error, but get stuck waiting to |
| discard the body in the pointless hope of preserving the connection. |
| [Roy Fielding, Joe Orton <jeo101 york.ac.uk>] PR#4499, PR#3806 |
| |
| *) Fix 'configure' to work correctly with SysV-based versions of |
| 'tr' (consistent with Configure's use as well). [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) apxs: Add "-S var=val" option which allows for override of CFG_* |
| built-in values. Add "-e" option which works like -i but doesn't |
| install the DSO; useful for editing httpd.conf with apxs. Fix |
| editing code so that multiple invocations of apxs -a will not |
| create duplicate LoadModule/AddModule entries; apxs can now be |
| used to re- enable/disable a module. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) Win32: Update the server to use Winsock 2. Specifically, link with |
| ws2_32.lib rather than wsock32.lib. This gives us access to |
| WSADuplcateSocket() in addition to some other enhanced comm APIs. |
| Win 95 users may need to update their TCP/IP stack to pick up |
| Winsock 2. (See http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/) |
| [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32: Redirect CGI script stderr (script debug info) into the |
| error.log when CGI scripts fail. This makes Apache on Win32 |
| behave more like Unix. |
| [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Fixed `httpd' usage display: -D was missing. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#4614 |
| |
| *) Fix `make r' test procedure in src/regex/: ap_isprint was not found. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#4561, PR#4562 |
| |
| *) OS/2: Fix problem with accept lock semaphores where server would die with |
| "OS2SEM: Error 105 getting accept lock. Exiting!" |
| [Brian Havard] PR#4505 |
| |
| *) Add DSO support for DGUX 4.x using gcc. Tested on x86 platforms. |
| [Randy Terbush <randy covalent.net>] |
| |
| *) Add the new mass-vhost module (mod_vhost_alias.c) developed and |
| used by Demon Internet, Ltd. [Tony Finch <fanf demon.net>] |
| |
| *) Better GCC detection for DSO flags under Solaris 2 where the `cc' |
| command potentially _is_ GCC. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fix apxs build issues on AIX |
| [Rasmus Lerdorf <rasmus raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) DocumentRoot Checking: Under previous versions, when Apache |
| first started up, it used to do a stat of each DocumentRoot to |
| see if it existed and was a directory. If not, then an error |
| message was printed. THIS HAS BEEN DISABLED. If DocumentRoot |
| does not exist, you will get error messages in error_log. If |
| the '-t' command line option is used (to check the configuration) |
| the check of DocumentRoot IS performed. An additional command |
| line option, '-T', has been added if you want to avoid the |
| DocumentRoot check even when checking the configuration. |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Win32: The query switch "apache -S" didn't exit after showing the |
| vhost settings. That was inconsistent with the other query functions. |
| [Bill Stoddard - Fixed by Martin on Unix in 1.3.4] |
| |
| *) Win32: Changed behaviour of apache -k restart. |
| Previously, the server would drain all connections in the stack's |
| listen queue before honoring the restart. On a busy server, this |
| could take hours. Now, a restart is honored almost immediately. |
| All connections in Apache's queues are handled but connections in |
| the stack's listen queue are discarded. Restart triggered by |
| MaxRequestPerChild is unchanged. |
| [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Win32: Eliminated unnecessary call to wait_for_multiple_objects in |
| the accept loop. Good for a 5% performance boost. Cleaned up |
| parent/child process management code. |
| [Bill Stoddard <stoddard raleigh.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) Added ceiling on file size for memory mapped files. |
| [John Giannandrea <jg meer.net>] PR#4122 |
| |
| *) Fix ndbm.h include problems with brain-dead glibc >= 2.1 which |
| has ndbm.h in a non-standard db1/ subdir. PR#4431, PR#4528 |
| [Henri Gomez <gomez slib.fr>, Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Determine AP_BYTE_ORDER for ap_config_auto.h and already |
| use this at least for Expat. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Allow .module files to specify libraries with Lib:. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Allow SetEnvIf[NoCase] to test environment variables as well |
| as header fields and request attributes. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_autoindex's handling of ScanHTMLTitles when file |
| content-types are "text/html;parameters". PR#4524 [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Remove "mxb" support from mod_negotiation -- it was a draft feature |
| never accepted into any standard, and it opens up certain DoS |
| attacks. [Koen Holtman <Koen.Holtman cern.ch>] |
| |
| *) TestCompile updated. We can now run programs and output the |
| results during the Configure process. [ Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) The source is now quad (long long) aware as needed. Specifically, |
| the Configure process determines the correct size of off_t and |
| *void. When the OS/platform/compiler supports quads, ap_snprintf() |
| provides for the 'q' format qualifier (if quads are not available, |
| 'q' is silently "demoted" to long). [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) When the username or password fed to htpasswd is too long, include the |
| size limit in the error message. Also report illegal characters |
| (currently only ':') in the username. Add the size restrictions |
| to the man page. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fixed the configure --without-support option so it doesn't result in |
| an infinite loop. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Piped error logs could cause a segfault if an error occured |
| during configuration after a restart. |
| [Aidan Cully <aidan panix.com>] PR#4456 |
| |
| *) If a "Location" field was stored in r->err_headers_out rather |
| than r->headers_out, redirect processing wouldn't find it and |
| the server would core dump on ap_escape_html(NULL). Check both |
| tables and raise HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR with a log message |
| if Location isn't set. [Doug MacEachern, Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add RULE_EXPAT, the src/lib/ directory structure, and a modified copy |
| of the Expat 1.0.2 distribution. [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Replace regexec() calls with calls to a new API stub function |
| ap_regexec(). This solves problems with DSO modules which use the regex |
| library. [Jens-Uwe Mager <jum helios.de>, Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add 'Request_Protocol' special keyword to mod_setenvif so that |
| environment variables can be set according to the protocol version |
| (e.g., HTTP/0.9 or HTTP/1.1) of the request. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add DSO support for OpenStep (Mach 4.2) platform. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall, Rex Dieter <rdieter math.unl.edu>] PR#3997 |
| |
| *) Fix sed regex for generating ap_config_auto.h in src/Configure. |
| [Jan Gallo <gallo pvt.sk>] PR#3690, PR#4373 |
| |
| *) Switch to /bin/sh5 in APACI on Ultrix and friends to avoid problems with |
| their brain-dead /bin/sh. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#4372 |
| |
| *) Better DSO flags recognition on NetBSD platforms using ELF. |
| [Todd Vierling <tv pobox.com>] PR#4310 |
| |
| *) Always log months in english format for %t in mod_log_config. |
| [Petr Lampa <lampa fee.vutbr.cz>] PR#4366, 679 |
| |
| *) Support for server-parsed and multiview-determined ReadmeName and |
| HeaderName files in mod_autoindex. Removed the restriction on |
| "/"s in ReadmeName and HeaderName directives since the *sub_req* |
| routines will deal with the access issues. (It's now possible to |
| have {site|group|project|customer|...} wide readmes and headers.) |
| [Raymond S Brand <rsbx rsbx.net>, Ken Coar] PR#1574, 3026, 3529, |
| 3569, 4256 |
| |
| *) When stat() fails, don't assume anything about the contents of |
| the struct stat. [Ed Korthof <ed bitmechanic.com>] |
| |
| *) It's OK for a semop to return EINTR, just loop around and try |

| handful of problems seen with mod_perl <Perl> configuration sections |
| [Salvador Ortiz Garcia <sog msg.com.mx>] |
| |
| *) Mac OS and Mac OS X Server now use the appropriate custom layout |
| by default when building with APACI; allow for platform-specific |
| variable defaults in configure. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) Do setgid() before initgroups() in http_main; some platforms |
| zap the grouplist when setgid() is called. This was fixed in |
| suexec earlier, but the main httpd code missed the change. |

| *) Fix minor but annoying bug with the test for Configuration.tmpl |
| being newer than Configuration so that it is less likely to fail |
| when using APACI and shadow sources. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) PORT: Add initial support for Mac OS (versions 10.0 and |
| greater). Use Mac OS X Server layout for now. Clean up dyld code |
| in unix/os.c, and don't install the dyld error handlers, which |
| are no longer needed in Mac OS. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |

| |
| *) Modify mod_autoindex's handling of AddDescription so that the |
| behaviour matches the documentation. [Ken Coar] PR#1898, 3072. |
| |
| *) Add functionality to the install-bindist.sh script created by |
| binbuild.sh to use tar when copying distribution files to the |
| serverroot. This allows upgrading an existing installation |
| without nesting the new distribution in the old. |
| |
| install-bindist.sh now detects the local perl5 path to install |
| apxs and dbmmanage with proper path to perl interpreter. |
| |
| Add an install-binsupport target which copies the source files |
| for apxs and dbmmanage to bindist to allow these scripts to |
| be properly installed relative to the destination serverroot. |

| [Peter 'Luna' Altberg <peter altberg.nu>, Ronald Tschalär] |
| |
| *) Make {Set,Unset,Pass}Env per-directory instead of per-server. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Correct an apparent typo: on the Windows and MPE platforms, the |
| htpasswd utility was limiting passwords to only 8 characters. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) EBCDIC platforms: David submitted patches for two bugs in the |
| MD5 digest port for EBCDIC machines: |
| a) the htdigest utility overwrote the old contents of the digest file |
| b) the Content-MD5 header value (ContentDigest directive) was wrong |
| when the returned file was not converted from EBCDIC, but was a |
| binary (e.g., image file) in the first place. |
| [David McCreedy <mccreedy us.ibm.com>] |
| |
| *) support/htpasswd now permits the password to be specified on the |
| command line with the '-b' switch. This is useful when passwords |
| need to be maintained by scripts -- particularly in the Win32 |
| environment. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Win32: Win32 multiple services patch. Added capability to install and |
| run multiple copies of apache as individual services. |
| |
| Example 1: |
| apache -n apache1 -i -f c:/httpd.conf |
| Installs apache as service 'apache1' and associates c:/httpd.conf |
| with that service. |
| net start apache1 |
| Starts apache1 service. |
| net stop apache1 |
| Stops apache1 service |
| |
| Example 2: |
| apache -n apache2 -i |
| Installs apache as service 'apache2'. httpd.conf is located under |
| the default server root (/apache/conf/httpd.conf). |
| net start apache2 |
| Starts apache2 service. |
| |
| Example 3: |
| apache -n apache3 -i -d c:/program files/apache |
| Install apache as service 'apache3' and sets server root to |
| c:/program files/apache. |
| |
| Example 4: |
| apache -n apache2 -k restart |
| Restart apache2 service |
| |
| [Keith Wannamaker, Ken Parzygnat, Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Correct the signed/unsigned character handling for the MD5 routines; |
| mismatches were causing compilation problems with gcc -pedantic and |
| in the TPF cross-compilation. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) OS/2: Rework CGI handling to use spawn*() instead of fork/exec, achieving |
| a roughly 5 fold speed up. [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) proxy ftp: instead of using the hardwired string "text/plain" as |
| a fallback type for files served by the ftp proxy, use the |
| ap_default_type() function to determine the configured type. |
| This allows for special configurations like |
| <Directory proxy:ftp://some.host> |
| DefaultType gargle/blurb |
| </Directory> |
| Additionally, add the Content-Encoding: header to FTP proxy replies |
| when the encoding is defined (by the AddEncoding directive). |
| Because it was missing, it was almost impossible to browse compressed |
| files using the FTP proxy (works now perfectly in Communicator). |
| The ftp proxy now also returns the Date: and Server: header lines (if not |
| much else... This code is "somewhat" broken) like normal requests do. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Be more smart in APACI's configure script when determining the UID/GID |
| for User/Group directives and use the determined UID/GID to initialize |
| the permissions on the proxycachedir. |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik, Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Changed the forking-prior-to-cleanup in the proxy module to first |
| check wether it actually needs to collect garbage. This reduces |
| the number of fork()s from one/request to just the odd one an hour. |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik] |
| |
| *) Added proxy, auth and header support to src/support/ab.c. Added a |
| README file to src/support/ |
| [Dirk-Willem van Gulik] |
| |
| *) Don't hard-code the path to AWK in --shadow bootstrapping Makefile. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#4050 |
| |
| *) Add support for DSO module compilation on BSD/OS 3.x. |
| [Randy Terbush, Covalent Technologies] |
| |
| *) Fix sed-substitutions in `make install': path elements like `httpd/conf' |
| (for instance from an APACI configure --sysconfdir=/etc/httpd/conf |
| option) were substituted with $(TARGET).conf, etc. Same for other strings |
| with dots where the dot wasn't matched as plain text. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) PORT: Add support for FreeBSD 4.x [Ralf S. Engelschall] |

| Changes with Apache 1.3.6 |
| |

| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3.5 [not released] |
| |
| *) M_INVALID needed a value within the scope of METHODS so that unknown |
| methods can be access controlled. [Roy Fielding] PR#3821 |
| |
| *) Added PassAllEnv; makes server's entire environment available |
| to CGIs and SSIs executed within directive's scope. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) ap_uuencode() always added two trailing '='s and encoding of |
| 8 bit characters on a machine with signed char may produced |
| incorrect results. Additionally ap_uuencode() should now |
| work correctly on EBCDIC platforms. |
| [Ronald Tschalär <ronald innovation.ch>] PR#3411 |
| |
| *) WIN32: Binary installer now runs the configuration DLL before |
| the reboot prompt (which is only given if MSVCRT.DLL system |
| DLL is new or updated). This should avoid the configuration |
| directory being empty after installation. [Paul Sutton] |
| PR#3767, 3800, 3827, 3850, 3900, 3953, 3988 |
| |
| *) WIN32: Binary installer now creates Start menu options to start |
| and stop Apache as a console application and to uninstall |
| the Apache service on NT. [Paul Sutton] PR#3741 |
| |
| *) WIN32: Apache.exe now contains an icon. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) PORT: Switch back to using fcntl() locking on Linux -- instabilities |
| have been reported with flock() locking (probably related to kernel |
| version). [Dean Gaudet] PR#2723, 3531 |
| |
| *) Using APACI, the main config file (usually httpd.conf) was |
| not being adjusted as $(TARGET).conf. [Wilfredo Sanchez |

| |
| *) ap_isxdigit was somehow neglected when adding the ap_isfoo() macros |
| for 8-bit safeness. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) PORT: Use -fPIC instead of -fpic on Solaris and SunOS for compiling DSOs |
| because SPARCs have a small machine-specific maximum size for the Global |
| Offset Table which is often exceeded when compiling one of the larger |
| third-party modules with Apache. [Peter Urban <Peter.Urban epfl.ch>] PR#3977 |
| |
| *) Move the directive `ExtendedStatus' in httpd.conf-dist-win _after_ the |
| DSO/DLL section because it's a directive from mod_status and isn't |
| available before the DLL of mod_status is loaded. |
| [Martin POESCHL <mpoeschl gmx.net>] PR#3936 |

| and --disable-XXX options. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3958 |
| |
| *) Link the shared core bootstrap program (``Rule SHARED_CORE=yes'') also |
| against libap.a and use its ap_snprintf() instead of sprintf() to avoid |
| possible buffer overflows. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Remove no longer used non-API function ap_single_module_init(). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add Apple's Mac OS X Server Layout "Rhapsody" to config.layout. |
| [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) Add cgidir, htdocsdir, iconsdir variables to Makefile.tmpl in order |
| to make platform installations easier. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) In configure, do not append the target name to the directory path if |
| the path already contains "apache". [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) SIGPIPE is now ignored by the server core. The request write routines |
| (ap_rputc, ap_rputs, ap_rvputs, ap_rwrite, ap_rprintf, ap_rflush) now |
| correctly check for output errors and mark the connection as aborted. |
| Replaced many direct (unchecked) calls to ap_b* routines with the |
| analogous ap_r* calls. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Enhanced mod_rewrite's mapfile handling: The in-core cache for text and |
| DBM format mapfiles now uses a 4-way hash table with LRU functionality. |
| Furthermore map lookups for non-existent keys are now cached as well. |
| Additionally "txt" maps are now parsed with simple string functions |
| instead of using ap_pregcomp(). As a side effect a bug that prevented |
| the usage of keys containing the "," character was fixed. |
| The changes drastically improve the performance when large rewrite maps |
| are in use. |
| [Michael van Elst <mlelstv serpens.swb.de>, Lars Eilebrecht] PR#3160 |
| |
| *) Added ap_sub_req_method_uri() for doing a subrequest with a method |
| other than GET, and const'd the definition of method in request_rec. |
| [Greg Stein] |
| |
| *) Use proper pid_t type for saving PIDs in alloc.c. [John Bley] |
| |
| *) Replaced use of WIN32 define with HAVE_DRIVE_LETTERS to indicate |
| when the OS allows a DOS drive letter within pathnames. [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Add %V to mod_log_config, this logs the hostname according to the |
| UseCanonicalName setting (this is the pre-1.3.4 behaviour of |
| %v). Useful for mass vhosting. [Tony Finch <dot dotat.at>] |
| |
| *) Add support for \n and \t to mod_log_config, can be used to produce |
| more reliable logs with multiline entries. [Tony Finch <dot dotat.at>] |
| |
| *) Fixed a few compiler nits. [John Bley <jbb6 acpub.duke.edu>] |
| |
| *) Added informative error messages for failed munmap() and fseek() calls |
| in http_core.c. [John Bley, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Added some informative error messages for some failed malloc() |
| calls. [John Bley <jbb6 acpub.duke.edu>, Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) OS/2 ap_os_canonical_filename()'s behaviour is improved: ap_assert() |
| is removed. This allows <Directory proxy:*> directives to work and |
| prevents invalid requests from killing the process. |
| [Brian Havard <brianh kheldar.apana.org.au>] |
| |
| *) Reorganised FAQ document. |
| [Joshua Slive <slive finance.commerce.ubc.ca>] PR#2497 |
| |
| *) src/support/: The ApacheBench benchmark program was overhauled by |
| David N. Welton: you can now have it generate an HTML TABLE, presumably |
| for integration into other HTML sources. David updated the ab man page |
| as well and added some missing descriptions. Thanks! |
| [David N. Welton <davidw prosa.it>] |
| |
| *) Win32: The filename validity checker now allows filenames containing |
| characters in the range 0x80 to 0xff (for example accented characters). |
| [Paul Sutton] PR#3890 |
| |
| *) Added conditional logging based upon environment variables to |
| mod_log_config. mod_log_referer and mod_log_agent |
| are now deprecated. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Allow apache acting as a proxy server to relay the real |
| reason of a failure to a client rather than the "internal |
| server error" it does currently. The general exposure mechanism |
| can be triggered by any module by setting the "verbose-error-to" |
| note to "*"; this allows more than just proxy errors to be exposed. |
| [Cliff Skolnick, Roy Fielding, Martin Kraemer] Related to PR#3455, 4086 |
| |
| *) Moved man pages for ab and apachectrl to section 8. |
| [Wilfredo Sanchez, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Added -S option to install.sh so that options can be passed to |
| strip on some platforms. [Ralf S. Engelschall, Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) Tweak modules Makefile generated by Configure so that it handles |
| the test case of no modules being selected. [<chaz reliant.com>] |
| |
| *) Added a <LimitExcept method ...> sectioning directive that allows |
| the user to assign authentication control to any HTTP method that |
| is *not* given in the argument list; i.e., the logical negation |
| of the <Limit> directive. This is particularly useful for controlling |
| access on methods unknown to the Apache core, but perhaps known by |
| some module or CGI script. [Roy Fielding, Tony Finch] |
| |
| *) Prevent apachectl from complaining if the PIDFILE exists but |
| does not contain a process id, as might occur if the server is |
| being rapidly restarted. [Wilfredo Sanchez] |
| |
| *) Win32: Add global symbols missing from ApacheCore.def. [Carl Olsen] |
| |
| *) Entity tag comparisons for If-Match and If-None-Match were not being |
| performed correctly -- weak tags might cause false positives. Also, |
| strong comparison wasn't properly enforced in all cases. |
| [Roy Fielding, Ken Coar, Dean Gaudet] PR#2065, 3657 |

| *) OS/2: Supply OS/2 error code instead of errno on semaphore errors. |
| [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Work around a bug in Lynx regarding its sending "Negotiate: trans" |
| even though it doesn't understand TCN. [Koen Holtman, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Added ap_size_list_item(), ap_get_list_item(), and ap_find_list_item() |
| to util.c for parsing an HTTP header field value to extract the next |
| list item, taking into account the possible presence of nested comments, |
| quoted-pairs, and quoted-strings. ap_get_list_item() also removes |
| insignificant whitespace and lowercases non-quoted tokens. |
| [Roy Fielding] PR#2065 |
| |
| *) proxy: The various calls to ap_proxyerror() can return HTTP/1.1 status |
| code different from 500. This allows the proxy to, e.g., return |
| "403 Forbidden" for ProxyBlock'ed URL's. [Martin Kraemer] Related to PR#3455 |
| |
| *) Fix ordering of language variants for the case where the traditional |
| negotiation algorithm is being used with multiple language variants |
| and no Accept-Language. [James Treacy <treacy debian.org>] PR#3299, 3688 |
| |
| *) Do not round the TCN quality calculation to 5 decimal places, |
| unlike RFC 2296, because the calculation might need 12 decimal places |
| to get the right result. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Remove unused code to disable transparent negotiation when |
| negotiating on encoding only, as we now handle encoding too |
| (though this is nonstandard for TCN), remove charset=ISO-8859-1 |
| fiddle from the fiddle-averse RVSA comparison, and fix bugs in |
| some debugging statements within mod_negotiation. [Koen Holtman] |
| |
| *) Fixed a rare memory corruption possibility in mod_dir if the index |
| file is negotiable and no acceptable variant can be found. |
| [Dean Gaudet, Roy Fielding, Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Win32: Add new config directive, ScriptInterpreterSource, to enable |
| searching the Win32 registry for script interpreters. |
| [Bill Stoddard] |
| |
| *) Win32: The compiled-in default filename for the error log is now |
| error.log, which matches the default in the distributed httpd.conf. |
| [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Win32: Any error messages from -i or -u command line options are now |
| displayed on the console output rather than sent to the error log. |
| Also the "Running Apache..." message is not output unless Apache is |
| going to serve requests. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Rework the MD5 authentication scheme to use FreeBSD's algorithm, |
| and use a private significator ('$apr1$') to mark passwords as |
| being smashed with our own algorithm. Also abstract the password |
| checking into a new ap_validate_password() routine. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Win32: The filename validity checker now allows "COM" but refuses |
| access to "COM1" through "COM4". This allows filenames such |
| as "com.name" to be served. [Paul Sutton] PR#3769. |
| |
| *) BS2000: Adapt to the new ufork() system call interface which will |
| make subtasking easier on the OSD/POSIX mainframe environment. |

| |
| *) Add a compatibility define for escape_uri() -> ap_escape_uri() to |
| ap_compat.h. [David White <david persimmon.com>] PR#3725 |

| *) Make NDBM file suffix determination for mod_rewrite more accurate, i.e. |
| use `.db' instead of `.pag' not only for FreeBSD, but also when |
| the NDBM library looks like Berkeley-DB based. |

| and check to see if the tar we wind up with supports '-h'. |
| [Jim Jagielski] PR#3671 |
| |
| *) A consistent and conservative style for all shell scripts has been |
| implemented. Basically, all shell string tests use the traditional |
| hack of 'if [ "x$var" != "x" ]' or 'if [ "x$var" = "xstring" ]' |
| to protect against bare null variable strings (ie: wrapping both |
| sides with double quotes and prepending 'x'). 'x' was chosen |
| because it's more universal and hopefully easier for old shell |
| prgrammers, as well as being easier to search for in 'vi' (/x\$) :) |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) The status module now prints out both the main server generation as |
| well as the generation of each process. Also, the vhost info is |
| printed with '?notable'. [Jim Jagielski] |

| *) Move src/main/md5c.c to src/ap/ap_md5c.c; it's httpd-neutral |
| and this makes its functions available to things in src/support. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3.4 |
| |
| *) Renamed macros status_drops_connection to ap_status_drops_connection |
| and vestigial scan_script_header to ap_scan_script_header_err, |
| mostly for aesthetic reasons. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) The query switch "httpd -S" didn't exit after showing the |
| vhost settings. That was inconsistent with the other query functions. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Moved the MODULE_MAGIC_COOKIE from before the versions and |
| filename to the end of the STANDARD_MODULE_STUFF. Its |
| presence at the beginning prevented reporting of the filename |
| for modules compiled before 1 January 1999. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: ap_os_is_filename_valid() has been added to Win32 |
| to detect and prevent access to special DOS device file names. |
| [Paul Sutton, Ken Parzygnat] |
| |
| *) WIN32: Created new makefiles Makefile_win32.txt (normal build) |
| and Makefile_win32_debug.txt (debug build) that work on Win95. |
| Run each of the following from the src directory: |
| nmake /f Makefile_win32.txt # compiles normal build |
| nmake /f Makefile_win32.txt install # compiles and installs |
| nmake /f Makefile_win32.txt clean # removes compiled junk |
| nmake /f Makefile_win32_debug.txt # compiles debug build |
| nmake /f Makefile_win32_debug.txt install |
| nmake /f Makefile_win32_debug.txt clean |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Added binbuild.sh and findprg.sh helpers to make it easier for us |
| to build binary distributions. [Lars Eilebrecht] |
| |
| *) IndexOptions SuppressColumnSorting only turned off making |
| the column headers anchors; you could still change the display |
| order by manually adding a '?N=A' or similar query string to the |
| URL. Now SuppressColumnSorting locks in the sort order so |
| it can't be overridden this way. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Added IndexOrderDefault directive to supply a default sort order |
| for FancyIndexed directory listings. [Ken Coar] PR#1699 |
| |
| *) Change the ap_assert macro to a variant that works on all platforms. |
| [Richard Prinz <richard.prinz cso.net>] PR#2575 |
| |
| *) Make sure under ELF-based NetBSD (now) and OpenBSD (future) we don't |
| search for an underscore on dlsym() (as it's already the case |
| for FreeBSD 3.0). [Todd Vierling <tv pobox.com>] PR#2462 |
| |
| *) Small fix for mod_env.html: The module was documented as to be _not_ |
| compiled into Apache per default, although it _IS_ compiled into |
| Apache per default. [Sim Harbert <sim mindspring.com>] PR#3572 |
| |
| *) Instead of fixing a bug in the generation procedure for config.status (a |
| backslash was missing) we remove the bug together with it's complete |
| context because the special cases of the past can now no longer occur |
| because of the recent magic for the --with-layout default. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3590 |
| |
| *) Make top-level Makefile aware of a parallel build procedures (make -j) by |
| making sure the src/support/ tools are _forced_ to be build last (they |
| depend on other libraries). |
| [Markus Theissinger <markus.theissinger gmx.de>] |
| |
| *) Fix installation procedure: Now that os-inline.c is actually used (a |
| recently fixed bug prevented this) we need to also install os-include.c |
| in addition to os.h into the PREFIX/include/ location or building of |
| module DSOs with APXS fails. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3527 |
| |
| *) Added MODULE_MAGIC_COOKIE as the first field in a module structure to |
| allow us to distinguish between a garbled DSO (or even a file which isn't |
| an Apache module DSO at all) and a DSO which doesn't match the current |
| Apache API. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3152 |
| |
| *) Two minor enhancements to mod_rewrite: First RewriteRule now also |
| supports the ``nocase|NC'' flag (as RewriteCond already does for ages) to |
| match case insensitive (this especially avoids nasty patterns like |
| `[tT][eE][sS][tT]'). Second two additional internal map functions |
| `escape' and `unescape' were added which can be used to escape/unescape |
| to/from hex-encodings in URLs parts (this is especially useful in |
| combination with map lookups). |
| [Magnus Bodin, Ian Kallen, Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Renamed the macro escape_uri() to ap_escape_uri() which was |
| forgotten (because it was a macro) in the symbol renaming process. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fix some inconsistencies related to the scopes of directives. The only |
| user visible change is that the directives `UseCanonicalName' and |
| `ContentDigest' now use the (more correct) `Options' scope instead of |
| (less correct) `AuthConfig' scope. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Using DSO, the Server token was being mangled. Specifically, the |
| module's token was being added first before the Apache token. This |
| has been fixed. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Major overhaul of mod_negotiation.c, part 2. |
| - properly handle "identity" within Accept-Encoding. |
| - allow encoded variants in RVSA negotiation and let them appear in |
| the Alternates field using the non-standard "encoding" tag-list. |
| - fixed both negotiation algorithms so that an explicitly accepted |
| encoding is preferred over no encoding if "identity" is not |
| included within Accept-Encoding. |
| - added ap_array_pstrcat() to alloc.c for efficient concatenation |
| of large substring sequences. |
| - replaced O(n^2) memory hogs in mod_negotiation with ap_array_pstrcat. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Major overhaul of mod_negotiation.c, part 1. |
| - cleanups to mod_negotiation comments and code structure |
| - made compliant with HTTP/1.1 proposed standard (rfc2068) and added |
| support for everything in the upcoming HTTP/1.1 |
| revision (draft-ietf-http-v11-spec-rev-06.txt). |
| - language tag matching also handles tags with more than 2 |
| levels like x-y-z |
| - empty Accept, Accept-Language, Accept-Charset headers are |
| processed correctly; previously an empty header would make all |
| values acceptable instead of unacceptable. |
| - allowed for q values in Accept-Encoding |
| - added support for transparent content negotiation (rfc2295 and |
| rfc2296) (though we do not implement all features in these drafts, |
| e.g. no feature negotiation). Removed old experimental version. |
| - implemented 'structured entity tags' for better cache correctness |
| (structured entity tags ensure that caches which can deal with Vary |
| will (eventually) be updated if the set of variants on the server |
| is changed) |
| - this involved adding a vlist_validator element to request_rec |
| - this involved adding the ap_make_etag() function to the global API |
| - modified guessing of charsets used by Apache negotiation algorithm |
| to guess 'no charset' if the variant is not a text/* type |
| - added code to sort multiviews variants into a canonical order so that |
| negotiation results are consistent across backup/restores and mirrors |
| - removed possibility of a type map file resolving to another type map |
| file as its best variant |
| [Koen Holtman, Roy Fielding, Lars Eilebrecht] PR#3451, 3299, 1987 |
| |
| *) RFC2396 allows the syntax http://host:/path (with no port number) |
| but the proxy disallowed it (ap_proxy_canon_netloc()). |
| [David Kristol <dmk bell-labs.com>] PR#3530 |
| |
| *) When modules update/modify the file name in the configfile_t structure, |
| syntax errors will report the updated name, not the original one. |
| [Fabien Coelho <coelho cri.ensmp.fr>] PR#3573 |
| |
| *) Correct some filename case assumptions from WIN32 to |
| CASE_BLIND_FILESYSTEM. [Brian Havard <brianh kheldar.apana.org.au>] |
| |
| *) For %v log ServerName regardless of the UseCanonicalName |
| setting (similarly for %p). [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Configure was initializing the variables $OSDIR, $INCDIR and $SHELL |
| rather late (too late for some invocations of TestCompile). |
| This improves the make environment available to TestCompile and |
| the *.module scripts. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) The hashbang emulation code in ap_execve.c would interpret |
| #!/hashbang/scripts correctly, but failed to fall back to a |
| standard shell for scripts which did NOT start with #! |
| Now SHELL_PATH is started in these cases. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) PORT: Added the Cyberguard V2 port [Richard Stagg <stagg lentil.org>] |
| PR#3336 |
| |
| *) Update APXS manual page: some -q option arguments were missing |
| and another was incorrect. [Mark Anderson <mda discerning.com>] PR#3553 |
| |
| *) Cleanup the command line options: `-?' was documented to show |
| the usage list but does it with an error because `?' is not a valid |
| command. OTOH a lot of users expect `-h' to print such a usage list and |
| instead are annoyed for ages by our huge unreadable list of directives. |
| So we now changed the command line options this way: |
| 1. `-L' => `-R' |
| Intent: we need `-L' to be free, and `-R' for the DSO run-time path is |
| very similar to the popular linker option. |
| 2. `-h' => `-L' |
| Intent: while -l gives the small list of modules, -L now gives the |
| large list of directives implemented by these modules. This is also |
| consistent with -v (short version info) and -V (large version info). |
| 3. `-?' => `-h' |
| Intent: it's now the expected option ;-) |
| The manual page was adjusted accordingly. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2714 |
| |
| *) Fixed problem of fclose() on an unopened file in suexec if LOG_EXEC |
| wasn't defined. [Rick Franchuk <rickf transpect.net>] |
| |
| *) Removed recently introduced bugs and disfigurements in APACI: |
| o fixed argument line processing: using $args was broken: It was not |
| initialized and using args="$args $apc_option" and even args="$args |
| \"$apc_option\"" fails in the second processing round for any arguments |
| containing whitespaces. The only correct way is to use the construct |
| "$@" (but not possible here) or iterate _both_ times over the implicit |
| argument line (no argument to for-loop) which is what we now use. |
| o make --with-layout=Apache the default without creating |
| redundancy (copying the --with-layout block in the argument parsing |
| loop). We achieve this by using the "$@" construct together with the |
| `set' command to prepend --with-layout=Apache to the command line in |
| case --with-layout is not used. |
| o fixed auto-suffix handling now that config.layout exists. |
| Paths which are auto-suffixed are marked with a trailing plus sign in |
| config.layout and every path now can be marked this way (not only the |
| four paths for which we do it currently). Additionally the suffix is |
| no longer a static one. Instead it's now `/<target>' where <target> is |
| the argument of the --target option or per default `httpd'. |
| o allow also tabs (and only spaces) where we match whitespaces |
| o various fixes and cleanups related to used shell coding style |
| o made Jim happy by replacing `Written by' with `Initially written by' ;-) |
| o trimmed output of --help to fit into 80 columns |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Added two new core API functions, ap_single_module_configure() and |
| ap_single_module_init(), which are now used by mod_so to configure a module |
| after loading. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) PORT: Add defines for USE_FLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT and |
| SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT to NetBSD/OpenBSD section |
| of ap_config.h to allow serialized accept for multiport listens. |
| [Roy Fielding, Curt Sampson] PR#3120 |
| |
| *) PORT: Fixed a misplaced #endif for NetBSD/OpenBSD section |
| of ap_config.h that would skip several defines if DEFAULT_GROUP |
| was overridden. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) PORT: The I86 version of DGUX has support for strncasecmp and |
| strcasecmp, so allow it in ap_config.h. [Amiel Lee Yee] PR#3247 |
| |
| *) Fix ordering of definitions in ap_config.h so that ap_inline is |
| defined before it might be used. [Victor Khimenko] |
| |
| *) PORT: Add Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) support for BSDI (v4.0). |
| [Tom Serkowski <tks bsdi.com>] PR#3453 |
| |
| *) Make generation of src/Configuration.apaci more robust: It failed to |
| differenciate between modules when one module name was a postfix of |
| another (e.g. cgi vs. fastcgi). We now check for mod_XXX, libXXX and even |
| just XXX (think about totally non-standard names like "apache_ssl", too). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3380 |
| |
| *) In src/Configure remove the SERVER_SUBVERSION support (already deprecated |
| since 1.3b7) and make whitespace handling more robust (it failed horrible |
| when whitespaces were present in the arguments of -D options). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3240 |
| |
| *) Add APACI --shadow=DIR variant (in addition to --shadow). This now first |
| creates an external package shadow tree in DIR before the local build |
| shadow tree is generated under DIR. This way one can have the extracted |
| Apache distribution tree read-only on NFS or CDROM and still build Apache |
| from these sources. An automatically triggered VPATH-like mechanism is |
| provided through the TOP variable, too. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall, Wilfredo Sanchez <wsanchez apple.com>] |
| |
| *) Fix negotiation so that a Vary response header is correctly |
| generated when, for a particular dimension, variants only vary |
| in having or not having a value for that dimension. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Fix negotiation so that we prefer an encoded variant over an |
| unencoded variant if the user-agent explicitly says it can |
| accept that encoding. Previously we always preferred the unencoded |
| variant. |
| [Paul Ausbeck <paula alumni.cse.ucsc.edu>, Paul Sutton] PR#3447 |
| |
| *) Fix APXS tool: query variables LIBS_SHLIB and TARGET were not recognized |
| and the usage page was inconsistent with the functionality and manpage. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Allow special options -Wc,xxx and -Wl,xxx on APXS compile/link command. |
| They can occur multiple times and their arguments (`xxx') are passed AS |
| IS to the compiler/linker command. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fixed possible (but harmless in practice) bug in the DBM lookup |
| procedure of mod_rewrite: very long keys were truncated. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Added a generic --with-layout=[FILE:]ID option. ID here is a layout |
| identifier, currently "Apache" and "GNU" are pre-defined in the file |
| config.layout. Custom layouts are possible by using FILE:ID as the |
| argument where the layout ID is taken from FILE. |
| |
| The config.layout file consists of <Layout ID>..</Layout> sections |
| where inside those sections "path_variable: path_value" pairs can be |
| specified. These lines are converted to path_variable='path_value'. |
| |
| *) Add a DefaultLanguage directive so that files missing a language |
| extension (e.g., .fr, .de) can be labelled as being some other |
| default language. DefaultLanguage can appear in <Directory> and |
| <Files> containers as well as .htaccess files. [Paul Sutton] |
| PR#1180 |
| |
| *) Fix TARGET configuration when configuring and installing using |
| APACI configure. TARGET now defines the basename of the configuration |
| file, startup script, manual page, etc. log_error_core() now reports |
| the server binary name given by argv[0]. TARGET can now also be defined |
| with --target=TARGET parameter passed to APACI configure. |
| [Ralf Engelschall, Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) mod_include.c:handle_perl() now properly tests for OPT_INCNOEXEC |
| rather than OPT_INCLUDES [Rainer Schoepf <schoepf uni-mainz.de>] |
| |
| *) ap_md5_binary() was using sprintf() rather than a table lookup |
| to convert binary bytes to hex digits. |
| [Ronald Tschalär <ronald innovation.ch>] PR#3409 |
| |
| *) Fix SEGV in TCN negotiation if no variants are acceptable. |
| [Martin Plechsmid <plechsmi karlin.mff.cuni.cz>] PR#1987 |
| |
| *) API: ap_exists_config_define() function is now "public" [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Fix documentation of `Action' directive: It can activate a CGI script |
| when either a handler or a MIME content type is triggered by the request. |
| [Andrew Pimlott <pimlott math.harvard.edu>] PR#3340 |
| |
| *) Document the `add' command of `dbmmanage' in `dbmmanage.1' manpage. |
| [David MacKenzie <djm uu.net>] PR#3394 |
| |
| *) Ignore a "ErrorDocument 401" directive with a full URL and write a |
| notice to the error log. It is not possible to send a 401 response |
| and a redirect at the same time. [Lars Eilebrecht] |
| |
| *) Fallback to native compilers for IRIX-32 platform. It seems that |
| a gcc 2.8.1 compiled apache is logging client addresses with all |
| bits set (255.255.255.255). This is the second such problem caused |
| by gcc 2.8.1 compiler. The first being broken semaphore locking. |
| [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Updated mime.types to reflect current Internet media types |
| and include a URL to the registry. |
| [Manoj Kasichainula, Roy Fielding] PR#2380, 2286, 2246 |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Do a more complete check in mod_include to avoid |
| an infinite loop of recursive SSI includes. [Marc Slemko] PR#3323 |
| |
| *) Add APACI --suexec-docroot and --suexec-logfile options which can be |
| used to set the document root directory (DOC_ROOT) and the suexec |
| logfile (LOG_EXEC), respectively. Additionally the --layout option |
| was changed to show more information about the suEXEC setup. |
| [Lars Eilebrecht] PR#3316, 3357, 3361 |
| |
| *) Added the last two WebDAV status codes of 424 (Failed Dependency) |
| and 507 (Insufficient Storage) for use by third-party modules. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Enabled all of the WebDAV method names for use by third-party |
| modules, Limit, and Script directives. That includes PATCH, |
| PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MKCOL, COPY, MOVE, LOCK, and UNLOCK. |
| Improved mod_actions.c so that it can use any of the methods |
| defined in httpd.h. Added ap_method_number_of(method) for |
| getting the internal method number. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) PORT: Add a port to the TPF OS. [Joe Moenich <moenich us.ibm.com> and |
| others at IBM] |

| *) WIN32: Log more explicit error messages if spawning an interpreted |

| the interpreter and the Win32 error code returned. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Disable sending of error-notes on a 500 (Internal Server Error) response |
| since it often includes file path info. Enable sending of error-notes |
| on a 501 (Method Not Implemented). [Roy Fielding] PR#3173 |
| |
| *) http_config.c would respond with 501 (Method Not Implemented) if a |
| content type handler was specified but could not be found, which |
| should have been a 500 response. Likewise, mod_proxy.c would responsd |
| with a 501 if the URI scheme is unrecognized instead of the correct |
| response of 403 (Forbidden). [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Eliminate DoS attack when a bad URI path contains what |
| looks like a printf format escape. [Marc Slemko, Studenten Net Twente] |
| |
| *) Fix in mod_autoindex: for files where the last modified time stamp was |
| unavailable, an empty string was printed which was 2 bytes short. |
| The size and description columns were therefore not aligned correctly. |
| [Martin Kraemer] (no PR#) |
| |
| *) Update BS2000 OS code to work with recent versions. Starting with |
| release A17, the child fork() must be replaced by a _rfork(). |
| (BS2000 only) [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Add the actual server_rec structure of the specific Vhost to the |
| scoreboard file and avoid a string copy (as well as allow some |
| further future enhancements). [Harrie Hazewinkel |
| <harrie.hazewinkel jrc.it>] |
| |
| *) Add APACI --permute-module=foo:bar option which can be used to |
| on-the-fly/batch permute the order of two modules (mod_foo and mod_bar) |
| in the Configuration[.apaci] file. Two special and important variants are |
| supported for the option argument: first BEGIN:foo which permutes module |
| mod_foo with the begin of the module list, i.e. it `moves' the module to |
| the begin of the list (gives it lowest priority). And second foo:END |
| which permutes mod_foo with the end of the module list, i.e. it `moves' |
| the module to the end of the list (gives it highest priority). |

| non-cachable. [Roy Fielding, traced by Doug Bloebaum]. PR#2950, 3056 |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3.3 |
| |
| *) Added a complete implementation of the Expect header field as |
| specified in rev-05 of HTTP/1.1. Disabled the 100 Continue |
| response when we already know the final status, which is mighty |
| useful for PUT responses that result in 302 or 401. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Remove extra trailing whitespace from the getline results as part |
| of the protocol processing, which is extra nice because it works |
| between continuation lines, is almost no cost in the normal case |
| of no extra whitespace, and saves memory. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Added new HTTP status codes and default response bodies from the |
| revised HTTP/1.1 (307, 416, 417), WebDAV (102, 207, 422, 423), and |
| HTTP Extension Framework (510) specifications. Did not add the |

| You now must define a BS2000Account name for the server User. |
| This has fewer security implications than the old approach. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Fix SHARED_CORE feature for HPUX platform: We now use extension `.sl' |
| instead of `.so' and `SHLIB_PATH' instead of `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' on this |
| platform to make the braindead HPUX linker happy. Notice, for the module |
| DSOs we don't have to use this, because these are loaded manually (and |
| not via HPUX' dld). [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2905, PR#2968 |

| |
| *) Make PrintPath work generically instead of having one version |
| strictly for OS/2. [Jim Jagielski, Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Fix the recently introduced C header file checking: We now use the C |
| pre-processor pass only (and no longer the complete compiler pass) to |
| determine whether a C header file exists or not. Because only this way |
| we're safe against inter-header dependencies (which caused horrible |
| portability problems). The only drawback is that we now have a CPP |
| configuration variable which has to be determined first (we do a similar |
| approach as GNU Autoconf does here). When all fails the user still has |
| the possibility to override it manually via APACI or src/Configuration. |
| As a fallback for the header check itself we can directly check the |
| existance of the file under /usr/include, too. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2777 |

| platform, because it's only supported under version 4.0 and higher. But |
| because our GuessOS is still unaware of Digital UNIX versions and the |
| -msym is just to optimize the DSO statup time a little bit it's safe and |
| best when we leave it out now. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2969 |
| |
| *) Fix the ap_log_error_old(), ap_log_unixerr() and ap_log_printf() |
| functions: First all three functions no longer fail on strings containing |

| (instead it directly passes through the message to be formatted to the |
| real internal formatting function). [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2941 |
| |
| *) Allow "Include" directives anywhere in the server config |
| files (but not .htaccess files). [Ken Coar] PR#2727 |
| |
| *) The proxy was refusing to serve CONNECT requests except to |
| port 443 (https://) and 563 (snews://). The new AllowCONNECT |
| directive allows the configuration of the ports to which a |
| CONNECT is allowed. [Sameer Parekh, Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) mod_expires will now act on content that is not sent from a file |
| on disk. Previously it would never add an Expires: header to |
| any response that did not come from a file on disk; the only |
| case where it still doesn't (and can't) add one for that type of |
| content is if you are using a modification date based setting. |
| [Marc Slemko, Paul Phillips <paulp go2net.com>] |
| |
| *) Problems encountered during .htaccess parsing or CGI execution |
| that lead to a "500 Server Error" condition now provide explanatory |
| text (in the *ERROR_NOTES envariable) to ErrorDocument 500 scripts. |
| [Ken Coar] PR#1291 |
| |
| *) Add NameWidth keyword to IndexOptions directive so that the |
| width of the filename column is customisable. [Ken Coar, Dean Gaudet] |
| PR#1949, 2324. |
| |
| *) Recognize lowercase _and_ uppercase `uname' results under |
| SCO OpenServer. [David Coelho <drc ppt.com>] |
| |
| *) As duplicate "HTTP/1.0 200 OK" lines within the header seem to be |
| a common problem of (mis-administrated?) IIS servers, make the apache |
| proxy immune to these errors (and ignore the duplicates, but log |
| the fact to error_log). [Martin Kraemer], after the proposal in PR#2914 |
| |
| *) The <IfModule and <IfDefine block starting directives now only |
| allow exactly one argument. Previously, the optional negation |
| character '!' could be separated by whitespace without a syntax |
| error being reported, albeit defeating the IfModule functionality |
| (enclosed directives would ALWAYS be executed). By using the |
| stricter syntax, these hard-to-track errors can be avoided. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Simplify handling of IndexOptions in mod_autoindex -- and BTW |
| cause the standalone FancyIndexing directive to logically OR |
| into any existing IndexOptions settings rather than wiping |
| them out. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Changes in ftp proxy: make URL parsing simpler by using the |
| parsed_uri stuff. |
| + Add display of the "current directory" in cases where it's |
| different from the supplied path (e.g., ftp://user@host/ lives |
| in /home/user, not in /, therefore clicking on "../" in the |
| starting directory might send us to /home/). |
| + When ftp login fails, (esp. when a user name was part of the |
| URL already), we now return [401 Unauthorized ] to allow the |
| browser to pop up an authorization dialog. This makes passwords |
| slightly less visible (they don't appear in the regular log files) |
| and implements a functionality that other www proxy servers |
| already offered. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Triggered by the recent "Via:" header changes, the proxy module would |
| dump core for replies with invalid headers (e.g., duplicate |
| "HTTP/1.0 200 OK" lines). These errors are now logged and the |
| core dump is avoided. Also, broken replies are not cached. |
| [Martin Kraemer] PR#2914 |
| |
| *) new `GprofDir' directive when compiled with -DGPROF, where gprof can |
| plop gmon.out profile data for each child [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Use the construct ``"$@"'' instead of ``$*'' in the generated |
| config.status script to be immune against arguments with whitespaces. |
| [Yves Arrouye <yves apple.com>] PR#2866 |
| |
| *) Replace the inlined information grabbing stuff for the configuration |
| adjustment feature (no --without-confadjust) with calls to a new helper |
| script `buildinfo.sh' which is both more flexible and already proofed to |
| be more robust against platform differences. This mainly fixes the |
| recently occured ``sed: command garbled: ...'' problems. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2776, PR#2848 |
| |
| *) Make ab.c again pass ``gcc -Wall -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align |
| -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' |
| without complains after we recently added the POST feature. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |

| [Kurt Sussman <kls best.com>] PR#2871 |
| |
| *) Bump up MAX_ENV_FLAGS in mod_rewrite.h from the too conservatice limit of |
| 5 to 10 because there are some users out there who always have 5 to 8 |
| variables in one RewriteRule and had to patch mod_rewrite.h for every |
| release. So 15 should be now more than enough, even for them. (I never |
| needed more than 4 in my RewriteRules ;-) |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Make the proxy generate and understand Via: headers |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Change the proxy to use tables instead of array_headers for |

| |
| *) Make sure the config.status file is not overridden when just |
| ``configure --help'' is used. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2844 |
| |
| *) Split MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER into _MAJOR/_MINOR numbers. This should |
| provide a way to trace API changes that add functionality but do |
| not create a compatibility issue for precompiled modules, etc. |
| See include/ap_mmn.h for more details. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Fix suexec installation under `make install root=xxx' situation. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Extend the output of the -V switch to include the paths of all |
| compiled-in configuration files, if they were overridden at |
| compile time, for least astonishment of the user. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) When READing a request in ExtendedStatus mode, the "old" |
| vhost, request and client information is not displayed. |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) STATUS is no longer available. Full status information now |
| run-time configurable using the ExtendedStatus directive. |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: CVE-1999-1199 (cve.mitre.org) |
| Eliminate O(n^2) space DoS attacks (and other O(n^2) |
| cpu time attacks) in header parsing. Add ap_overlap_tables(), |
| a function which can be used to perform bulk update operations |
| on tables in a more efficient manner. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Added compile-time and configurable limits for |
| various aspects of reading a client request to avoid some simple |
| denial of service attacks, including limits on maximum request-line |
| size (LimitRequestLine), number of header fields (LimitRequestFields), |
| and size of any one header field (LimitRequestFieldsize). Also added |
| a configurable directive LimitRequestBody for limiting the size of the |
| request message body. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Make status module aware of DNS and logging states, even if |
| STATUS not defined. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Fix a problem with the new OS/2 mutexes. [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Enhance mod_speling so that CheckSpelling can be used in |
| <Directory> containers and .htaccess files. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) API: new ap_custom_response() function for hooking into the |
| ErrorDocument mechanism at runtime [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) API: new ap_uuencode() function [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) API: scan_script_header_err_core() now "public" and renamed |
| ap_scan_script_header_err_core() [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) The 'status' module will now show the process pid's and their |
| state even without full STATUS accounting. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Restore the client IP address to the error log messages, this |
| was lost during the transition from 1.2 to 1.3. Add a new |
| function ap_log_rerror() which takes a request_rec * and |
| formats it appropriately. [Dean Gaudet] PR#2661 |
| |
| *) Cure ap_cfg_getline() of its nasty habit of compressing internal |
| whitespace in input lines -- including within quoted strings. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| but leading and trailing whitespace should continue to be |
| stripped [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Cleanup of the PrintPath/PrintPathOS2 helper functions. Avoid |
| the ugly use of an env. variable and use command-line args for |
| alternate $PATH. Make more like advanced 'type's as well. |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) The IRIXN32 Rule was being ignored. Configure now correctly adds |
| -n32 only if IRIXN32 says to. [Jim Jagielski, Alain St-Denis |
| <alain.st-denis ec.gc.ca>] PR#2736 |
| |
| *) Clean up a warning in mod_proxy. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Renamed __EMX__ (internal define of the gcc port under OS/2) to OS2 |
| following the same idea as "MSVC vs WIN32". Additionally the src/os/emx/ |
| directory was renamed to src/os/os2/ for consistency. |
| [Brian Havard, Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add new Rule SHARED_CHAIN which can be used to enable linking of DSO |
| files (here modules) against other DSO files (here shared libraries). |
| This is done by determining a subset of LIBS which can be safely used for |
| linking the DSOs, i.e. PIC libs and shared libs. Currently the rule is |
| disabled for all platforms to avoid problems with this (experimental) |
| rule. But we provide it now for those people how ran into problems and |
| want to came out by forcing linking against DSOs. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2587 |

| |
| *) One more portability fix for APACI shadow tree support: Swap order of awk |
| and sed in top-level configure script to avoid sed fails on some |
| platforms (for instance SunOS 4.1.3 and NCR SysV) because of the |
| non-newline-termined output of Awk. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2729 |

| |
| *) Autogenerate some HAVE_XXXXX_H defines in conf_auto.h (determined via |
| TestCompile) instead of defining them manually in conf.h based on less |

| *) mod_setenvif (BrowserMatch* and friends) will now match a missing |
| field with "^$". [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Set the RTLD_GLOBAL dlopen mode parameter to allow dynamically loaded |
| modules to load their own modules dynamically. This improves mod_perl |

| |
| *) suexec's error messages have been clarified a little bit. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Clean up some, but perhaps not all, 8-bit character set problems |
| with config file parsing, and URL parsing. We now define |
| ap_isdigit(), ap_isupper(), ... which cast to an (unsigned char). |
| This should work on most modern unixes. |

| really did exist, but was just declining to serve the request. |
| [John Van Essen <jve gamers.org>] PR#2529 |
| |
| *) Add Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) support for SCO5 (OpenServer 5.0.x). |
| [Ronald Record <rr sco.com>] PR#2533 |
| |
| *) The APACI libexecdir was not extended with an "apache/" subdir |
| if the installation prefix didn't already contain "apache", but |
| it should be because the DSO files are Apache-specific. Now |
| libexecdir is treated the same way sysconfdir, datadir, localstatedir |
| and includedir are already treated. |
| [Charles Levert <charles comm.polymtl.ca>] PR#2551 |
| |
| *) The <Limit> parsing routine was incorrectly treating methods as |
| case-insensitive. [Ken Coar] |
| |

| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) add support for #perl arg interpolation in mod_include |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |

| *) PORT: Add UnixWare 7 support |
| [Vadim Kostoglodoff <vadim olly.ru>] PR#2463 |

| used instead of "$PERL" which contains the correctly determined Perl |
| interpreter (important for instance on systems where "perl" and "perl5" |
| exists, like BSDI or FreeBSD, etc). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2505 |
| |
| *) Move the initial suEXEC-related startup message from plain |
| fprintf()/stderr to a delayed ap_log_error()-based one to avoid problems |
| when Apache is started from inetd (instead of standalone). Under this |
| situation startup messages on stderr lead to problems (the line is sent |

| [Ben Laurie, Alexei Kosut]. |
| |
| *) We now attempt to dump core when we get SIGILL. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) PORT: remove broken test for MAP_FILE in http_main.c. |
| [Wilfredo Sanchez <wsanchez apple.com>] |
| |
| *) PORT: Change support/apachectl to use "kill -0 $pid" to test if the |
| httpd is running. This should be more portable than figuring out |
| which of three dozen different versions of "ps" are installed. |
| [a cast of dozens] |
| |
| *) WIN32: If we can't figure out how to execute a file in a script |
| directory, bail out of the request with an error message. [W G Stoddard] |
| |
| *) WIN32 SECURITY: Eliminate directories consisting of three or more dots; |
| these are treated by Win32 as if they are ".." but are not detected by |
| other machinery within Apache. This is something of a kludge but |
| eliminates a security hole. [Manoj Kasichainula, Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Move ap_escape_quotes() from src/ap to src/main/util.c; it uses |
| pools and thus pollutes libap (until the pool stuff is moved there). |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) IndexIgnore should be case-blind on Win32 (and any other case-aware |
| but case-insensitive platforms). New #define for this added to conf.h |
| (CASE_BLIND_FILESYSTEM). [Ken Coar] PR#2455 |

| *) Enable DSO support for OpenBSD in general, not only for 2.x, because it |
| also works for OpenBSD 1.x. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) PORT: Fix compilation problem on ARM Linux. |
| [Sam Kington <sam illuminated.co.uk>] PR#2443 |
| |
| *) Let APACI's configure script determine some configuration parameters |
| (Group, Port, ServerAdmin, ServerName) via some intelligent tests to |
| remove some of the classical hurdles for new users when setting up |
| Apache. This is done per default because it is useful for the average |
| user. Package authors can use the --without-confadjust option to disable |
| these configuration adjustments. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Added an EXTRA_DEPS configuration parameter which can be used |
| to add an extra Makefile dependency for the httpd target, for instance |
| to external third-party libraries, etc. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add <IfDefine>..</IfDefine> sections to the core module (with same spirit |
| as <IfModule>..</IfModule> sections) which can be used to skip or process |
| contained commands dependend of ``-D PARAMETER'' options on the command |
| line. This can be used to achieve logical conditions like <IfDefine |
| ReverseProxy> instead of physically ones (e.g. <IfModule mod_proxy.c>) |
| and thus especially can be used for conditionally loading DSO-based |
| modules via LoadModule, etc. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) PORT: clean up a warning in mod_status for OS/2. [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Make table elements const. This may prevent obscure errors. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Fix parsing of FTP `SIZE' responses in proxy module: The newline was not |
| truncated which forced following HTTP headers to be data in the HTTP |
| reponse. [Ralf S. Engelschall, Charles Fu <ccwf bacchus.com>] |
| PR#2412, 2367 |
| |
| *) Portability fix for APACI shadow tree support: Swap order of awk and sed |
| in top-level configure script to avoid sed fails on some platforms (for |
| instance SunOS 4.1.3 and NCR SysV) because of the non-newline-termined |
| output of Awk. [Bill Houle <bhoule sandiegoca.ncr.com>] PR#2435 |
| |
| *) Improve performance of directory listings (mod_autoindex) by comparing |
| integer keys (last-modified and size) as integers rather than converting |
| them to strings first. Also use a set of explicit byte tests rather |
| than strcmp() to check for parent directory-ness of an entry. Oh, and |
| make sure the parent directory (if displayed) is *always* listed first |
| regardless of the sort key. Overall performance winnage should be good |
| in CPU time, instruction cache, and memory usage, particularly for large |
| directories. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add a tiny but useful goody to APACI's configure script: The generation |
| of a config.status script (as GNU Autoconf does) which remembers the used |
| configure command and hence can be used to restore the configuration by |
| just re-running this script or for remembering the configuration between |
| releases. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add httpd -t (test) option for running configuration syntax tests only. |
| If something is broken it complains and exits with a return code |
| non-equal to 0. This can be used manually by the user to check the Apache |
| configuration after editing and is also automatically used by apachectl |
| on (graceful) restart command to make sure Apache doesn't die on restarts |
| because of a configuration which is now broken since the last (re)start. |
| This way `apachectl restart' can be used inside cronjobs without having |
| to expect Apache to be falling down. Additionally the httpd -t can be run |
| via `apachectl configtest'. |

| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2378 |
| |
| *) Make sure the "install" target of the top-level Makefile doesn't break |

| Ultrix the result code of an "if" construct is 1 if the "then" clause |
| didn't match). [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add an additional "dummy" target to the "$(LIB)" target in generated |
| modules/xxx/Makefile's to avoid problems with SVR4 Make under "full-DSO" |

| [Jens-Uwe Mager <jum helios.de>] |
| |
| *) Workaround for configure script and old `test' commands which do not |

| ap_spawn_child_err_buff became ap_bspawn_child |
| spawn_child was obsoleted and moved to compat.h |
| [Brian Behlendorf] |
| |
| *) Upgrade the child spawning code in mod_rewrite for the RewriteMap |
| programs: ap_spawn_child_err() is used and the Win32 case now uses |
| CreateProcess() instead of a low-level execl() (which caused problems in |
| the past under Win32). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) A few cosmetics and trivial enhancements to APXS to make the |
| generated Makefile more user friendly. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Proxy Fix: The proxy special failure routine ap_proxyerror() |
| was updated to use the normal apache error processing, thereby allowing |
| proxy errors to be treated by ErrorDocument's as well. For this |
| purpose, a new module-to-core communication variable "error-notes" |
| was introduced; the proxy (and possibly other modules) communicates |
| its error text using this variable. Its content is copied to a new |
| cgi-env-var REDIRECT_ERROR_NOTES for use by ErrorDocuments. |
| The old proxy special error routine ap_proxy_log_uerror() |
| was replaced by regular ap_log_error() calls, many messages were made |
| more informative. |
| [Martin Kraemer] PR#494, 1259 |
| |
| *) SECURITY: A possible buffer overflow in the ftp proxy was fixed. |
| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Transform the configure message "You need root privileges for suEXEC" |
| from a fatal error into a (more friendly) warning because the building |
| ("make") of Apache we can allow, of course. Root privileges are needed |
| only for the installation step ("make install"). So make sure the |
| user is aware of this fact but let him proceed as long as he can. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2288 |
| |
| *) Renamed three more functions to common ap_ prefix which we missed at the |
| Big Symbol Renaming because they're #defines and not real C functions: |
| is_default_port(), default_port(), http_method(). |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) A zero-length name after a $ in an SSI document should cause |
| just the $ to be in the expansion. This was broken during the |
| security fixes in 1.2.5. [Dean Gaudet] PR#1921, 2249 |
| |
| *) Call ap_destroy_sub_req() in ap_add_cgi_vars() to reclaim some |
| memory. [Rob Saccoccio <robs InfiniteTechnology.com>] PR#2252 |

| used under AIX) because of recent changes to function names. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3b7 |
| |
| *) Make sure a MIME-type can be forced via a RewriteRule even when no |
| substitution takes place, for instance via the following rule: |
| ``RewriteRule ^myscript$ - [T=application/x-httpd-cgi]'' This was often |
| requested by users in the past to force a single script without a .cgi |
| extension and outside any cgi-bin dirs to be executed as a CGI program. |

| [Rick Ohnemus <rick ecompcon.com>] |
| |
| *) Make mod_rewrite use ap_open_piped_log() for RewriteLog directive's |
| logfile instead of fiddling around itself with child spawning stuff. |

| |
| *) Made RefererIgnore case-insensitive. |
| |

| "safe" under Win32. In: mod_include.c, mod_mime_magic.c |

| [Ben Laurie] PR#2238 |
| |

| instead of C file descriptors. |
| [Ben Laurie and Bill Stoddard <wgstodda us.ibm.com>] PR#1129, 1607 |
| |
| *) The proxy cache would store an incorrect content-length in the cached |
| file copy after a cache update. That resulted in repeated fetching |
| of the original copy instead of using the cached copy. |
| [Ernst Kloppenburg <kloppen isr.uni-stuttgart.de>] PR#2094 |
| |
| *) The Makefiles assumed that DSO files are build via $(LD). This |
| is broken for two reasons: First we never defined at least LD=ld |
| somewhere to make sure this works (it was silently assumed that most Make |
| provide a built-in LD definition - ARGL!) and second using the generic LD |
| variable is not the truth. Instead a special variable named LD_SHLIB is |
| reasonable because although "ld" is usually the default, the command for |
| building DSO files can be "libtool" or even "cc" on some systems. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Replace the AddVersionPlatform directive with ServerTokens which |
| provides for more control over the format of the Server: |
| header line. SERVER_SUBVERSION is no longer supported; |
| all module should use the ap_add_version_component() |
| API function instead. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Support for the NCR MP/RAS 3.0 |
| [John Withers <withers semi.kcsc.mwr.irs.gov>] |
| |
| *) The LDFLAGS_SHLIB_EXPORT variable of src/Configuration[.tmpl] was |
| not retrieved in src/Configure and thus was not useable. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Various Makefile consistency cleanups: |
| - make OSDIR also automatically be relative to src/ like INCDIR |
| - SUBDIRS is now generated in src/Makefile only and not in |
| Makefile.config because it is a local define for this location. |
| - remove BROKEN_BPRINTF_FLAGS because is it no longer used inside |
| any Makefile but make sure that at least the "-K inline" is kept in |
| CFLAGS for SCO 5. |
| - update the "depend" targets in Makefile.tmpl files to use $(OSDIR), too. |
| - updated the dependencies theirself |
| - removed not existing SHLIB variable from "clean" targets |
| - replaced SHLIB_OBJS/SHLIBS_OBJ consistently with OBJS_PIC because OBJS |
| already exists and OBJS_PIC are also just plain objects and have not |
| directly to do with "shared" things. The only difference is that they |
| contain PIC. So OBJS_PIC is the more canonical name. |
| - Updated the Makefile-dependency lines for OBJS_PIC |
| - Removed the Makefile-dependency line in Configure to avoid double |
| definitions |
| - replaced ugly xx-so.o/xx.so-o hack with a clean and consistent usage |
| of xxx.lo as GNU libtool does with its PIC objects |
| - reduce local complexity in modules Makefile.tmpl by moving the last |
| existing target "depend" to the generation section in Configure, too. |
| - removed the historical $(SPACER) which was used in the past together |
| with BROKEN_BPRINTF_FLAGS to avoid zig-zags in the build process. This |
| is no longer needed. |
| - force the build and run of the gen_xxx programs under main/ as the |
| first step before building the objects because it looks cleaner |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |

| |
| *) When opening "configuration" files (like httpd.conf, htaccess |
| and htpasswd), Apache will not allow them to be non-/dev/null |
| device files. This closes a DoS hole. At the same time, |
| we use ap_pfopen to open these files to handle timeouts. |
| [Jim Jagielski, Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Apache will now log the reason its httpd children exit if they exit |
| due to an unexpected signal. (It requires a new porting define, |
| SYS_SIGLIST, which if defined should point to a list of text |
| descriptions of the signals available. See PORTING.) [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) WIN32: chdir() doesn't make sense in a multithreaded environment |
| like WIN32. Before, Win32 CGI's could have had sporadic failures |
| if a chdir call from one thread was made between another chdir call |
| and a spawn in another thread. So, for now don't chdir for CGI scripts |
| in WIN32. The current CGI "spec" is unclear as to whether it's |
| necessary. Long-term fix is to either serialize the chdir/spawn combo |
| or use WIN32 native calls to spawn a process. This temp fix was |
| necessary to remove this as a showstopper for 1.3's release. |
| [Brian Behlendorf] |
| |
| *) Cleanup the suEXEC support in APACI and make it more safe: |
| 1. Add big fat hint in INSTALL about risks and to read the |
| htdocs/manual/suexec.html document before using the suexec-related |
| configure options. |
| 2. Make sure the user has at least provided one --suexec-xxxx option |
| (specifies suEXEC parameters) in addition to --enable-suexec option. |
| If only --enable-suexec is given APACI stops with a hint to INSTALL |
| and htdocs/manual/suexec.html documents. |
| 3. Provide two additional --suexec-xxxx options to make the suEXEC |
| configuration complete (especially for package maintainers who else |
| had to patch the source tree) by providing ways to configure minimal |
| UID/GID and safe PATH, too. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Cleanup of the `configure --shadow' process: |
| - make sure the configure script creates its temporary files in the |
| shadow tree to avoid conflicts with parallel configure runs |
| - removed unnecessary option "-r" from "rm" call for Makefiles |
| - make sure the configure scripts creates the shadow-wrapper Makefile |
| only when no shadow trees already exists |
| - make sure "make distclean" removes the shadow-wrapper Makefile but only |
| when no more shadow trees exists |
| - overhauled mkshadow.sh script: now its more IFS-safe and approx. twice |
| as fast (in the past it needed 70sec, now it runs just 38sec) |
| - make sure CVS does not complain about the created files |
| Makefille.<gnutriple> and directories src.<gnutriple> |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Added the ap_add_version_component() API routine and the |
| AddVersionPlatform core directive. The first allows modules to |
| declare themselves in the Server response header field value, |
| augmenting the SERVER_SUBVERSION define in the Configuration file |
| with run-time settings (more useful in a loadable-module environment). |
| AddVersionPlatform inserts a comment such as "(UNIX)" or "(Win32)" |
| into the server version string. [Ken Coar] PR#2056 |

| [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Make sure the module execution order is correct even when some modules |
| are loaded under runtime (`LoadModule') via the DSO mechanism: |
| 1. The list of loaded modules is now a dynamically allocated one |
| and not the original statically list from modules.c |
| 2. The loaded modules are now correctly setup by LoadModule for |
| later use by the AddModule command. |
| 3. When the DSO mechanism for modules is used APACI's `install' |
| target now enables all created `LoadModule' lines per default because |
| this is both already expected by the user _and_ needed to avoid |
| confusion with the next point and reduces the Makefile.tmpl complexity |
| 4. When the DSO mechanism for modules is used, APACI's `install' |
| target now additionally makes sure the module list is reconstructed |
| via a complete `ClearModuleList+AddModule...' entry. |
| 5. The support tool `apxs' now also makes sure an AddModule command |
| is added in addition to the LoadModule command. |
| 6. The modules.c generation was extended to now contain two |
| comments to make sure no one is confused by the confusing terminology |
| of loading/linking (we use load=link+load & link=activate instead of |
| the obvious load=activate & link=link :-( ) |
| This way now there is no longer a difference under execution time between |
| statically and dynamically linked modules. |

| |
| *) Just having APACI's localstatedir is too general and not enough for most |
| of the systems. 1.3b6 again required manual APACI patches by package |
| maintainers from Red Hat and FreeBSD because for their filesystem layout a |
| little bit more flexibility in configuring the paths is needed. Hence we |
| provide three additional configure options (--runtimedir, --logfiledir, |
| --proxycachedir) which now can be used for more granular adjustments if |
| --localstatedir is not enough to fit the particular needs. As a nice |
| side-effect this reduces some subdir fiddling in configure+Makefile.tmpl. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Make the install root for "make install" in APACI's Makefile overrideable |
| by package authors. This way we are even more friendly to package |
| maintainers (especially Debian and Red Hat) who build for the real prefix |
| via "configure --prefix=/<real>" but use a different local prefix via |
| "make root=/tmp/apache install" for rolling the package without bristling |
| the target location on their system. |

| |
| *) ++++ THE BIG SYMBOL RENAMING ++++ |
| To avoid symbol clashes with third-party code compiled into the server, |
| we globally applied the prefix "ap_" to the following classes of |
| functions: |
| - Apache provided general functions (e.g., ap_cpystrn) |
| - Public API functions (e.g., palloc, bgets) |
| - Private functions which we can't make static (because of |
| cross-object usage) but should be (e.g., new_connection) |
| For backward source compatibility a new header file named compat.h was |
| created which provides defines for the old symbol names and can be used |
| by third-party module authors. |
| [The Apache Group] |
| |
| *) Added dynamic shared object (DSO) support for SVR4-derivates: The |
| problem under SVR4 is that there is no command flag to force the linker |
| to export the global symbols of the httpd executable therewith they are |
| available to the DSO's. Instead of problematic hacks like creating a |
| dummy.so file (containing dummy references to all global symbols) the |
| httpd binary is linked against, we use a clean trick stolen from Perl 5: |
| Placing the Apache core code itself into a DSO library named libhttpd.so. |
| This way the global symbols _HAVE_ to be exported and thus are available |
| to any manually loaded DSO's under runtime. To reduce the impact to the |
| user to null we go even further and create a stub httpd executable which |
| automatically keeps track of the DSO library loading itself and thus |
| hides the complete mechanism from the user. Although the generation of |
| this DSO library is automatically triggered for platforms which |
| essentially need it (mostly all SVR4-derivates) it can be also enabled |
| manually via the Rule SHARED_CORE. This can be interesting in the future |
| where we perhaps exploit this libhttpd.so mechanism for providing nifty |
| features like graceful upgrades, or whatever. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall, Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Build the libraries before building the rest of the tools. [Ben Hyde] |
| |
| *) Add "distclean" target to src/-Makefiles to provide "make distclean" also |
| inside the src subtree (i.e. for non-APACI users). Following GNU Makefile |
| conventions while "clean" removes only stuff created by "all" targets, |
| "distclean" additionally removes the stuff from the configuration |
| process. This way "make distclean" (hence the name) provides a fresh |
| source tree as it was for distribution. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Allow top-level (APACI) Makefile to break on build errors |
| the same way the src/ subtree Makefiles breaks on them by replacing the |
| initial APACI sed-subdir-display-kludge with a more clean |
| variable-passing-solution: variable SDP can optionally hold the subdir |
| prefix which is consistently used for displaying the subdir movement. |
| This way even the top-level Makefile can stop correctly on errors as the |
| user expects. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fixed ordering of argument checks for RewriteBase directive. |
| [Todd Eigenschink <eigenstr mixi.net>] PR#2045 |
| |
| *) Change Win32 IS_MODULE to SHARED_MODULE to match Unix' method of |
| indicating that a module is being compiled for dynamic loading. Also |
| remove #define IS_MODULE from modules and add SHARED_MODULE define |
| to the mak/dsp files. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Reduce logging level of "normal" warning messages to APLOG_INFO, |
| since we are now logging APLOG_WARNING by default. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) PORT: OS/2 tweak to deal with multiple .exe targets. [Brian Havard] |
| |
| *) Add documentation file and src/Configuration.tmpl entry for the |
| experimental mod_mmap_static module. Because although it is and marked as |
| an experimental one it is distributed and thus should be documented and |
| prepared for configuration the same way as all others modules. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add query (-q) option to apxs support tool to be able to manually query |
| specific settings from apxs. This is needed for instance when you |
| manually want to access Apache's header files and you need to assemble |
| the -I option. Now you can do -I`apxs -q INCLUDEDIR`. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Now src/Configure uses a fallback strategy for the shared object support |
| on platforms where no explicit information is available: If a Perl |
| installation exists we ask it about its shared object support and if it's |
| the dlopen-style one we shamelessly guess the compiler and linker flags |
| for creating shared objects from Perls knowledge. Of course, the user is |
| warning about what we are doing and informed that he should send us |
| the guessed flags when they work. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Provide APACI --without-support option to be able to disable the build |
| and installation of the support tools from the src/support/ area. |
| Although its useful to have these installed per default we should provide |
| a way to compile and install without them for backward-compatibility. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add of the new APache eXtenSion (apxs) support tool for building and |
| installing modules into an _already installed_ Apache package through the |
| dynamic shared object (DSO) mechanism [mod_so.c]. The trick here is that |
| this approach actually doesn't need the Apache source tree. The |
| (APACI-installed) server package is enough, because this now includes the |
| Apache C header files (PREFIX/include) and the new APXS tool |
| (SBINDIR/apxs). The intend is to provide a handy tool for third-party |
| module authors to build their Apache modules _OUTSIDE_ the Apache source |
| tree while avoiding them to fiddle around with the totally platform |
| dependend way of compiling DSO files. The tool supports all ranges of |
| modules, from trivial ones (single mod_foo.c) to complex ones (like PHP3 |
| which has a mod_php3.c plus a pre-built libmodphp3-so.a) and even can |
| on-the-fly generate a minimalistic Makefile and sample module for the |
| first step to provide both a quick success event and to demonstrate the |
| APXS mechanism to module authors. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fix core dumps in use of CONNECT in proxy. |
| [<Rainer.Scherg rexroth.de>] PR#1326, #1573, #1942 |
| |
| *) Modify the log directives in httpd.conf-dist files to use CustomLog |
| so that users have examples of how CustomLog can be used. |
| [Lars Eilebrecht] |
| |
| *) Add the new Apache Autoconf-style Interface (APACI) for the top-level of |
| the Apache distribution tree. Until Apache 1.3 there was no real |
| out-of-the-box batch-capable build and installation procedure for the |
| complete Apache package. This is now provided by a top-level "configure" |
| script and a corresponding top-level "Makefile.tmpl" file. The goal is |
| to provide a GNU Autoconf-style frontend which is capable to both drive |
| the old src/Configure stuff in batch and additionally installs the |
| package with a GNU-conforming directory layout. Any options from the old |
| configuration scheme are available plus a lot of new options for flexibly |
| customizing Apache. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |

| *) API: ap_snprintf() code mutated into ap_vformatter(), which is |
| a generic printf-style routine that can call arbitrary output |
| routines. Use this to replace http_bprintf.c. Add new routines |
| psprintf(), pvsprintf() which allocate the exact amount of memory |
| required for a string from a pool. Use psprintf() to clean up |
| various bits of code which used ap_snprintf()/pstrdup(). |
| [Dean Gaudet] |

| ap_snprintf() has different semantics and formatting codes than |
| snprintf(). [Dean Gaudet] |

| *) SIGXCPU and SIGXFSZ are now reset to SIG_DFL at boot-time. This |

| *) Major cleanups to the Configure script to make it and its generated |
| Makefiles again readable and maintainable: add SRCDIR option, removed |
| INCLUDES_DEPTH[0-2] kludge, cleanup of TARGET option, cleanup of |
| generated sections, consequently added Makefile headers with inheritance |
| information, added subdir movement messages for easier following where |
| the build process currently stays (more verbose then standard Make, less |
| verbose than GNU make), same style to comments in the Configure script, |
| added Apache license header, fixed a few bugs, etc. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |

| |
| *) Making the hard-coded cross-module function call mime_find_ct() (from |
| mod_proxy to mod_mime) obsolete by making sure the API hook for MIME type |
| checking is really called even for proxy requests except for URLs with |
| HTTP schemes (because there we can optimize by not running the type |
| checking hooks due to the fact that the proxy gets the MIME Content-type |
| from the remote host later). This change cleans up mod_mime by removing |
| the ugly export kludge, makes the one-liner file mod_mime.h obsolete, and |
| especially unbundles mod_proxy and mod_mime. This way they both now can |
| be compiled as shared objects and are no longer tied together. |

| *) Performance improvements to invoke_handler(). |
| [Dmitry Khrustalev <dima bog.msu.su>] |
| |
| *) Added support for building shared objects even for library-style modules |
| (which are built from more than one object file). This now provides the |
| ability to build mod_proxy as a shared object module. Additionally |
| modules like mod_example are now also supported for shared object |
| building because the generated Makefiles now no longer assume there is at |
| least one statically linked module. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) API: Clarify usage of content_type, handler, content_encoding, |
| content_language and content_languages fields in request_rec. They |

| *) Minor cleanup in http_main -- split QNX and OS2 specific "mmap" |
| scoreboard code into separate #defines -- USE_POSIX_SCOREBOARD |
| and USE_OS2_SCOREBOARD. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fix one more special locking problem for RewriteMap programs in |
| mod_rewrite: According to the documentation of flock(), "Locks are on |
| files, not file descriptors. That is, file descriptors duplicated |
| through dup(2) or fork(2) do not result in multiple instances of a lock, |
| but rather multiple references to a single lock. If a process holding a |
| lock on a file forks and the child explicitly unlocks the file, the |
| parent will lose its lock.". To overcome this we have to make sure the |
| RewriteLock file is opened _AFTER_ the childs were spawned which is now |
| the case by opening it in the child_init instead of the module_init API |
| hook. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#1029 |
| |
| *) Change to Location and LocationMatch semantics. LocationMatch no |
| longer lets a single slash match multiple adjacent slashes in the |
| URL. This change is for consistency with RewriteRule and |
| AliasMatch. Multiple slashes have meaning in URLs that they do |
| not have in (some) filesystems. Location on the other hand can |
| be considered a shorthand for a more complicated regex, and it |
| does match multiple slashes with a single slash -- which is |
| also consistent with the Alias directive. |

| contains the set of defines used when Apache is compiled on a platform. |
| This file can then be included by external modules before including |
| any Apache header files in case they are being built separately from |
| Apache. Along with this change, a couple of minor changes were |
| made to make Apache's #defines coexist peacefully with any autoconf |
| defines an external module might have. [Rasmus Lerdorf] |
| |
| *) Fix mod_rewrite for the ugly API case where <VirtualHost> sections exist |
| but without any RewriteXXXXX directives. Here mod_rewrite is given no |
| chance by the API to initialize its per-server configuration and thus |
| receives the wrong one from the main server. This is now avoided by |
| remembering the server together with the config structure while |
| configuring and later assuming there is no config when we see a |
| difference between the remembered server and the one calling us. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#1790 |
| |
| *) Fixed the DBM RewriteMap support for mod_rewrite: First the support now |
| is automatically disabled under configure time when the dbm_xxx functions |
| are not available. Second, two heavy source code errors in the DBM |
| support code were fixed. This makes DBM RewriteMap's usable again after |
| a long time of brokenness. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#1696 |
| |
| *) Now all configuration files support Unix-style line-continuation via |
| the trailing backslash ("\") character. This enables us to write down |
| complex or just very long directives in a more readable way. The |
| backslash character has to be really the last character before the |
| newline and it has not been prefixed by another (escaping) backslash. |

| |
| *) mod_test_util_uri.c created which tests the logic in util_uri.c. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: Rewrite of absoluteURI handling, and in particular how |
| absoluteURIs match vhosts. Unless a request is a proxy request, a |
| "http://host" url is treated as if a similar "Host:" header had been |
| supplied. This change was made to support future HTTP/1.x protocols |
| which may require clients to send absoluteURIs for all requests. |
| |
| In order to achieve this change subtle changes were made to the API. In a |
| request_rec, r->hostlen has been removed. r->unparsed_uri now exists so |
| that the unmodified uri can be retrieved easily. r->proxyreq is not set |
| by the core, modules must set it during the post_read_request or |
| translate_names phase. |
| |
| Plus changes to the virtualhost test suite for absoluteURI testing. |
| |
| This fixes several bugs with the proxy proxying requests to vhosts |
| managed by the same httpd. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: Cleanup of code in http_vhost.c, and remove vhost matching |

| |
| *) API: A new source module main/util_uri.c; It contains a routine |
| parse_uri_components() and friends which breaks a URI into its component |
| parts. These parts are stored in a uri_components structure called |
| parsed_uri within each request_rec, and are available to all modules. |
| Additionally, an unparse routine is supplied which re-assembles the URI |
| components back to an URI, optionally hiding the username:password@ part |
| from ftp proxy requests, and other useful routines. Within the structure, |
| you find on a ready-for-use basis: |
| scheme; /* scheme ("http"/"ftp"/...) */ |
| hostinfo; /* combined [user[:password]@]host[:port] */ |
| user; /* user name, as in http://user:passwd@host:port/ */ |
| password; /* password, as in http://user:passwd@host:port/ */ |
| hostname; /* hostname from URI (or from Host: header) */ |
| port_str; /* port string (integer representation is in "port") */ |
| path; /* the request path (or "/" if only scheme://host was given) */ |
| query; /* Everything after a '?' in the path, if present */ |
| fragment; /* Trailing "#fragment" string, if present */ |
| This is meant to serve as the platform for *BIG* savings in |
| code complexity for the proxy module (and maybe the vhost logic). |

| particular alternative is chosen randomly (this is an essential |
| functionality needed for balancing between backend-servers when using |
| Apache as a Reverse Proxy. The looked up value here is a list of |
| servers). Second, `int' with the built-in maps named `tolower' and |
| `toupper' which can be used to map URL parts to a fixed case (this is an |
| essential feature to fix the case of server names when doing mass |

| instead. In addition to simplifying the build a little bit, this |
| also makes it clear when a module is referencing something in a |
| other than kosher manner (e.g., the proxy including mod_mime.h). |
| Module-private header files (the proxy, mod_mime, the regex library, |
| and mod_rewrite) have not been moved to src/include; nor have |
| the OS-abstraction files. [Ken Coar] |

| |
| *) mod_unique_id was erroneously generating a second unique id when |
| an internal redirect occured. Such redirects occur, for example, |
| when processing a DirectoryIndex match. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: table_add, table_merge, and table_set include implicit pstrdup() |
| of the key and value. But in many cases this is not required |
| because the key/value is a constant, or the value has been built |
| by pstrcat() or other similar means. New routines table_addn, |
| table_mergen, and table_setn have been added to the API, these |
| routines do not pstrdup() their arguments. The core code and |
| standard modules were changed to take advantage of these routines. |
| The resulting server is up to 20% faster in some situations. |
| |
| Note that it is easy to get code subtly wrong if you pass a key/value |
| which is in a pool other than the pool of the table. The only |
| safe thing to do is to pass key/values which are in the pool of |
| the table, or in one of the ancestors of the pool of the table. |
| i.e. if the table is part of a subrequest, a value from the main |
| request's pool is OK since the subrequest pool is a sub_pool of the |
| main request's pool (and therefore has a lifespan at most as long as |
| the main pool). There is debugging code which can detect improper |
| usage, enabled by defining POOL_DEBUG. See alloc.c for more details. |
| [Dmitry Khrustalev <dima bog.msu.su>, Dean Gaudet] |

| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) PORT: Some older *nix dialects cannot automatically start scripts |

| have been writing to use table as if it were an opaque type, but even |
| some standard modules got this wrong. By changing the definition |
| to "typedef struct table table" module authors will receive compile |
| time warnings that they're doing the wrong thing. This change |
| facilitates future changes with more sophisticated table |
| structures. Specifically, module authors should be using table_elts() |
| to get access to an array_header * for the table. [Dean Gaudet] |

| |
| *) For clarity the following compile time definition was changed: |
| |
| SAFE_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT -> SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT |
| |
| Also, for example, HAVE_MMAP would mean to use mmap() scoreboards |
| and not be a general notice that the OS has mmap(). Now the |
| HAVE_MMAP/SHMGET #defines strictly are informational that the |
| OS has that method of shared memory; the type to use for |
| the scoreboard is a seperate #define (USE_MMAP_SCOREBOARD |
| and USE_SHMGET_SCOREBOARD). This allows outside modules to |
| determine if shared memory is available and allows Apache |
| to determine the best method to use for the scoreboard. |

| *) PORT: OSF/1 now uses USE_FLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT to solve PR#467. |
| The choice of flock vs. fcntl was made based on timings which showed that |
| even on non-NFS, non-exported filesystems fcntl() was an order of |
| magnitude slower. It also uses SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT so |

| |
| *) Create LARGE_WRITE_THRESHOLD define which determines how many |

| doing a writev() to assemble multiple buffers in one system |
| call. This is critical for modules such as mod_include, |
| mod_autoindex, mod_php3 which all use bputc()/bputs() of smaller |
| strings in some cases. The result would be extra effort |
| setting up writev(), and in many cases extra effort building |

| |
| *) Add debugging code to alloc.c. Defining ALLOC_DEBUG provides a |
| rudimentary memory debugger which can be used on live servers with |
| low impact -- it sets all allocated and freed memory bytes to 0xa5. |
| Defining ALLOC_USE_MALLOC will cause the alloc code to use malloc() |
| and free() for each object. This is far more expensive and should |

| explicitly lists the ip:port pairs that are to be used for name-vhosts. |
| From a given ip:port, regardless what the Host: header is, you can |
| only reach the vhosts defined on that ip:port. The precedence of |

| redirections (previously it only did temporary redirect correctly). |
| [Ken Coar, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) mod_userdir was modifying r->finfo in cases where it wasn't setting |
| r->filename. Since those two are meant to be in sync with each other |

| |
| *) If BUFFERED_LOGS is defined then mod_log_config will do atomic |
| buffered writes -- that is, it will buffer up to PIPE_BUF (i.e. 4k) |
| bytes before writing, but it will never split a log entry across a |
| buffer boundary. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: the short_score record has been split into two pieces, one which |
| the parent writes on, and one which the child writes on. As part of |
| this change the get_scoreboard_info() function was removed, and |
| scoreboard_image was exported. This change fixes a race condition |
| in file based scoreboard systems, and speeds up changes involving the |
| scoreboard in earlier 1.3 development. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: New register_other_child() API (see http_main.h) which allows |
| modules to register children with the parent for maintenance. It |
| is disabled by defining NO_OTHER_CHILD. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: New piped_log API (see http_log.h) which implements piped logs, |
| and will use register_other_child to implement reliable piped logs |
| when it is available. The reliable piped logs part can be disabled |
| by defining NO_RELIABLE_PIPED_LOGS. At the moment reliable piped |
| logs is only available on Unix. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: set_last_modified() broken into set_last_modified(), set_etag(), and |
| meets_conditions(). This allows conditional HTTP selection to be |
| handled separately from the storing of the header fields, and provides |
| the ability for CGIs to set their own ETags for conditional checking. |

| Some things (like RewriteMaps) were checked/performed even if they |
| weren't supposed to be. [Ken Coar] PR #991 |
| |
| *) Implement a new timer scheme which eliminates the need to call alarm() all |
| the time. Instead a counter in the scoreboard for each child is used to |
| show when the child has made forward progress. The parent samples this |
| counter every scoreboard maintenance cycle, and issues SIGALRM if no |
| progress has been made in the timeout period. This reduces the static |
| request best-case syscall count to 22 from 29. This scheme is only |
| used by systems with memory-based scoreboards. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) The proxy now properly handles CONNECT requests which are sent |
| to proxy servers when using ProxyRemote. [Marc Slemko] PR#1024 |
| |
| *) A script called apachectl has been added to the support |
| directory. This script allows you to do things such as |
| "apachectl start" and "apachectl restart" from the command |
| line. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Modules and core routines are now put into libraries, which |
| simplifies the link line tremendously (among other advantages). |
| [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Some of the MD5 names defined in Apache have been renamed to have |
| an `ap_' prefix to avoid conflicts with routines supplied by |
| external libraries. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Removal of mod_auth_msql.c from the distribution. There are many |
| other options for databases today. Rather than offer one option, |
| offer none at this time. mod_auth_msql and other SQL database |
| authentication modules can be found at the Apache Module Registry. |
| http://modules.apache.org/ It would be nice to offer a generic |
| mod_auth_sql option in the near future. |
| |
| *) PORT: BeOS support added [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Configure no longer accepts the -make option, since it creates |
| Makefile on the fly based on Makefile.tmpl and Configuration. |
| |
| *) Apache now gracefully shuts down when it receives a SIGTERM, instead |
| of forcibly killing off all its processes and exiting without |
| cleaning up. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) API: A new field in the request_rec, r->mtime, has been added to |
| avoid gratuitous parsing of date strings. It is intended to hold |
| the last-modified date of the resource (if applicable). An |
| update_mtime() routine has also been added to advance it if |
| appropriate. [Roy Fielding, Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: If a htaccess file can not be read due to bad permissions, |
| deny access to the directory with a HTTP_FORBIDDEN. The previous |
| behavior was to ignore the htaccess file if it could not be read. |
| This change may make some setups with unreadable htaccess files |
| stop working. [Marc Slemko] PR#817 |
| |
| *) Add aplog_error() providing a mechanism to define levels of |
| verbosity to the server error logging. This addition also provides |
| the ability to log errors using syslogd. Error logging is configurable |
| on a per-server basis using the LogLevel directive. Conversion |
| of log_*() in progress. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Further enhance aplog_error() to not log filename, line number, and |
| errno information when it isn't applicable. [Ken Coar, Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) WIN32: Canonicalise filenames under Win32. Short filenames are |
| converted to long ones. Backslashes are converted to forward |
| slashes. Case is converted to lower. Parts of URLs that do not |
| correspond to files are left completely alone. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) PORT: 2 new OSs added to the list of ports: |
| Encore's UMAX V: Arieh Markel <amarkel encore.com> |
| Acorn RISCiX: Stephen Borrill <sborrill xemplar.co.uk> |
| |
| *) Add the server version (SERVER_VERSION macro) to the "server |
| configured and running" entry in the error_log. Also build an |
| object file at link-time that contains the current time |
| (SERVER_BUILT global const char[]), and include that in the |
| message. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Set r->headers_out when sending responses from the proxy. |
| This fixes things such as the logging of headers sent from |
| the proxy. [Marc Slemko] PR#659 |
| |
| *) support/httpd_monitor is no longer distributed because the |
| scoreboard should not be file based if at all possible. Use |
| mod_status to see current server snapshot. |
| |
| *) (set_file_slot): New function, allowing auth directives to be |
| independent of the server root, so the server documents can be |
| moved to a different directory or machine more easily. |
| [David J. MacKenzie] |
| |
| *) If no TransferLog is given explicitly, decline |
| to log. This supports coexistence with other logging modules, |
| such as the custom one that UUNET uses. [David J. MacKenzie] |
| |
| *) Check for titles in server-parsed HTML files. |
| Ignore leading newlines and returns in titles. The old behavior |
| of replacing a newline after <title> with a space causes the |
| title to be misaligned in the listing. [David J. MacKenzie] |
| |
| *) Change mod_cern_meta to be configurable on a per-directory basis. |
| [David J. MacKenzie] |
| |
| *) Add 'Include' directive to allow inclusion of configuration |
| files within configuration files. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Proxy errors on connect() are logged to the error_log (nothing |
| new); now they include the IP address and port that failed |
| (*that's* new). [Ken Coar, Marc Slemko] PR#352 |
| |
| *) Various architectures now define USE_MMAP_FILES which causes |
| the server to use mmap() for static files. There are two |
| compile-time tunables MMAP_THRESHOLD (minimum number of bytes |
| required to use mmap(), default is 0), and MMAP_SEGMENT_SIZE (maximum |
| number of bytes written in one cycle from a single mmap()d object, |
| default 32768). [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: Added post_read_request API phase which is run right after reading |
| the request from a client, or right after an internal redirect. It is |
| useful for modules setting environment variables that depend only on |
| the headers/contents of the request. It does not run during subrequests |
| because subrequests inherit pretty much everything from the main |
| request. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Added mod_unique_id which is used to generate a unique identifier for |
| each hit, available in the environment variable UNIQUE_ID. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) init_modules is now called after the error logs have been opened. This |
| allows modules to emit information messages into the error logs. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed proxy-pass-through feature of mod_rewrite; Added error logging |
| information for case where proxy module is not available. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) PORT: Apache has need for mutexes to serialize its children around |
| accept. In prior versions either fcntl file locking or flock file |
| locking were used. The method is chosen by the definition of |
| USE_xxx_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT in conf.h. xxx is FCNTL for fcntl(), |
| and FLOCK for flock(). New options have been added: |
| - SYSVSEM to use System V style semaphores |
| - PTHREAD to use POSIX threads (appears to work on Solaris only) |
| - USLOCK to use IRIX uslock |
| Based on timing various techniques, the following changes were made |
| to the defaults: |
| - Linux 2.x uses flock instead of fcntl |
| - Solaris 2.x uses pthreads |
| - IRIX uses SysV semaphores -- however multiprocessor IRIX boxes |
| work far faster if you -DUSE_USLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT |
| [Dean Gaudet, Pierre-Yves Kerembellec <Pierre-Yves.Kerembellec vtcom.fr>, |
| Martijn Koster <m.koster pobox.com>] |
| |
| *) PORT: The semantics of accept/select make it very desirable to use |
| mutexes to serialize accept when multiple Listens are in use. But |
| in the case where only a single socket is open it is sometimes |
| redundant to serialize accept(). Not all unixes do a good job with |
| potentially dozens of children blocked on accept() on the same |
| socket. It's now possible to define SINGLE_LISTEN_UNSERIALIZED_ACCEPT and |
| the server will avoid serialization when listening on only one socket, |
| and use serialization when listening on multiple sockets. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#467 |
| |
| *) Configure changes: TestLib replaced by TestCompile, which has |
| some additional capability (such as doing a sanity check of |
| the compiler and flags selected); the version of Solaris is now |
| available via the #define value of SOLARIS2; IRIX n32bit libs |
| now supported and selectable by new Configuration Rule: IRIXN32; |
| We no longer default to -O2 optimization. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Updated Configure: Configuration now uses AddModule to specify |
| module source or binary file location, relative to src directory. |
| Modules can be dropped into modules/extra, or in their own |
| directory, and modules can come with a Makefile or Configure can |
| create one. Modules can add compiler or library information to |
| generated Makefiles. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Source core re-organisation: distributed modules are now in |
| modules/standard. All other source code is in main. OS-specific |
| code is in os/{unix,emx,win32} directories. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) mod_browser has been removed, since it's replaced by mod_setenvif. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fix another long-standing bug in sub_req_lookup_file where it would |
| happily skip past access checks on subdirectories looked up with |
| relative paths. (It's used by mod_dir, mod_negotiation, |
| and mod_include.) [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) directory_walk optimization to reduce an O(N*M) loop to O(N+M) where |
| N is the number of <Directory> sections, and M is the number of |
| components in the filename of an object. |
| |
| To achieve this optimization the following config changes were made: |
| - Wildcards (* and ?, not the regex forms) in <Directory>s, |
| <Files>s, and <Location>s now treat a slash as a special |
| character. For example "/home/*/public_html" previously would |
| match "/home/a/andrew/public_html", now it only matches things |
| like "/home/bob/public_html". This mimics /bin/sh behaviour. |
| - It's possible now to use [] wildcarding in <Directory>, <Files> |
| or <Location>. |
| - Regex <Directory>s are applied after all non-regex <Directory>s. |
| |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fix a bug introduced in 1.3a1 directory_walk regarding .htaccess files |
| and corrupted paths. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Enhanced and cleaned up the URL rewriting engine of mod_rewrite: |
| First the grouped parts of RewriteRule pattern matches (parenthesis!) can |
| be accessed now via backreferences $1..$9 in RewriteConds test-against |
| strings in addition to RewriteRules subst string. Second the grouped |
| parts of RewriteCond pattern matches (parenthesis!) can be accessed now |
| via backreferences %1..%9 both in following RewriteCond test-against |
| strings and RewriteRules subst string. This provides maximum flexibility |
| through the use of backreferences. |
| Additionally the rewriting engine was cleaned up by putting common |
| code to the new expand_backrefs_inbuffer() function. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) When merging the main server's <Directory> and <Location> sections into |
| a vhost, put the main server's first and the vhost's second. Otherwise |
| the vhost can't override the main server. [Dean Gaudet] PR#717 |
| |
| *) The <Directory> code would merge and re-merge the same section after |
| a match was found, possibly causing problems with some modules. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) ip-based vhosts are stored and queried using a hashing function, which |
| has been shown to improve performance on servers with many ip-vhosts. |
| Some other changes had to be made to accommodate this: |
| - the * address for vhosts now behaves like _default_ |
| - the matching process now is: |
| - match an ip-vhost directly via hash (possibly matches main |
| server) |
| - if that fails, just pretend it matched the main server |
| - if so far only the main server has been matched, perform |
| name-based lookups (ServerName, ServerAlias, ServerPath) |
| *only on name-based vhosts* |
| - if they fail, look for _default_ vhosts |
| [Dean Gaudet, Dave Hankins <dhankins sugarat.net>] |
| |
| *) dbmmanage overhaul: |
| - merge dbmmanage and dbmmanage.new functionality, remove dbmmanage.new |
| - tie() to AnyDBM_File which will use one of DB_File, NDBM_File or |
| GDBM_File (-ldb, -lndbm, -lgdbm) (trying each in that order) |
| - provide better seed for rand |
| - prompt for password as per getpass(3) (turn off echo, read from |
| /dev/tty, etc.) |
| - use "newstyle" crypt based on $Config{osname} ($^O) |
| - will not add a user if already in database, use new `update' command |
| instead |
| - added `check' command to check a users' password |
| - added `import' command to convert existing password text-files or |
| dbm files exported with `view' |
| - more descriptive usage, general cleanup, 'use strict' clean, etc. |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Added psocket() which is a pool form of socket(), various places within |
| the proxy weren't properly blocking alarms while registering the cleanup |
| for its sockets. bclose() now uses pclose() and pclosesocket(). There |
| was a bug where the client socket was being close()d twice due a still |
| registered cleanup. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) A few cleanups were made to reduce time(), getpid(), and signal() calls. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) PORT: AIX >= 4.2 requires -lm due to libc changes. |
| [Jason Venner <jason idiom.com>] PR#667 |
| |
| *) Enable ``=""'' for RewriteCond directives to match against |
| the empty string. This is the preferred way instead of ``^$''. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fixed an infinite loop in mod_imap for references above the server root |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#748 |
| |
| *) mod_proxy now has a ReceiveBufferSize directive, similar to |
| SendBufferSize, so that the TCP window can be set appropriately |
| for LFNs. [Phillip A. Prindeville] |
| |
| *) mod_browser has been replaced by the more general mod_setenvif |
| (courtesy of Paul Sutton). BrowserMatch* directives are still |
| available, but are now joined by SetEnvIf*, UnSetEnvIf*, and |
| UnSetEnvIfZero directives. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) "HostnameLookups double" forces double-reverse DNS to succeed in |
| order for remote_host to be set (for logging, or for the env var |
| REMOTE_HOST). The old define MAXIMUM_DNS has been deprecated. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) mod_access overhaul: |
| - Now understands network/netmask syntax (i.e. 10.1.0.0/255.255.0.0) |
| and cidr syntax (i.e. 10.1.0.0/16). PR#762 |
| - Critical path was sped up by pre-computing a few things at config time. |
| - The undocumented syntax "allow user-agents" was removed, |
| the replacement is "allow from env=foobar" combined with mod_browser. |
| - When used with hostnames it now forces a double-reverse lookup |
| no matter what the directory settings are. This double-reverse |
| doesn't affect any of the other routines that use the remote |
| hostname. In particular it's still passed to CGIs and the log |
| without the double-reverse check. Related PR#860. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) When a large bwrite() occurs (larger than the internal buffer size), |
| while there is already something in the buffer, apache will combine |
| the large write and the buffer into a single writev(). (This is |
| in anticipation of using mmap() for reading files.) |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) In obscure cases where a partial socket write occurred while chunking, |
| Apache would omit the chunk header/footer on the next block. Cleaned |
| up other bugs/inconsistencies in error conditions in buff.c. Fixed |
| a bug where a long pause in DNS lookups could cause the last packet |
| of a response to be unduly delayed. [Roy Fielding, Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) API: Added child_exit function to module structure. This is called |
| once per "heavy-weight process" just before a server child exit()'s |
| e.g. when max_requests_per_child is reached, etc. |
| [Doug MacEachern, Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) mod_include cleanup showed that handle_else was being used to handle |
| endif. It didn't cause problems, but it was cleaned up too. |
| [Howard Fear] |
| |
| *) mod_cern_meta would attempt to find meta files for the directory itself |
| in some cases, but not in others. It now avoids it in all cases. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) mod_mime_magic would core dump if there was a decompression error. |
| [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer mch.sni.de>] PR#904 |
| |
| *) PORT: some variants of DGUX require -lsocket -lnsl |
| [Alexander L Jones <alex systems-options.co.uk>] PR#732 |
| |
| *) mod_autoindex now allows sorting of FancyIndexed directory listings |
| by the various fields (name, size, et cetera), either in ascending |
| or descending order. Just click on the column header. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) PORT: Various tweaks to eliminate pointer-int casting warnings on 64-bit |
| CPUs like the Alpha. Apache still stores ints in pointers, but that's |
| the relatively safe direction. [Dean Gaudet] PR#344 |
| |
| *) PORT: QNX mmap() support for faster/more reliable scoreboard handling. |
| [Igor N Kovalenko <infoh mail.wplus.net>] PR#683 |
| |
| *) child_main avoids an unneeded call to select() when there is only one |
| listening socket. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) In the event that the server is starved for idle servers it will |
| spawn 1, then 2, then 4, ..., then 32 servers each second, |
| doubling each second. It'll also give a warning in the errorlog |
| since the most common reason for this is a poor StartServers |
| setting. The define MAX_SPAWN_RATE can be used to raise/lower |
| the maximum. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Apache now provides an effectively unbuffered connection for |
| CGI scripts. This means that data will be sent to the client |
| as soon as the CGI pauses or stops output; previously, Apache would |
| buffer the output up to a fixed buffer size before sending, which |
| could result in the user viewing an empty page until the CGI finished |
| or output a complete buffer. It is no longer necessary to use an |
| "nph-" CGI to get unbuffered output. Given that most CGIs are written |
| in a language that by default does buffering (e.g. perl) this |
| shouldn't have a detrimental effect on performance. |
| |
| "nph-" CGIs, which formerly provided a direct socket to the client |
| without any server post-processing, were not fully compatible with |
| HTTP/1.1 or SSL support. As such they would have had to implement |
| the transport details, such as encryption or chunking, in order |
| to work properly in certain situations. Now, the only difference |
| between nph and non-nph scripts is "non-parsed headers". |
| [Dean Gaudet, Sameer Parekh, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) If a BUFF is switched from buffered to unbuffered reading the first |
| bread() will return whatever remained in the buffer prior to the |
| switch. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.3a1 |
| |
| *) Added another Configure helper script: TestLib. It determines |
| if a specified library exists. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) PORT: Allow for use of n32bit libraries under IRIX 6.x |
| [derived from patch from Jeff Hayes <jhayes aw.sgi.com>] |
| PR#721 |
| |
| *) PORT: Some architectures use size_t for various lengths in network |
| functions such as accept(), and getsockname(). The definition |
| NET_SIZE_T is used to control this. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) PORT: Linux: Attempt to detect glibc based systems and include crypt.h |
| and -lcrypt. Test for various db libraries (dbm, ndbm, db) when |
| mod_auth_dbm or mod_auth_db are included. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) PORT: QNX doesn't have initgroups() which support/suexec.c uses. |
| [Igor N Kovalenko <infoh mail.wplus.net>] |
| |
| *) "force-response-1.0" now only applies to requests which are HTTP/1.0 to |
| begin with. "nokeepalive" now works for HTTP/1.1 clients. Added |
| "downgrade-1.0" which causes Apache to pretend it received a 1.0. |
| [Dean Gaudet] related PR#875 |
| |
| *) API: Correct child_init() slot declaration from int to void, to |
| match the init() declaration. Update mod_example to use the new |
| hook. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) added transport handle slot (t_handle) to the BUFF structure |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |

| *) AddModuleInfo directive for mod_info which allows you to annotate |
| the output of mod_info. ["Lou D. Langholtz" <ldl usi.utah.edu>] |

| names to be qualified by redirection. |
| [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer mch.sni.de>] |
| |
| *) Support Proxy Authentication, and don't pass the Proxy-Authorize |
| header to the remote host in the proxy. [Sameer Parekh and |
| Wallace] |
| |
| *) Upgraded mod_rewrite from 3.0.6+ to latest officially available version |
| 3.0.9. This upgrade includes: fixed deadlooping on rewriting to same |
| URLs, fixed rewritelog(), fixed forced response code handling on |
| redirects from within .htaccess files, disabled pipe locking under |
| braindead SunOS 4.1.x, allow env variables to be set even on rules with |
| no substitution, bugfixed situations where HostnameLookups is off, made |
| mod_rewrite more thread-safe for NT port and fixed problem when creating |
| an empty query string via "xxx?". |
| This update also removes the copyright of Ralf S. Engelschall, |
| i.e. now mod_rewrite no longer has a shared copyright. Instead is is |
| exclusively copyrighted by the Apache Group now. This happened because |
| the author now has gifted mod_rewrite exclusively to the Apache Group and |
| no longer maintains an external version. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |

| src/Makefile (notably support/Makefile). [Ken Coar] PR#666, #834 |
| |
| *) IndexOptions SuppressHTMLPreamble now causes the actual HTML of |
| directory indices to start with the contents of the HeaderName file |
| if there is one. If there isn't one, the behaviour is unchanged. |
| [Ken Coar, Roy Fielding, Andrey A. Chernov] |
| |
| *) WIN32: Modules can now be dynamically loaded DLLs using the |
| LoadModule/LoadFile directives. Note that module DLLs must be |
| compiled with the multithreaded DLL version of the runtime library. |
| [Alexei Kosut and Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Automatic indexing removed from mod_dir and placed into mod_autoindex. |
| This allows the admin to completely remove automatic indexing |
| from the server, while still supporting the basic functions of |
| trailing-slash redirects and DirectoryIndex files. Note that if |
| you're carrying over an old Configuration file and you use directory |
| indexing then you'll want to add: |
| |
| Module autoindex_module mod_autoindex.o |
| |
| before mod_dir in your Configuration. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) popendir/pclosedir created to properly protect directory scanning. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#525 |
| |
| *) AliasMatch, ScriptAliasMatch and RedirectMatch directives added, |
| giving regex support to mod_alias. <DirectoryMatch>, <LocationMatch> |
| and <FilesMatch> sections added to succeed <DirectoryMatch ~>, etc... |
| [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) The AccessFileName directive can now take more than one filename. |
| ["Lou D. Langholtz" <ldl usi.utah.edu>] |
| |
| *) The new mod_mime_magic can be used to "magically" determine the type |
| of a file if the extension is unknown. Based on the unix file(1) |
| command. [Ian Kluft <ikluft cisco.com>] |
| |
| *) We now determine and display the time spent processing a |
| request if desired. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) mod_status: PID field of "dead" child slots no longer displays |
| main httpd process's PID. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Makefile.nt added - to build all the bits from the command line: |
| nmake -f Makefile.nt |
| Doesn't yet work properly. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Default text of 404 error is now "Not Found" rather than the |
| potentially misleading "File Not Found". [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) CONFIG: "HostnameLookups" now defaults to off because it is far better |
| for the net if we require people that actually need this data to |
| enable it. [Linus Torvalds] |
| |
| *) directory_walk() is an expensive function, keep a little more state to |
| avoid needless string counting. Add two new functions make_dirstr_parent |
| and make_dirstr_prefix which replace all existing uses of make_dirstr. |
| The new functions are a little less general than make_dirstr, but |
| work more efficiently (less memory, less string counting). |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) EXTRA_LFLAGS was changed to EXTRA_LDFLAGS (and LFLAGS was changed |
| to LDFLAGS) to avoid complications with lex rules in make files. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#372 |
| |
| *) run_method optimized to avoid needless scanning over NULLs in the |
| module list. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Revamp of (unix) scoreboard management code such that it avoids |
| unnecessary traversals of the scoreboard on each hit. This is |
| particularly important for high volume sites with a large |
| HARD_SERVER_LIMIT. Some of the previous operations were O(n^2), |
| and are now O(n). See also SCOREBOARD_MAINTENANCE_INTERVAL in |
| httpd.h. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) In configurations using multiple Listen statements it was possible for |
| busy sockets to starve other sockets of service. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Added hook so standalone_main can be replaced at compile time |
| (define STANDALONE_MAIN) |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Lowest-level read/write functions in buff.c will be replaced with |
| the SFIO library calls sfread/sfwrite if B_SFIO is defined at |
| compile time. The default sfio discipline will behave as apache |
| would without sfio compiled in. |
| [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Enhance UserDir directive (mod_userdir) to accept a list of |
| usernames for the 'disable' keyword, and add 'enable user...' to |
| selectively *en*able userdirs if they're globally disabled. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) If NETSCAPE_DBM_COMPAT is defined in EXTRA_CFLAGS then Apache |
| will work with Netscape dbm files. (dbmmanage will probably not |
| work however.) [Alexander Spohr <aspohr netmatic.com>] PR#444 |
| |
| *) Add a ListenBacklog directive to control the backlog parameter |
| passed to listen(). Also change the default to 511 from 512. |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) API: A new handler response DONE which informs apache that the |
| request has been handled and it can finish off quickly, similar to |
| how it handles errors. [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Turn off chunked encoding after sending terminating chunk/footer |
| so that we can't do it twice by accident. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) mod_expire also issues Cache-Control: max-age headers. |
| [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) API: Added kill_only_once option for free_proc_chain so that it won't |
| aggressively try to kill off specific children. For fastcgi. |
| [Stanley Gambarin <gambarin OpenMarket.com>] |
| |
| *) mod_auth deals with extra ':' delimited fields. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Added IconHeight and IconWidth to mod_dir's IndexOptions directive. |
| When used together, these cause mod_dir to emit HEIGHT and WIDTH |
| attributes in the FancyIndexing IMG tags. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) PORT: Sequent and SONY NEWS-OS support added. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) PORT: Added Windows NT support |
| [Ben Laurie and Ambarish Malpani <ambarish valicert.com>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2.6 |
| |
| *) mod_include when using XBitHack Full would send ETags in addition to |
| sending Last-Modifieds. This is incorrect HTTP/1.1 behaviour. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#1133 |
| |
| *) SECURITY: When a client connects to a particular port/addr, and |
| gives a Host: header ensure that the virtual host requested can |
| actually be reached via that port/addr. [Ed Korthof <ed organic.com>] |
| |
| *) Support virtual hosts with wildcard port and/or multiple ports |
| properly. [Ed Korthof <ed organic.com>] |
| |
| *) Fixed some case-sensitivity issues according to RFC2068. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Set r->allowed properly in mod_asis.c, mod_dir.c, mod_info.c, |
| and mod_include.c. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Variable 'cwd' was being used pointlessly before being set. |
| [Ken Coar] PR#1738 |
| |
| *) SIGURG doesn't exist on all platforms. |
| [Mark Andrew Heinrich <heinrich tinderbox.Stanford.EDU>] |
| |
| *) When an error occurs during a POST, or other operation with a |
| request body, the body has to be read from the net before allowing |
| a keepalive session to continue. [Roy Fielding] PR#1399 |
| |
| *) When an error occurs in fcntl() locking suggest the user look up |
| the docs for LockFile. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) table_set() and table_unset() did not deal correctly with |
| multiple occurrences of the same key. [Stephen Scheck |
| <sscheck infonex.net>, Ben Laurie] PR#1604 |
| |
| *) send_fd_length() did not calculate total_bytes_sent properly in error |
| cases. [Ben Reser <breser regnow.com>] PR#1366 |
| |
| *) r->connection->user was allocated in the wrong pool causing corruption |
| in some cases when used with mod_cern_meta. [Dean Gaudet] PR#1500 |
| |
| *) mod_proxy was sending HTTP/1.1 responses to ftp requests by mistake. |
| Also removed the auto-generated link to www.apache.org that was the |
| source of so many misdirected bug reports. [Roy Fielding, Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Multiple "close" tokens may have been set in the "Connection" |
| header, not an error, but a waste. |
| [<Ronald.Tschalaer psi.ch>] PR#1683 |
| |
| *) "basic" and "digest" auth tokens should be tested case-insensitive. |
| [<Ronald.Tschalaer psi.ch>] PR#1599, PR#1666 |
| |
| *) It appears the "257th byte" bug (see |
| htdocs/manual/misc/known_client_problems.html#257th-byte) can happen |
| at the 256th byte as well. Fixed. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) mod_rewrite would not handle %3f properly in some situations. |
| [Ralf Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Apache could generate improperly chunked HTTP/1.1 responses when |
| the bputc() or rputc() functions were used by modules (such as |
| mod_include). [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) #ifdef wrap a few #defines in httpd.h to make life easier on |
| some ports. [Ralf Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Fix MPE compilation error in mod_usertrack.c. [Mark Bixby] |
| |
| *) Quote CC='$(CC)' to improve recurse make calls. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Avoid B_ERROR redeclaration on sysvr4 systems. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2.5 |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Fix a possible buffer overflow in logresolve. This is |
| only an issue on systems without a MAXDNAME define or where |
| the resolver returns domain names longer than MAXDNAME. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Fix an improper length in an ap_snprintf call in proxy_date_canon(). |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Fix core dump in the ftp proxy when reading incorrectly formatted |
| directory listings. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Fix possible minor buffer overflow in the proxy cache. |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Eliminate possible buffer overflow in cfg_getline, which |
| is used to read various types of files such as htaccess and |
| htpasswd files. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Ensure that the buffer returned by ht_time is always |
| properly null terminated. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: General mod_include cleanup, including fixing several |
| possible buffer overflows and a possible infinite loop. This cleanup |
| was done against 1.3 code and then backported to 1.2, the result |
| is a large difference (due to indentation cleanup in 1.3 code). |
| Users interested in seeing a smaller set of relevant differences |
| should consider comparing against src/modules/standard/mod_include.c |
| from the 1.3b3 release. Non-indentation changes to mod_include |
| between 1.2 and 1.3 were minimal. [Dean Gaudet, Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Numerous changes to mod_imap in a general cleanup |
| including fixing a possible buffer overflow. This cleanup also |
| was done with 1.3 code as a basis, see the previous note |
| about mod_include. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: If a htaccess file can not be read due to bad |
| permissions, deny access to the directory with a HTTP_FORBIDDEN. |
| The previous behavior was to ignore the htaccess file if it could not |
| be read. This change may make some setups with unreadable |
| htaccess files stop working. PR#817 [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: no2slash() was O(n^2) in the length of the input. |
| Make it O(n). This inefficiency could be used to mount a denial |
| of service attack against the Apache server. Thanks to |
| Michal Zalewski <lcamtuf boss.staszic.waw.pl> for reporting |
| this. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) mod_include used uninitialized data for some uses of && and ||. |
| [Brian Slesinsky <bslesins wired.com>] PR#1139 |
| |
| *) mod_imap should decline all non-GET methods. |
| [Jay Bloodworth <jay pathways.sde.state.sc.us>] |
| |
| *) suexec.c wouldn't build without -DLOG_EXEC. [Jason A. Dour] |
| |
| *) mod_userdir was modifying r->finfo in cases where it wasn't setting |
| r->filename. Since those two are meant to be in sync with each other |
| this is a bug. ["Paul B. Henson" <henson intranet.csupomona.edu>] |
| |
| *) mod_include did not properly handle all possible redirects from sub- |
| requests. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Inetd mode (which is buggy) uses timeouts without having setup the |
| jmpbuffer. [Dean Gaudet] PR#1064 |
| |
| *) Work around problem under Linux where a child will start looping |
| reporting a select error over and over. |
| [Rick Franchuk <rickf transpect.net>] PR#1107 |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2.4 |
| |
| *) The ProxyRemote change in 1.2.3 introduced a bug resulting in the proxy |
| always making requests with the full-URI instead of just the URI path. |
| [Marc Slemko, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Add -lm for AIX versions >= 4.2 to allow Apache to link properly |
| on this platform. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2.3 |
| |
| *) The request to a remote proxy was mangled if it was generated as the |
| result of a ProxyPass directive. URL schemes other than http:// were not |
| supported when ProxyRemote was used. PR#260, PR#656, PR#699, PR#713, |
| PR#812 [Lars Eilebrecht] |
| |
| *) Fixed proxy-pass-through feature of mod_rewrite; Added error logging |
| information for case where proxy module is not available. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Force proxy to always respond as HTTP/1.0, which it was failing to |
| do for errors and cached responses. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) PORT: Improved support for ConvexOS 11. [Jeff Venters] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2.2 [not released] |
| |
| *) Fixed another long-standing bug in sub_req_lookup_file where it would |
| happily skip past access checks on subdirectories looked up with relative |
| paths. (It's used by mod_dir, mod_negotiation, and mod_include.) |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Add lockfile name to error message printed out when |
| USE_FLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT is defined. |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Enhanced the chunking and error handling inside the buffer functions. |
| [Dean Gaudet, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) When merging the main server's <Directory> and <Location> sections into |
| a vhost, put the main server's first and the vhost's second. Otherwise |
| the vhost can't override the main server. [Dean Gaudet] PR#717 |
| |
| *) The <Directory> code would merge and re-merge the same section after |
| a match was found, possibly causing problems with some modules. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed an infinite loop in mod_imap for references above the server root. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#748 |
| |
| *) mod_include cleanup showed that handle_else was being used to handle |
| endif. It didn't cause problems, but it was cleaned up too. |
| [Howard Fear] |
| |
| *) Last official synchronization of mod_rewrite with author version (because |
| mod_rewrite is now directly developed by the author at the Apache Group): |
| o added diff between mod_rewrite 3.0.6+ and 3.0.9 |
| minus WIN32/NT stuff, but plus copyright removement. |
| In detail: |
| - workaround for detecting infinite rewriting loops |
| - fixed setting of env vars when "-" is used as subst string |
| - fixed forced response code on redirects (PR#777) |
| - fixed cases where r->args is "" |
| - kludge to disable locking on pipes under braindead SunOS |
| - fix for rewritelog in cases where remote hostname is unknown |
| - fixed totally damaged request_rec walk-back loop |
| o remove static from local data and add static to global ones. |
| o replaced ugly proxy finding stuff by simple |
| find_linked_module("mod_proxy") call. |
| o added missing negation char on rewritelog() |
| o fixed a few comment typos |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Anonymous_LogEmail was logging on each subrequest. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#421, PR#868 |
| |
| *) "force-response-1.0" now only applies to requests which are HTTP/1.0 to |
| begin with. "nokeepalive" now works for HTTP/1.1 clients. Added |
| "downgrade-1.0" which causes Apache to pretend it received a 1.0. |
| Additionally mod_browser now triggers during translate_name to workaround |
| a deficiency in the header_parse phase. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#875 |
| |
| *) get_client_block() returns wrong length if policy is |
| REQUEST_CHUNKED_DECHUNK. |
| [Kenichi Hori <ken d2.bs1.fc.nec.co.jp>] PR#815 |
| |
| *) Properly treat <files> container like other containers in mod_info. |
| [Marc Slemko] PR#848 |
| |
| *) The proxy didn't treat the "Host:" keyword of the host header as case- |
| insensitive. The proxy would corrupt the first line of a response from |
| an HTTP/0.9 server. [Kenichi Hori <ken d2.bs1.fc.nec.co.jp>] PR#813,814 |
| |
| *) mod_include would log some bogus values occasionally. |
| [Skip Montanaro <skip calendar.com>, Marc Slemko] PR#797 |
| |
| *) PORT: The slack fd changes in 1.2.1 introduced a problem with SIGHUP |
| under Solaris 2.x (up through 2.5.1). It has been fixed. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#832 |
| |
| *) API: In HTTP/1.1, whether or not a request message contains a body |
| is independent of the request method and based solely on the presence |
| of a Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding. Therefore, our default |
| handlers need to be prepared to read a body even if they don't know |
| what to do with it; otherwise, the body would be mistaken for the |
| next request on a persistent connection. discard_request_body() |
| has been added to take care of that. [Roy Fielding] PR#378 |
| |
| *) API: Symbol APACHE_RELEASE provides a numeric form of the Apache |
| release version number, such that it always increases along the |
| same lines as our source code branching. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Minor oversight on multiple variants fixed. [Paul Sutton] PR#94 |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2.1 |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Don't serve file system objects unless they are plain files, |
| symlinks, or directories. This prevents local users from using pipes |
| or named sockets to invoke programs for an extremely crude form of |
| CGI. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: HeaderName and ReadmeName were settable in .htaccess and |
| could contain "../" allowing a local user to "publish" any file on |
| the system. No slashes are allowed now. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: It was possible to violate the symlink Options using mod_dir |
| (headers, readmes, titles), mod_negotiation (type maps), or |
| mod_cern_meta (meta files). [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) SECURITY: Apache will refuse to run as "User root" unless |
| BIG_SECURITY_HOLE is defined at compile time. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) CONFIG: If a symlink pointed to a directory then it would be disallowed |
| if it contained a .htaccess disallowing symlinks. This is contrary |
| to the rule that symlink permissions are tested with the symlink |
| options of the parent directory. [Dean Gaudet] PR#353 |
| |
| *) CONFIG: The LockFile directive can be used to place the serializing |
| lockfile in any location. It previously defaulted to /usr/tmp/htlock. |
| [Somehow it took four of us: Randy Terbush, Jim Jagielski, Dean Gaudet, |
| Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Request processing now retains state of whether or not the request |
| body has been read, so that internal redirects and subrequests will |
| not try to read it twice (and block). [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Add a placeholder in modules/Makefile to avoid errors with certain |
| makes. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) QUERY_STRING was unescaped in mod_include, it shouldn't be. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#644 |
| |
| *) mod_include was not properly changing the current directory. |
| [Marc Slemko] PR#742 |
| |
| *) Attempt to work around problems with third party libraries that do not |
| handle high numbered descriptors (examples include bind, and |
| solaris libc). On all systems apache attempts to keep all permanent |
| descriptors above 15 (called the low slack line). Solaris users |
| can also benefit from adding -DHIGH_SLACK_LINE=256 to EXTRA_CFLAGS |
| which keeps all non-FILE * descriptors above 255. On all systems |
| this should make supporting large numbers of vhosts with many open |
| log files more feasible. If this causes trouble please report it, |
| you can disable this workaround by adding -DNO_SLACK to EXTRA_CFLAGS. |
| [Dean Gaudet] various PRs |
| |
| *) Related to the last entry, network sockets are now opened before |
| log files are opened. The only known case where this can cause |
| problems is under Solaris with many virtualhosts and many Listen |
| directives. But using -DHIGH_SLACK_LINE=256 described above will |
| work around this problem. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) USE_FLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT is now default for FreeBSD, A/UX, and |
| SunOS 4. |
| |
| *) Improved unix error response logging. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Update mod_rewrite from 3.0.5 to 3.0.6. New ruleflag |
| QSA=query_string_append. Also fixed a nasty bug in per-dir context: |
| when a URL http://... was used in conjunction with a special |
| redirect flag, e.g. R=permanent, the permanent status was lost. |

| |
| *) Added undocumented perl SSI mechanism for -DUSE_PERL_SSI and mod_perl. |
| [Doug MacEachern, Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Proxy needs to use hard_timeout instead of soft_timeout when it is |
| reading from one buffer and writing to another, at least until it has |
| a custom timeout handler. [Roy Fielding and Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) Fixed problem on IRIX with servers hanging in IdentityCheck, |

| or if we received a request-line that was too long to process (414). |
| [Ed Korthof and Roy Fielding] PR#601 |
| |
| *) Virtual hosts with the same ServerName, but on different ports, were |
| not being selected properly. [Ed Korthof] |
| |
| *) Added code to return the requested IP address from proxy_host2addr() |
| if gethostbyaddr() fails due to reverse DNS lookup problems. Original |
| change submitted by Jozsef Hollosi <hollosi sbcm.com>. |
| [Chuck Murcko] PR#614 |
| |
| *) If multiple requests on a single connection are used to retrieve |

| causing most virtual hosts to be ignored. |
| [Paul Sutton and Martin Mares] PR#610 |
| |
| *) The OS/2 handling of process group was broken by a porting patch for |
| MPE, so restored prior code for OS/2. [Roy Fielding and Garey Smiley] |
| |
| *) Inherit virtual server port from main server if none (or "*") is |
| given for VirtualHost. [Dean Gaudet] PR#576 |
| |
| *) If the lookup for a DirectoryIndex name with content negotiation |
| has found matching variants, but none are acceptable, return the |

| [Petr Lampa and Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) If a soft_timeout occurs after keepalive is set, then the main child |
| loop would try to read another request even though the connection |
| has been aborted. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Configure changes: Allow for whitespace at the start of a |
| Module declaration. Also, be more understanding about the |
| CC=/OPTIM= format in Configuration. Finally, fix compiler |
| flags if using HP-UX's cc compiler. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Subrequests and internal redirects now inherit the_request from the |
| original request-line. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Test for error conditions before creating output header fields, since |
| we don't want the error message to include those fields. Likewise, |
| reset the content_language(s) and content_encoding of the response |
| before generating or redirecting to an error message, since the new |
| message will have its own Content-* definitions. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Restored the semantics of headers_out (headers sent only with 200..299 |
| and 304 responses) and err_headers_out (headers sent with all responses). |
| Avoid the overhead of copying tables if err_headers_out is empty |
| (the usual case). [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fixed a couple places where a check for the default Content-Type was |
| not properly checking both the value configured by the DefaultType |
| directive and the DEFAULT_TYPE symbol in httpd.h. Changed the value |
| of DEFAULT_TYPE to match the documented default (text/plain). |

| *) The method for determining PATH_INFO has been restored to the pre-1.2b |
| (and NCSA httpd) definition wherein it was the extra path info beyond |
| the CGI script filename. The environment variable FILEPATH_INFO has |
| been removed, and instead we supply the original REQUEST_URI to any |
| script that wants to be Apache-specific and needs the real URI path. |
| This solves a problem with existing scripts that use extra path info |
| in the ScriptAlias directive to pass options to the CGI script. |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) The _default_ change in 1.2b10 will change the behaviour on configs |
| that use multiple Listen statements for listening on multiple ports. |
| But that change is necessary to make _default_ consistent with other |
| forms of <VirtualHost>. It requires such configs to be modified |
| to use <VirtualHost _default_:*>. The documentation has been |
| updated. [Dean Gaudet] PR#530 |
| |
| *) If an ErrorDocument CGI script is used to respond to an error |
| generated by another CGI script which has already read the message |
| body of the request, the server would block trying to read the |
| message body again. [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) signal() replacement conflicted with a define on QNX (and potentially |
| other platforms). Fixed. [Ben Laurie] PR#512 |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b10 |
| |
| *) Allow HTTPD_ROOT, SERVER_CONFIG_FILE, DEFAULT_PATH, and SHELL_PATH |
| to be configured via -D in Configuration. [Dean Gaudet] PR#449 |
| |
| *) <VirtualHost _default_:portnum> didn't work properly. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Added prototype for mktemp() for SUNOS4 [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) In mod_proxy.c, check return values for proxy_host2addr() when reading |
| config, in case the hostent struct returned is trash. |
| [Chuck Murcko] PR #491 |
| |
| *) Fixed the fix in 1.2b9 for parsing URL query info into args for CGI |
| scripts. [Dean Gaudet, Roy Fielding, Marc Slemko] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b9 [never announced] |
| |
| *) Reset the MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER to account for the unsigned port |
| changes and in anticipation of 1.2 final release. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fix problem with scripts not receiving a SIGPIPE when client drops |
| the connection (e.g., when user presses Stop). Apache will now stop |
| trying to send a message body immediately after an error from write. |
| [Roy Fielding and Nathan Kurz] PR#335 |
| |
| *) Rearrange Configuration.tmpl so that mod_rewrite has higher priority |
| than mod_alias, and mod_alias has higher priority than mod_proxy; |
| rearranged other modules to enhance understanding of their purpose |
| and relative order (and maybe even reduce some overhead). |
| [Roy Fielding and Sameer Parekh] |
| |
| *) Fix graceful restart. Eliminate many signal-related race |
| conditions in both forms of restart, and in SIGTERM. See |
| htdocs/manual/stopping.html for details on stopping and |
| restarting the parent. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fix memory leaks in mod_rewrite, mod_browser, mod_include. Tune |
| memory allocator to avoid a behaviour that required extra blocks to |
| be allocated. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Allow suexec to access files relative to current directory but not |
| above. (Excluding leading / or any .. directory.) [Ken Coar] |
| PR#269, 319, 395 |
| |
| *) Fix suexec segfault when group doesn't exist. [Gregory Neil Shapiro] |
| PR#367, 368, 354, 453 |
| |
| *) Fix the above fix: if suexec is enabled, avoid destroying r->url |
| while obtaining the /~user and save the username in a separate data |
| area so that it won't be overwritten by the call to getgrgid(), and |
| fix some misuse of the pool string allocation functions. Also fixes |
| a general problem with parsing URL query info into args for CGI scripts. |
| [Roy Fielding] PR#339, 367, 354, 453 |
| |
| *) Fix IRIX warning about bzero undefined. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Fix problem with <Directory proxy:...>. [Martin Kraemer] PR#271 |
| |
| *) Corrected spelling of "authoritative". AuthDBAuthoratative became |
| AuthDBAuthoritative. [Marc Slemko] PR#420 |
| |
| *) MaxClients should be at least 1. [Lars Eilebrecht] PR#375 |
| |
| *) The default handler now logs invalid methods or URIs (i.e. PUT on an |
| object that can't be PUT, or FOOBAR for some method FOOBAR that |
| apache doesn't know about at all). Log 404s that occur in mod_include. |
| [Paul Sutton, John Van Essen] |
| |
| *) If a soft timeout (or lingerout) occurs while trying to flush a |
| buffer or write inside buff.c or fread'ing from a CGI's output, |
| then the timeout would be ignored. [Roy Fielding] PR#373 |
| |
| *) Work around a bug in Netscape Navigator versions 2.x, 3.x and 4.0b2's |
| parsing of headers. If the terminating empty-line CRLF occurs starting |
| at the 256th or 257th byte of output, then Navigator will think a normal |
| image is invalid. We are guessing that this is because their initial |
| read of a new request uses a 256 byte buffer. We check the bytes written |
| so far and, if we are about to tickle the bug, we instead insert a |
| padding header of eminent bogosity. [Roy Fielding and Dean Gaudet] PR#232 |
| |
| *) Fixed SIGSEGV problem when a DirectoryIndex file is also the source |
| of an external redirection. [Roy Fielding and Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Configure would create a broken Makefile if the configuration file |
| contained a commented-out Rule. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Promote per_dir_config and subprocess_env from the subrequest to the |
| main request in mod_negotiation. In particular this fixes a bug |
| where <Files> sections wouldn't properly apply to negotiated content. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fix a potential deadlock in mod_cgi script_err handling. |
| [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) rotatelogs zero-pads the logfile names to improve alphabetic sorting. |
| [Mitchell Blank Jr] |
| |
| *) Updated mod_rewrite to 3.0.4: Fixes HTTP redirects from within |
| .htaccess files because the RewriteBase was not replaced correctly. |
| Updated mod_rewrite to 3.0.5: Fixes problem with rewriting inside |
| <Directory> sections missing a trailing /. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Clean up Linux settings in conf.h by detecting 2.x versus 1.x. For |
| 1.x the settings are those of pre-1.2b8. For 2.x we include |
| USE_SHMGET_SCOREBOARD (scoreboard in shared memory rather than file) and |
| HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H (enable the RLimit commands). |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR#336, PR#340 |
| |
| *) Redirect did not preserve ?query_strings when present in the client's |
| request. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Configure was finding non-modules on EXTRA_LIBS. [Frank Cringle] PR#380 |
| |
| *) Use /bin/sh5 on ULTRIX. [P. Alejandro Lopez-Valencia] PR#369 |
| |
| *) Add UnixWare compile/install instructions. [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Add mod_example (illustration of API techniques). [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Add macro for memmove to conf.h for SUNOS4. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Improve handling of directories when filenames have spaces in them. |
| [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) For hosts with multiple IP addresses, try all additional addresses if |
| necessary to get a connect. Fail only if hostent address list is |
| exhausted. [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) More signed/unsigned port fixes. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) HARD_SERVER_LIMIT can be defined in the Configuration file now. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b8 |
| |
| *) suexec.c doesn't close the log file, allowing CGIs to continue writing |
| to it. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) The addition of <Location> and <File> directives made the |
| sub_req_lookup_simple() function bogus, so we now handle |
| the special cases directly. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) We now try to log where the server is dumping core when a fatal |
| signal is received. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Improved lingering_close by adding a special timeout, removing the |
| spurious log messages, removing the nonblocking settings (they |
| are not needed with the better timeout), and adding commentary |
| about the NO_LINGCLOSE and USE_SO_LINGER issues. NO_LINGCLOSE is |
| now the default for SunOS4, UnixWare, NeXT, and IRIX. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Send error messages about setsockopt failures to the server error |
| log instead of stderr. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fix loopholes in proxy cache expiry vis a vis alarms. [Brian Moore] |
| |
| *) Stopgap solution for CGI 3-second delay with server-side includes: if |
| processing a subrequest, allocate memory from r->main->pool instead |
| of r->pool so that we can avoid waiting for free_proc_chain to cleanup |
| in the middle of an SSI request. [Dean Gaudet] PR #122 |
| |
| *) Fixed status of response when POST is received for a nonexistent URL |
| (was sending 405, now 404) and when any method is sent with a |
| full-URI that doesn't match the server and the server is not acting |
| as a proxy (was sending 501, now 403). [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Host port changed to unsigned short. [Ken Coar] PR #276 |
| |
| *) Fix typo in command definition of AuthAuthoritative. [Ken Coar] PR #246 |
| |
| *) Defined USE_SHMGET_SCOREBOARD for shared memory on Linux. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Report extra info from errno with many errors that cause httpd to exit. |
| spawn_child, popenf, and pclosef now have valid errno returns in the |
| event of an error. Correct problems where errno was stomped on |
| before being reported. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) In the proxy, if the cache filesystem was full, garbage_coll() was |
| never called, and thus the filesystem would remain full indefinitely. |
| We now also remove incomplete cache files left if the origin server |
| didn't send a Content-Length header and either the client has aborted |
| transfer or bwrite() to client has failed. [Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) Fixed the handling of module and script-added header fields. |
| Improved the interface for sending header fields and reduced |
| the duplication of code between sending okay responses and errors. |
| We now always send both headers_out and err_headers_out, and |
| ensure that the server-reserved fields are not being overridden, |
| while not overriding those that are not reserved. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Moved transparent content negotiation fields to err_headers_out |
| to reflect above changes. [Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) Fixed the determination of whether or not we should make the |
| connection persistent for all of the cases where some other part |
| of the server has already indicated that we should not. Also |
| improved the ordering of the test so that chunked encoding will |
| be set whenever it is desired instead of only when KeepAlive |
| is enabled. Added persistent connection capability for most error |
| responses (those that do not indicate a bad input stream) when |
| accessed by an HTTP/1.1 client. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Added missing timeouts for sending header fields, error responses, |
| and the last chunk of chunked encoding, each of which could have |
| resulted in a process being stuck in write forever. Using soft_timeout |
| requires that the sender check for an aborted connection rather than |
| continuing after an EINTR. Timeouts that used to be initiated before |
| send_http_header (and never killed) are now initiated only within or |
| around the routines that actually do the sending, and not allowed to |
| propagate above the caller. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) mod_auth_anon required an @ or a . in the email address, not both. |
| [Dirk vanGulik] |
| |
| *) per_dir_defaults weren't set correctly until directory_walk for |
| name-based vhosts. This fixes an obscure bug with the wrong config |
| info being used for vhosts that share the same ip as the server. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Improved generation of modules/Makefile to be more generic for |
| new module directories. [Ken Coar, Chuck Murcko, Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Generate makefile dependency for Configuration based on the actual |
| name given when running the Configure process. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed problem with vhost error log not being set prior to |
| initializing virtual hosts. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed infinite loop when a trailing slash is included after a type map |
| file URL (extra path info). [Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) Fixed server status updating of per-connection counters. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Add documentation for DNS issues (reliability and security), and try |
| to explain the virtual host matching process. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Try to continue gracefully by disabling the vhost if a DNS lookup |
| fails while parsing the configuration file. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Improved calls to setsockopt. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Negotiation changes: Don't output empty content-type in variant list; |
| Output charset in variant list; Return sooner from handle_multi() if |
| no variants found; Add handling of '*' wildcard in Accept-Charset. |
| [Petr Lampa and Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Fixed overlaying of request/sub-request notes and headers in |
| mod_negotiation. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) If two variants' charset quality are equal and one is the default |
| charset (iso-8859-1), then prefer the variant that was specifically |
| listed in Accept-Charset instead of the default. [Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) Memory allocation problem in push_array() -- it would corrupt memory |
| when nalloc==0. [Kai Risku <krisku tf.hut.fi> and Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) invoke_handler() doesn't handle mime arguments in content-type |
| [Petr Lampa] PR#160 |
| |
| *) Reduced IdentityCheck timeout to 30 seconds, as per RFC 1413 minimum. |
| [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Fixed problem with ErrorDocument not working for virtual hosts |
| due to one of the performance changes in 1.2b7. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Log an error message if we get a request header that is too long, |
| since it may indicate a buffer overflow attack. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Made is_url() allow "[-.+a-zA-Z0-9]+:" as a valid scheme and |
| not reject URLs without a double-slash, as per RFC2068 section 3.2. |
| [Ken Coar] PR #146, #187 |
| |
| *) Added table entry placeholder for new header_parser callback |
| in all of the distributed modules. [Ken Coar] PR #191 |
| |
| *) Allow for cgi files without the .EXE extension on them under OS/2. |
| [Garey Smiley] PR #59 |
| |
| *) Fixed error message when resource is not found and URL contains |
| path info. [Petr Lampa and Dean Gaudet] PR #40 |
| |
| *) Fixed user and server confusion over what should be a virtual host |
| and what is the main server, resulting in access to something |
| other than the name defined in the virtualhost directive (but |
| with the same IP address) failing. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Updated mod_rewrite to version 3.0.2, which: fixes compile error on |
| AIX; improves the redirection stuff to enable the users to generally |
| redirect to http, https, gopher and ftp; added TIME variable for |
| RewriteCond which expands to YYYYMMDDHHMMSS strings and added the |
| special patterns >STRING, <STRING and =STRING to RewriteCond, which |
| can be used in conjunction with %{TIME} or other variables to create |
| time-dependent rewriting rules. [Ralf S. Engelschall] |
| |
| *) bpushfd() no longer notes cleanups for the file descriptors it is handed. |
| Module authors may need to adjust their code for proper cleanup to take |
| place (that is, call note_cleanups_for_fd()). This change fixes problems |
| with file descriptors being erroneously closed when the proxy module was |
| in use. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Fix bug in suexec reintroduced by changes in 1.2b7 which allows |
| initgroups() to hose the group information needed for later |
| comparisons. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Remove unnecessary call to va_end() in create_argv() which |
| caused a SEGV on some systems. |
| |
| *) Use proper MAXHOSTNAMELEN symbol for limiting length of server name. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Clear memory allocated for listeners. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Improved handling of IP address as a virtualhost address and |
| introduced "_default_" as a synonym for the default vhost config. |
| [Dean Gaudet] PR #212 |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b7 |
| |
| *) Port to UXP/DS(V20) [Toshiaki Nomura <nom yk.fujitsu.co.jp>] |
| |
| *) unset Content-Length if chunked (RFC-2068) [Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) mod_negotiation fixes [Petr Lampa] PR#157, PR#158, PR#159 |
| - replace protocol response numbers with symbols |
| - save variant-list into main request notes |
| - free allocated memory from subrequests |
| - merge notes, headers_out and err_headers_out |
| |
| *) changed status check mask in proxy_http.c from "HTTP/#.# ### *" to |
| "HTTP/#.# ###*" to be more lenient about what we accept. |
| [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) more proxy FTP bug fixes: |
| - Changed send_dir() to remove user/passwd from displayed URL. |
| - Changed login error messages to be more descriptive. |
| - remove setting of SO_DEBUG socket option |
| - Make ftp_getrc() more lenient about multiline responses, |
| specifically, 230 responses which don't have continuation 230- |
| on each line). These seem to be all NT FTP servers, and while |
| perhaps questionable, they appear to be legal by RFC 959. |
| - Add missing kill_timeout() after transfer to user completes. |
| [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Fixed problem where a busy server could hang when restarting |
| after being sent a SIGHUP due to child processes not exiting. |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Modify mod_include escaping so a '\' only signifies an escaped |
| character if the next character is one that needs |
| escaping. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Eliminated possible infinite loop in mod_imap when relative URLs are |
| used with a 'base' directive that does not have a '/' in it. |
| [Marc Slemko, reported by Onno Witvliet <onno tc.hsa.nl>] |
| |
| *) Reduced the default timeout from 1200 seconds to 300, and the |
| one in the sample configfile from 400 to 300. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Stop vbprintf from crashing if given a NULL string pointer; |
| print (null) instead. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Don't disable Nagle algorithm if system doesn't have TCP_NODELAY. |
| [Marc Slemko and Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fixed problem with mod_cgi-generated internal redirects trying to |
| read the request message-body twice. [Archie Cobbs and Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Reduced timeout on lingering close, removed possibility of a blocked |
| read causing the child to hang, and stopped logging of errors if |
| the socket is not connected (reset by client). [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Rearranged main child loop to remove duplication of code in |
| select/accept and keep-alive requests, fixed several bugs regarding |
| checking scoreboard_image for exit indication and failure to |
| account for all success conditions and trap all error conditions, |
| prevented multiple flushes before closing the socket; close the entire |
| socket buffer instead of just one descriptor, prevent logging of |
| EPROTO and ECONNABORTED on platforms where supported, and generally |
| improved readability. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Extensive performance improvements. Cleaned up inefficient use of |
| auto initializers, multiple is_matchexp calls on a static string, |
| and excessive merging of response_code_strings. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Added double-buffering to mod_include to improve performance on |
| server-side includes. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Several fixes for suexec wrapper. [Randy Terbush] |
| - Make wrapper work for files on NFS filesystem. |
| - Fix portability problem of MAXPATHLEN. |
| - Fix array overrun problem in clean_env(). |
| - Fix allocation of PATH environment variable |
| |
| *) Removed extraneous blank line is description of mod_status chars. |
| [Kurt Kohler] |
| |
| *) Logging of errors from the call_exec routine simply went nowhere, |
| since the logfile fd has been closed, so now we send them to stderr. |
| [Harald T. Alvestrand] |
| |
| *) Fixed core dump when DocumentRoot is a CGI. |
| [Ben Laurie, reported by <geddis tesserae.com>] |
| |
| *) Fixed potential file descriptor leak in mod_asis; updated it and |
| http_core to use pfopen/pfclose instead of fopen/fclose. |
| [Randy Terbush and Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fixed handling of unsigned ints in ap_snprintf() on some chips such |
| as the DEC Alpha which is 64-bit but uses 32-bit ints. |
| [Dean Gaudet and Ken Coar] |
| |
| *) Return a 302 response code to the client when sending a redirect |
| due to a missing trailing '/' on a directory instead of a 301; now |
| it is cacheable. [Markus Gyger] |
| |
| *) Fix condition where, if a bad directive occurs in .htaccess, and |
| sub_request() goes first to this directory, then log_reason() will |
| SIGSEGV because it doesn't have initialized r->per_dir_config. |
| [PR#162 from Petr Lampa, fix by Marc Slemko and Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fix handling of lang_index in is_variant_better(). This was |
| causing problems which resulted in the server sending the |
| wrong language document in some cases. [Petr Lampa] |
| |
| *) Remove free() from clean_env() in suexec wrapper. This was nuking |
| the clean environment on some systems. |
| |
| *) Tweak byteserving code (e.g. serving PDF files) to work around |
| bugs in Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer. |
| Emit Content-Length header when sending multipart/byteranges. |
| [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Port to HI-UX/WE2. [Nick Maclaren] |
| |
| *) Port to HP MPE operating system for HP 3000 machines |
| [Mark Bixby <markb cccd.edu>] |
| |
| *) Fixed bug which caused a segmentation fault if only one argument |
| given to RLimit* directives. [Ed Korthof] |
| |
| *) Continue persistent connection after 204 or 304 response. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Improved buffered output to the client by delaying the flush decision |
| until the BUFF code is actually about to read the next request. |
| This fixes a problem introduced in 1.2b5 with clients that send |
| an extra CRLF after a POST request. Also improved chunked output |
| performance by combining writes using writev() and removing as |
| many bflush() calls as possible. NOTE: Platforms without writev() |
| must add -DNO_WRITEV to the compiler CFLAGS, either in Configuration |
| or Configure, unless we have already done so. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed mod_rewrite bug which truncated the rewritten URL [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Fixed mod_info output corruption bug introduced by buffer overflow |
| fixes. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed http_protocol to correctly output all HTTP/1.1 headers, including |
| for the special case of a 304 response. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Improved handling of TRACE method by bypassing normal method handling |
| and header parsing routines; fixed Allow response to always allow TRACE. |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fixed compiler warnings in the regex library. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Cleaned-up some of the generated HTML. [Ken Coar] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b6 |
| |
| *) Allow whitespace in imagemap mapfile coordinates. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Fix typo introduced in fix for potential infinite loop around |
| accept() in child_main(). This change caused the rev to 1.2b6. |
| 1.2b5 was never a public beta. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b5 |
| |
| *) Change KeepAlive semantics (On|Off instead of a number), add |
| MaxKeepAliveRequests directive. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Various NeXT compilation patches, as well as a change in |
| regex/regcomp.c since that file also used a NEXT define. |
| [Andreas Koenig] |
| |
| *) Allow * to terminate the end of a directory match in mod_dir. |
| Allows /~* to match for both /~joe and /~joe/. [David Bronder] |
| |
| *) Don't call can_exec() if suexec_enabled. Calling this requires |
| scripts executed by the suexec wrapper to be world executable, which |
| defeats one of the advantages of running the wrapper. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Portability Fix: IRIX complained with 'make clean' about *pure* (removed) |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Migration from sprintf() to snprintf() to avoid buffer |
| overflows. [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Provide portable snprintf() implementation (ap_snprintf) |
| as well as *cvt family. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Portability Fix: NeXT lacks unistd.h so we wrap it's inclusion |
| [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Remove mod_fastcgi.c from the distribution. This module appears |
| to be maintained more through the Open Market channels and should |
| continue to be easily available at http://www.fastcgi.com/ |
| |
| *) Fixed bug in modules/Makefile that wouldn't allow building in more |
| than one subdirectory (or cleaning, either). [Jeremy Laidman] |
| |
| *) mod_info assumed that the config files were relative to ServerRoot. |
| [Ken the Rodent] |
| |
| *) CGI scripts called as an error document resulting from failed |
| CGI execution would hang waiting for POST'ed data. [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Log reason when mod_dir returns access HTTP_FORBIDDEN |
| [Ken the Rodent] |
| |
| *) Properly check errno to prevent display of a directory index |
| when server receives a long enough URL to confuse stat(). |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Several security enhancements to suexec wrapper. It is _highly_ |
| recommended that previously installed versions of the wrapper |
| be replaced with this version. [Randy Terbush, Jason Dour] |
| |
| - ~user execution now properly restricted to ~user's home |
| directory and below. |
| - execution restricted to UID/GID > 100 |
| - restrict passed environment to known variables |
| - call setgid() before initgroups() (portability fix) |
| - remove use of setenv() (portability fix) |
| |
| *) Add HTTP/1.0 response forcing. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Add access control via environment variables. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Add rflush() function. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) remove duplicate pcalloc() call in new_connection(). |
| |
| *) Fix incorrect comparison which could allow number of children = |
| MaxClients + 1 if less than HARD_SERVER_LIMIT. Also fix potential |
| problem if StartServers > HARD_SERVER_LIMIT. [Ed Korthof] |
| |
| *) Updated support for OSes (MachTen, ULTRIX, Paragon, ISC, OpenBSD |
| AIX PS/2, CONVEXOS. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Replace instances of inet_ntoa() with inet_addr() for ProxyBlock. |
| It's more portable. [Martin Kraemer] |
| |
| *) Replace references to make in Makefile.tmpl with $(MAKE). |
| [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Add ProxyBlock directive w/IP address caching. Add IP address |
| caching to NoCache directive as well. ProxyBlock works with all |
| handlers; NoCache now also works with FTP for anonymous logins. |
| Still more code cleanup. [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Add "header parse" API hook [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Fix byte ordering problems for REMOTE_PORT [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) suEXEC wrapper was freeing memory that had not been malloc'ed. |
| |
| *) Correctly allow access and auth directives in <Files> sections in |
| server config files. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Fix bug with ServerPath that could cause certain files to be not |
| found by the server. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Fix handling of ErrorDocument so that it doesn't remove a trailing |
| double-quote from text and so that it properly checks for unsupported |
| status codes using the new index_of_response interface. [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Multiple fixes to the lingering_close code in order to avoid being |
| interrupted by a stray timeout, to avoid lingering on a connection |
| that has already been aborted or never really existed, to ensure that |
| we stop lingering as soon as any error condition is received, and to |
| prevent being stuck indefinitely if the read blocks. Also improves |
| reporting of error conditions. [Marc Slemko and Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Fixed initialization of parameter structure for sigaction. |
| [<mgyger itr.ch>, Adrian Filipi-Martin] |
| |
| *) Fixed reinitializing the parameters before each call to accept and |
| select, and removed potential for infinite loop in accept. |
| [Roy Fielding, after useful PR from <adrian virginia.edu>] |
| |
| *) Fixed condition where, if a child fails to fork, the scoreboard would |
| continue to say SERVER_STARTING forever. Eventually, the main process |
| would refuse to start new children because count_idle_servers() will |
| count those SERVER_STARTING entries and will always report that there |
| are enough idle servers. [Phillip Vandry] |
| |
| *) Fixed bug in bcwrite regarding failure to account for partial writes. |
| Avoided calling bflush() when the client is pipelining requests. |
| Removed unnecessary flushes from http_protocol. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Added description of "." mode in server-status [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b4 |
| |
| *) Fix possible race condition in accept_mutex_init() that |
| could leave a small security hole open allowing files to be |
| overwritten in cases where the server UID has write permissions. |
| [Marc Slemko] |
| |
| *) Fix awk compatibilty problem in Configure. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Fix portablity problem in util_script where ARG_MAX may not be |
| defined for some systems. |
| |
| *) Add changes to allow compilation on Machten 4.0.3 for PowerPC. |
| [Randal Schwartz] |
| |
| *) OS/2 changes to support an MMAP style scoreboard file and UNIX |
| style magic #! token for better script portability. [Garey Smiley] |
| |
| *) Fix bug in suexec wrapper introduced in b3 that would cause failed |
| execution for ~userdir CGI. [Jason Dour] |
| |
| *) Fix initgroups() business in suexec wrapper. [Jason Dour] |
| |
| *) Fix month off by one in suexec wrapper logging. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b3: |
| |
| *) Fix error in mod_cgi which could cause resources not to be properly |
| freed, or worse. [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Fix find_string() NULL pointer dereference. [Howard Fear] |
| |
| *) Add set_flag_slot() at the request of Dirk and others. |
| [Dirk vanGulik] |
| |
| *) Sync mod_rewrite with patch level 10. [Ralf Engelschall] |
| |
| *) Add changes to improve the error message given for invalid |
| ServerName parameters. [Dirk vanGulik] |
| |
| *) Add "Authoritative" directive for Auth modules that don't |
| currently have it. This gives admin control to assign authoritative |
| control to an authentication scheme and allow "fall through" for |
| those authentication modules that aren't "Authoritative" thereby |
| allowing multiple authentication mechanisms to be chained. |
| [Dirk vanGulik] |
| |
| *) Remove requirement for ResourceConfig/AccessConfig if not using |
| the three config file layout. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Add PASV mode to mod_proxy FTP handler. [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Changes to suexec wrapper to fix the following problems: |
| 1. symlinked homedirs will kill ~userdirs. |
| 2. initgroups() on Linux 2.0.x clobbers gr->grid. |
| 3. CGI command lines paramters problems |
| 4. pw-pwdir for "docroot check" still the httpd user's pw record. |
| [Randy Terbush, Jason Dour] |
| |
| *) Change create_argv() to accept variable arguments. This fixes |
| a problem where arguments were not getting passed to the CGI via |
| argv[] when the suexec wrapper was active. [Randy Terbush, Jake Buchholz] |
| |
| *) Collapse multiple slashes in path URLs to properly apply |
| handlers defined by <Location>. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Define a sane set of DEFAULT_USER and DEFAULT_GROUP values for AIX. |
| |
| *) Improve the accuracy of request duration timings by setting |
| r->request_time in read_request_line() instead of read_request(). |
| [Dean Gaudet] |
| |
| *) Reset timeout while reading via get_client_block() in mod_cgi.c |
| Fixes problem with timed out transfers of large files. [Rasmus Lerdorf] |
| |
| *) Add the ability to pass different Makefile.tmpl files to Configure |
| using the -make flag. [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Fix coredump triggered when sending a SIGHUP to the server caused |
| by an assertion failure, in turn caused by an uninitialised field in a |
| listen_rec. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Add FILEPATH_INFO variable to CGI environment, which is equal to |
| PATH_INFO from previous versions of Apache (in certain situations, |
| Apache 1.2's PATH_INFO will be different than 1.1's). [Alexei Kosut] |
| [later removed in 1.2b11] |
| |
| *) Add rwrite() function to API to allow for sending strings of |
| arbitrary length. [Doug MacEachern] |
| |
| *) Remove rlim_t typedef for NetBSD. Do older versions need this? |
| |
| *) Defined rlim_t and WANTHSREGEX=yes and fixed waitpid() substitute for |
| NeXT. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Removed recent modification to promote the status code on internal |
| redirects, since the correct fix was to change the default log format |
| in mod_log_config so that it outputs the original status. [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b2: |
| |
| *) Update set_signals() to use sigaction() for setting handlers. |
| This appears to fix a re-entrant problem in the seg_fault() |
| bus_error() handlers. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Changes to allow mod_status compile for OS/2 [Garey Smiley] |
| |
| *) changes for DEC AXP running OSF/1 v3.0. [Marc Evans] |
| |
| *) proxy_http.c bugfixes: [Chuck Murcko] |
| 1) fixes possible NULL pointer reference w/NoCache |
| 2) fixes NoCache behavior when using ProxyRemote (ProxyRemote |
| host would cache nothing if it was in the local domain, |
| and the local domain was in the NoCache list) |
| 3) Adds Host: header when not available |
| 4) Some code cleanup and clarification |
| |
| *) mod_include.c bugfixes: |
| 1) Fixed an ommission that caused include variables to not |
| be parsed in config errmsg directives [Howard Fear] |
| 2) Remove HAVE_POSIX_REGEX cruft [Alexei Kosut] |
| 3) Patch to fix compiler warnings [<perrot lal.in2p3.fr>] |
| 4) Allow backslash-escaping to all quoted text |
| [Ben Yoshino <ben wiliki.eng.hawaii.edu>] |
| 5) Pass variable to command line if not set in XSSI's env |
| [Howard Fear] |
| |
| *) Fix infinite loop when processing Content-language lines in |
| type-map files. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Closed file-globbing hole in test-cgi script. [Brian Behlendorf] |
| |
| *) Fixed problem in set_[user|group] that prevented CGI execution |
| for non-virtualhosts when suEXEC was enabled. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Added PORTING information file. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Added definitions for S_IWGRP and S_IWOTH to conf.h [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Changed default group to "nogroup" instead of "nobody" [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Fixed define typo of FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT where |
| USE_FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT was intended. |
| |
| *) Fixed additional uses of 0xffffffff where INADDR_NONE was intended, |
| which caused problems of systems where socket s_addr is >32bits. |
| |
| *) Added comment to explain (r->chunked = 1) side-effect in |
| http_protocol.c [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Replaced use of index() in mod_expires.c with more appropriate |
| and portable isdigit() test. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Updated Configure for ... |
| OS/2 (DEF_WANTHSREGEX=yes, other code changes) |
| *-dg-dgux* (bad pattern match) |
| QNX (DEF_WANTHSREGEX=yes) |
| *-sunos4* (DEF_WANTHSREGEX=yes, -DUSEBCOPY) |
| *-ultrix (new) |
| *-unixware211 (new) |
| and added some user diagnostic info. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) In helpers/CutRule, replaced "cut" invocation with "awk" invocation |
| for better portability. [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Updated helpers/GuessOS for ... |
| SCO 5 (recognize minor releases) |
| SCO UnixWare (braindamaged uname, whatever-whatever-unixware2) |
| SCO UnixWare 2.1.1 (requires a separate set of #defines in conf.h) |
| IRIX64 (-sgi-irix64) |
| ULTRIX (-unknown-ultrix) |
| SINIX (-whatever-sysv4) |
| NCR Unix (-ncr-sysv4) |
| and fixed something in helpers/PrintPath [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.2b1 |
| |
| *) Not listed. See <http://www.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_2.html> |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.1.1 |
| |
| *) Fixed bug where Cookie module would make two entries in the |
| logfile for each access [Mark Cox] |
| |
| *) Fixed bug where Redirect in .htaccess files would cause memory |
| leak. [Nathan Neulinger] |
| |
| *) MultiViews now works correctly with AddHandler [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Problems with mod_auth_msql fixed [Dirk vanGulik] |
| |
| *) Fix misspelling of "Anonymous_Authorative" directive in mod_auth_anon. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.1.0 |
| |
| *) Bring NeXT support up to date. [Takaaki Matsumoto] |
| |
| *) Bring QNX support up to date. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Make virtual hosts default to main server keepalive parameters. |
| [Alexei Kosut, Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Allow ScanHTMLTitles to work with lowercase <title> tags. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Fix missing address family for connect, also remove unreachable statement |
| in mod_proxy. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) mod_env now turned on by default in Configuration.tmpl. |
| |
| *) Bugs which were fixed: |
| a) yet more mod_proxy bugs [Ben Laurie] |
| b) CGI works again with inetd [Alexei Kosut] |
| c) Leading colons were stripped from passwords [<osm interguide.com>] |
| d) Another fix to multi-method Limit problem [<jk tools.de>] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.1b4 |
| |

| |
| *) More possibly unsecure programs removed from the support directory. |
| |
| *) More mod_auth_msql authentication improvements. |
| |
| *) VirtualHosts based on Host: headers no longer conflict with the |
| Listen directive. |
| |
| *) OS/2 compatibility enhancements. [Gary Smiley] |
| |
| *) POST now allowed to directory index CGI scripts. |
| |
| *) Actions now work with files of the default type. |
| |
| *) Bugs which were fixed: |
| a) more mod_proxy bugs |
| b) early termination of inetd requests |
| c) compile warnings on several systems |
| d) problems when scripts stop reading output early |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.1b3 |
| |
| *) Much of cgi-bin and all of cgi-src has been removed, due to |
| various security holes found and that we could no longer support |
| them. |
| |
| *) The "Set-Cookie" header is now special-cased to not merge multiple |
| instances, since certain popular browsers can not handle multiple |
| Set-Cookie instructions in a single header. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) rprintf() added to buffer code, occurrences of sprintf removed. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) CONNECT method for proxy module, which means tunneling SSL should work. |
| (No crypto needed) Also a NoCache config directive. |
| |
| *) Several API additions: pstrndup(), table_unset() and get_token() |
| functions now available to modules. |
| |
| *) mod_imap fixups, in particular Location: headers are now complete |
| URL's. |
| |
| *) New "info" module which reports on installed module set through a |
| special URL, a la mod_status. |

| for Host:-header-based virtual hosts. |
| |
| *) Anonymous authentication module improvements. |
| |
| *) MSQL authentication module improvements. |
| |
| *) Status module design improved - output now table-based. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) htdigest utility included for use with digest authentication |
| module. |
| |
| *) mod_negotiation: Accept values with wildcards to be treated with |
| less priority than those without wildcards at the same quality |
| value. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Bugs which were fixed: |
| a) numerous mod_proxy bugs |
| b) CGI early-termination bug [Ben Laurie] |
| c) Keepalives not working with virtual hosts |
| d) RefererIgnore problems |
| e) closing fd's twice in mod_include (causing core dumps on |
| Linux and elsewhere). |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.1b2 |
| |
| *) Bugfixes: |
| a) core dumps in mod_digest |
| b) truncated hostnames/ip address in the logs |
| c) relative URL's in mod_imap map files |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.1b1 |
| |
| *) Not listed. See <http://www.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_1.html> |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.0.3 |
| |
| *) Internal redirects which occur in mod_dir.c now preserve the |
| query portion of a request (the bit after the question mark). |
| [Adam Sussman] |
| |
| *) Escape active characters '<', '>' and '&' in html output in |
| directory listings, error messages and redirection links. |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Apache will now work with LynxOS 2.3 and later [Steven Watt] |

| [Nick Williams] |
| |
| *) setsockopt no longer takes a const declared argument [Martijn Koster] |
| |
| *) Reset timeout timer after each successful fwrite() to the network. |
| This patch adds a reset_timeout() procedure that is called by |
| send_fd() to reset the timeout ever time data is written to the net. |
| [Nathan Schrenk] |
| |
| *) timeout() signal handler now checks for SIGPIPE and reports |
| lost connections in a more user friendly way. [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Location of the "scoreboard" file which used to live in /tmp is |
| now configurable (for OSes that can't use mmap) via ScoreBoardFile |
| which works similar to PidFile (in httpd.conf) [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Include sys/resource.h in the correct place for SunOS4 [Sameer Parekh] |
| |
| *) the pstrcat call in mod_cookies.c didn't have an ending NULL, |
| which caused a SEGV with cookies enabled |
| |
| *) Output warning when MinSpareServers is set to <= 0 and change it to 1 |
| [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Log the UNIX textual error returned by some system calls, in |
| particular errors from accept() [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Add strerror function to util.c for SunOS4 [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.0.2 |
| |
| *) patch to get Apache compiled on UnixWare 2.x, recommended as |
| a temporary measure, pending rewrite of rfc931.c. [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) Fix get_basic_auth_pw() to set the auth_type of the request. |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) past changes to http_config.c to only use the |
| setrlimit function on systems defining RLIMIT_NOFILE |
| broke the feature on SUNOS4. Now defines HAVE_RESOURCE |
| for SUNOS and prototypes the needed functions. |
| |
| *) Remove uses of MAX_STRING_LEN/HUGE_STRING_LEN from several routines. |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Fix use of pointer to scratch memory. [Cliff Skolnick] |
| |

| |
| *) Silence mod_log_referer and mod_log_agent if not configured |
| [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Recursive includes can occur if the client supplies PATH_INFO data |
| and the server provider uses relative links; as file.html |
| relative to /doc.shtml/pathinfo is /doc.shtml/file.html. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) The replacement for initgroups() did not call {set,end}grent(). This |
| had two implications: if anything else used getgrent(), then |
| initgroups() would fail, and it was consuming a file descriptor. |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) On heavily loaded servers it was possible for the scoreboard to get |
| out of sync with reality, as a result of a race condition. |
| The observed symptoms are far more Apaches running than should |
| be, and heavy system loads, generally followed by catastrophic |
| system failure. [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Fix typo in license. [David Robinson] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 1.0.0 23 Nov 1995 |
| |
| *) Not listed. See <http://www.apache.org/docs/new_features_1_0.html> |

| |
| *) New man page for 'httpd' added to support directory [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) .htgroup files can have more than one line giving members for a |
| given group (each must have the group name in front), for NCSA |
| back-compatibility [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Mutual exclusion around accept() is on by default for SVR4 systems |
| generally, since they generally can't handle multiple processes in |
| accept() on the same socket. This should cure flaky behavior on |
| a lot of those systems. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) AddType, AddEncoding, and AddLanguage directives take multiple |
| extensions on a single command line [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) UserDir can be disabled for a given virtual host by saying |
| "UserDir disabled" in the <VirtualHost> section --- it was a bug |
| that this didn't work. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Compiles on QNX [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Corrected parsing of ctime time format [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) httpd does a perror() before exiting if it can't log its pid |
| to the PidFile, to make diagnosing the error a bit easier. |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) <!--#include file="..."--> can no longer include files in the |
| parent directory, for NCSA back-compatibility. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) '~' is *not* escaped in URIs generated for directory listings |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Eliminated compiler warning in the imagemap module [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Fixed bug involving handling URIs with escaped %-characters |
| in redirects [David Robinson] |
| |

| |
| *) Reject paths containing %-escaped '%' or null characters [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Correctly handles internal redirects to files with names containing '%' |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Repunctuated some error messages [Aram Mirzadeh, Andrew Wilson] |
| |
| *) Use geteuid() rather than getuid() to see if we have root privilege, |
| so that server correctly resets privilege if run setuid root. [Andrew |
| Wilson] |
| |
| *) Handle ftp: and telnet: URLs correctly in imagemaps (built-in module) |
| [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Fix relative URLs in imagemap files [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Somewhat better fix for the old "Alias /foo/ /bar/" business |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Don't repeatedly open the ErrorLog if a bunch of <VirtualHost> |
| entries all name the same one. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Fix directory listings with filenames containing unusual characters |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Better URI-escaping for generated URIs in directories with filenames |
| containing unusual characters [Ben Laurie] |
| |

| |
| *) Unblock alarms on error return from spawn_child() [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Sample Config files have extra note for SCO users [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Configuration has note for HP-UX users [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Eliminated some bogus Linux-only #defines in conf.h [Aram Mirzadeh] |
| |
| *) Nuked bogus #define in httpd.h [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Better test for whether a system has setrlimit() [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Calls update_child_status() after reopen_scoreboard() [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Doesn't send itself SIGHUP on startup when run in the -X debug-only mode |
| [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.14 19 Sep 1995 |
| |
| *) Compiles on SCO ODT 3.0 [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) AddDescription works (better) [Ben Laurie] |
| |
| *) Leaves an intelligible error diagnostic when it can't set group |
| privileges on standalone startup [Andrew Wilson] |
| |
| *) Compiles on NeXT again --- the 0.8.13 RLIMIT patch was failing on |
| that machine, which claims to be BSD but does not support RLIMIT. |
| [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) gcc -Wall no longer complains about an unused variable when util.c |
| is compiled with -DMINIMAL_DNS [Andrew Wilson] |
| |
| *) Nuked another compiler warning for -Wall on Linux [Aram Mirzadeh] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.13 07 Sep 1995 |

| Cloos] |
| |

| long and short filenames [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Properly initialize dynamically loaded modules [Royston Shufflebotham] |
| |
| *) Properly default ServerName for virtual servers [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Rationalize handling of BSD in conf.h and elsewhere [Randy Terbush, |
| Paul Richards and a cast of thousands...] |
| |
| *) On self-identified BSD systems (we don't try to guess any more), |
| allocate a few extra file descriptors per virtual host with setrlimit, |
| if we can, to avoid running out. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Write 22-character lock file name into buffer with enough space |
| on startup [Konstantin Olchanski] |
| |
| *) Use archaic setpgrp() interface on NeXT, which requires it [Brian |
| Pinkerton] |
| |
| *) Suppress -Wall warning by casting const away in util.c [Aram Mirzadeh] |
| |
| *) Suppress -Wall warning by initializing variable in negotiation code |
| [Tobias Weingartner] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.12 31 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) Doesn't pause three seconds after including a CGI script which is |
| too slow to die off (this is done by not even trying to kill off |
| subprocesses, including the SIGTERM/pause/SIGKILL routine, until |
| after the entire document has been processed). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Doesn't do SSI if Options Includes is off. (Ooops). [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Options IncludesNoExec allows inclusion of at least text/* [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Allows .htaccess files to override <Directory> sections naming the |
| same directory [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Removed an efficiency hack in sub_req_lookup_uri which was |
| causing certain extremely marginal cases (e.g., ScriptAlias of a |
| *particular* index.html file) to fail. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Doesn't log an error when the requested URI requires |
| authentication, but no auth header line was supplied by the |
| client; this is a normal condition (the client doesn't no auth is |
| needed here yet). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Behaves more sanely when the name server loses its mind [Sean Welch] |
| |
| *) RFC931 code compiles cleanly on old BSDI releases [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) RFC931 code no longer passes out name of prior clients on current |
| requests if the current request came from a server that doesn't |
| do RFC931. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Configuration script accepts "Module" lines with trailing whitespace. |
| [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Cleaned up compiler warning from mod_access.c [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Cleaned up comments in mod_cgi.c [Robert Thau] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.11 24 Aug 1995 |

| *) Wildcard <Directory> specifications work. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Doesn't loop for buggy CGI on Solaris [Cliff Skolnick] |
| |
| *) Symlink checks (FollowSymLinks off, or SymLinkIfOwnerMatch) always check |
| the file being requested itself, in addition to the directories leading |
| up to it. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Logs access failures due to symlink checks or invalid client address |
| in the error log [Roy Fielding, Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Symlink checks deal correctly with systems where lstat of |
| "/path/to/some/link/" follows the link. [Thau, Fielding] |
| |
| *) Doesn't reset DirectoryIndex to 'index.html' when |
| other directory options are set in a .htaccess file. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Clarified init code and nuked bogus warning in mod_access.c |
| [Florent Guillaume] |
| |
| *) Corrected several directives in sample srm.conf |
| --- includes corrections to directory indexing icon-related directives |
| (using unknown.gif rather than unknown.xbm as the DefaultIcon, doing |
| icons for encodings right, and turning on AddEncoding by default). |
| [Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Corrected descriptions of args to AddIcon and AddAlt in command table |
| [James Cloos] |
| |
| *) INSTALL & README mention "contributed modules" directory [Brian |
| Behlendorf] |
| |
| *) Fixed English in the license language... "for for" --> "for". |
| [Roy Fielding] |

| *) Fixed ScriptAlias/Alias interaction by moving ScriptAlias handling to |
| mod_alias.c, merging it almost completely with handling of Alias, and |
| adding a 'notes' field to the request_rec which allows the CGI module |
| to discover whether the Alias module has put this request through |
| ScriptAlias (which it needs to know for back-compatibility, as the old |
| NCSA code did not check Options ExecCGI in ScriptAlias directories). |
| [Robert Thau] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.10 18 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) AllowOverride applies to the named directory, and not just |
| subdirectories. [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Do locking for accept() exclusion (on systems that need it) |
| using a special file created for the purpose in /usr/tmp, and |
| not the error log; using the error log causes real problems |
| if it's NFS-mounted; this is known to be the cause of a whole |
| lot of "server hang" problems with Solaris. [David Robinson; |
| thanks to Merten Schumann for help diagnosing the problem]. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.9 12 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) Compiles with -DMAXIMUM_DNS ---- ooops! [Henrik Mortensen] |
| |
| *) Nested includes see environment variables of the including document, |
| for NCSA bug-compatibility (some sites have standard footer includes |
| which try to print out the last-modified date). [Eric Hagberg/Robert |
| Thau] |
| |
| *) <!--exec cgi="/some/uri/here"--> always treats the item named by the |
| URI as a CGI script, even if it would have been treated as something |
| else if requested directly, for NCSA back-compatibility. (Note that |
| this means that people who know the name of the script can see the |
| code just by asking for it). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) New version of dbmmanage script included in support directory as |
| dbmmanage.new. |
| |
| *) Check if scoreboard file couldn't be opened, and say so, rather |
| then going insane [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) POST to CGI works on A/UX [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) AddIcon and AddAlt commands work properly [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) NCSA server push works properly --- the Arena bug compatibility |
| workaround, which broke it, is gone (use -DARENA_BUG_WORKAROUND |
| if you still want the workaround). [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) If client didn't submit any Accept-encodings, ignore encodings in |
| content negotiation. (NB this will all have to be reworked anyway |
| for the new HTTP draft). [Florent Guillaume] |
| |
| *) Don't dump core when trying to log timed-out requests [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Really honor CacheNegotiatedDocs [Florent Guillaume] |
| |
| *) Give Redirect priority over Alias, for NCSA bug compatibility |
| [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Correctly set PATH_TRANSLATED in all cases from <!--#exec cmd=""-->, |
| paralleling earlier bug fix for CGI [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) If DBM auth is improperly configured, report a server error and don't |
| dump core. |
| |
| *) Deleted FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPTS from conf.h entry for A/UX; |
| it seems to work well enough without it (even in a 10 hits/sec |
| workout), and the overhead for the locking under A/UX is |
| alarmingly high (though it is very low on other systems). |
| [Eric Hagberg, Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Fixed portability problems with mod_cookies.c [Cliff Skolnick] |
| |
| *) Further de-Berklize mod_cookies.c; change the bogus #include. [Brian |
| Behlendorf/Eric Hagberg] |
| |
| *) More improvements to default Configuration for A/UX [Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) Compiles clean on NEXT [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) Compiles clean on SGI [Robert Thau] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.8 08 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) SunOS library prototypes now never included unless explicitly |
| requested in the configuration (via -DSUNOS_LIB_PROTOTYPES); |
| people using GNU libc on SunOS are screwed by prototypes for the |
| standard library. |
| |
| (Those who wish to compile clean with gcc -Wall on a standard |
| SunOS setup need the prototypes, and may obtain them using |
| -DSUNOS_LIB_PROTOTYPES. Those wishing to use -Wall on a system |
| with nonstandard libraries are presumably competent to make their |
| own arrangements). |
| |
| *) Strips trailing '/' characters off both args to the Alias command, |
| to make 'Alias /foo/ /bar/' work. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.7 03 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) Don't hang when restarting with a child from 'TransferLog "|..."' running |
| [reported by David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Compiles clean on OSF/1 [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Added some of the more recent significant changes (AddLanguage stuff, |
| experimental LogFormat support) to CHANGES file in distribution root |
| directory |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.6 02 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) Deleted Netscape reload workaround --- it's in violation of HTTP specs. |
| (If you actually wanted a conditional GET which bypassed the cache, you |
| couldn't get it). [Reported by Roy Fielding] |
| |
| *) Properly terminate headers on '304 Not Modified' replies to conditional |
| GETs --- no browser we can find cares much, but the CERN proxy chokes. |
| [Reported by Cliff Skolnick; fix discovered independently by Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) httpd -v doesn't call itself "Shambhala". [Reported by Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) SunOS lib-function prototypes in conf.h conditionalized on __GNUC__, |
| not __SUNPRO_C (they're needed to quiet gcc -Wall, but acc chokes on 'em, |
| and older versions don't set the __SUNPRO_C preprocessor variable). On |
| all other systems, these are never used anyway. [Reported by Mark Cox]. |
| |
| *) Scoreboard file (/tmp/htstatus.*) no longer publically writable. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.5 01 Aug 1995 |
| |
| *) Added last-minute configurable log experiment, as optional module |
| |
| *) Correctly set r->bytes_sent for HTTP/0.9 requests, so they get logged |
| properly. (One-line fix to http_protocol.c). |
| |
| *) Work around bogus behavior when reloading from Netscape. |
| It's Netscape's bug --- for some reason they expect a request with |
| If-modified-since: to not function as a conditional GET if it also |
| comes with Pragma: no-cache, which is way out of line with the HTTP |
| spec (according to Roy Fielding, the redactor). |
| |
| *) Added parameter to set maximum number of server processes. |
| |
| *) Added patches to make it work on A/UX. A/UX is *weird*. [Eric Hagberg, |
| Jim Jagielski] |
| |
| *) IdentityCheck bugfix [Chuck Murcko]. |
| |
| *) Corrected cgi-src/Makefile entry for new imagemap script. [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) More sample config file corrections; add extension to AddType for |
| *.asis, move AddType generic description to its proper place, and |
| fix miscellaneous typos. [ Alexei Kosut ] |
| |
| *) Deleted the *other* reference to the regents from the Berkeley |
| legal disclaimer (everyplace). |
| |
| *) Nuked Shambhala name from src/README; had already cleaned it out |
| of everywhere else. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.4 |
| |
| *) Changes to server-pool management parms --- renamed current |
| StartServers to MinSpareServers, created separate StartServers |
| parameter which means what it says, and renamed MaxServers to |
| MaxSpareServers (though the old name still works, for NCSA 1.4 |
| back-compatibility). The old names were generally regarded as |
| too confusing. Also altered "docs" in sample config files. |
| |
| *) More improvements to default config files --- |
| sample directives (commented out) for XBitHack, BindAddress, |
| CacheNegotiatedDocs, VirtualHost; decent set of AddLanguage |
| defaults, AddTypes for send-as-is and imagemap magic types, and |
| improvements to samples for DirectoryIndex [Alexei Kosut] |
| |
| *) Yet more improvements to default config files --- changes to |
| Alexei's sample AddLanguage directives, and sample LanguagePriority |
| [ Florent Guillaume ] |
| |
| *) Set config file locations properly if not set in httpd.conf |
| [ David Robinson ] |
| |
| *) Don't escape URIs in internal redirects multiple times; don't |
| do that when translating PATH_INFO to PATH_TRANSLATED either. |
| [ David Robinson ] |
| |
| *) Corrected spelling of "Required" in 401 error reports [Andrew Wilson] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.3 |
| |
| *) Edited distribution README to *briefly* summarize installation |
| procedures, and give a pointer to the INSTALL file in the src/ |
| directory. |
| |
| *) Upgraded imagemap script in cgi-bin to 1.8 version from more |
| recent NCSA distributions. |
| |
| *) Bug fix to previous bug fix --- if .htaccess file and <Directory> |
| exist for the same directory, use both and don't segfault. [Reported |
| by David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Proper makefile dependencies [David Robinson] |
| |
| *) Note (re)starts in error log --- reported by Rob Hartill. |
| |
| *) Only call no2slash() after get_path_info() has been done, to |
| preserve multiple slashes in the PATH_INFO [NCSA compatibility, |
| reported by Andrew Wilson, though this one is probably a real bug] |
| |
| *) Fixed mod_imap.c --- relative paths with base_uri referer don't |
| dump core when Referer is not supplied. [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Lightly edited sample config files to refer people to our documentation |
| instead of NCSA's, and to list Rob McCool as *original* author (also |
| deleted his old, and no doubt non-functional email address). Would be |
| nice to have examples of new features... |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.2 19 Jul 1995 |
| |
| *) Added AddLanuage code [Florent Guillaume] |
| |
| *) Don't say "access forbidden" when a CGI script is not found. [Mark Cox] |
| |
| *) All sorts of problems when MultiViews finds a directory. It would |
| be nice if mod_dir.c was robust enough to handle that, but for now, |
| just punt. [reported by Brian Behlendorf] |
| |
| *) Wait for all children on restart, to make sure that the old socket |
| is gone and we can reopen it. [reported by Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Imagemap module is enabled in default Configuration |
| |
| *) RefererLog and UserAgentLog modules properly default the logfile |
| [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Mark Cox's mod_cookies added to the distribution as an optional |
| module (commented out in the default Configuration, and noted as |
| an experiment, along with mod_dld). [Mark Cox] |
| |
| *) Compiles on ULTRIX (a continuing battle...). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Fixed nasty bug in SIGTERM handling [reported by Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Changed "Shambhala" to "Apache" in API docs. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Added new, toothier legal disclaimer. [Robert Thau; copied from BSD |
| license] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.1 |
| |
| *) New imagemap module [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Replacement referer log module with NCSA-compatible RefererIgnore |
| [Matthew Gray again] |
| |
| *) Don't mung directory listings with very long filenames. |
| [Florent Guillaume] |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.8.0 (nee Shambhala 0.6.2) 16 Jul 1995 |
| |
| *) New config script. See INSTALL for info. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Scoreboard mechanism for regulating the number of extant server |
| processes. MaxServers and StartServers defaults are the same as |
| for NCSA, but the meanings are slightly different. (Actually, |
| I should probably lower the MaxServers default to 10). |
| |
| Before asking for a new connection, each server process checks |
| the number of other servers which are also waiting for a |
| connection. If there are more than MaxServers, it quietly dies |
| off. Conversely, every second, the root, or caretaker, process |
| looks to see how many servers are waiting for a new connection; |
| if there are fewer than StartServers, it starts a new one. This |
| does not depend on the number of server processes already extant. |
| The accounting is arranged through a "scoreboard" file, named |
| /tmp/htstatus.*, on which each process has an independent file |
| descriptor (they need to seek without interference). |
| |
| The end effect is that MaxServers is the maximum number of |
| servers on an *inactive* server machine, but more will be forked |
| off to handle unusually heavy loads (or unusually slow clients); |
| these will die off when they are no longer needed --- without |
| reverting to the overhead of full forking operation. There is a |
| hard maximum of 150 server processes compiled in, largely to |
| avoid forking out of control and dragging the machine down. |
| (This is arguably too high). |
| |
| In my server endurance tests, this mechanism did not appear to |
| impose any significant overhead, even after I forced it to put the |
| scoreboard file on a normal filesystem (which might have more |
| overhead than tmpfs). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Set HTTP_FOO variables for SSI <!--#exec cmd-->s, not just CGI scripts. |
| [Cliff Skolnick] |
| |
| *) Read .htaccess files even in directory with <Directory> section. |
| (Former incompatibility noted on mailing list, now fixed). [Robert |
| Thau] |
| |
| *) "HEAD /" gives the client a "Bad Request" error message, rather |
| than trying to send no body *and* no headers. [Cliff Skolnick]. |
| |
| *) Don't produce double error reports for some very obscure cases |
| mainly involving auth configuration (the "all modules decline to |
| handle" case which is a sure sign of a server bug in most cases, |
| but also happens when authentication is badly misconfigured). |
| [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Moved FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT defines into conf.h (that's what |
| it's *for*, and this sort of thing really shouldn't be cluttering |
| up the Makefile). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Incidental code cleanups in http_main.c --- stop dragging |
| sa_client around; just declare it where used. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Another acc-related fix. (It doesn't like const char |
| in some places...). [Mark Cox] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.6.1 13 Jul 1995 |
| |
| *) Fixed auth_name-related typos in http_core.c [Brian Behlendorf] |
| Also, fixed auth typo in http_protocol.c unmasked by this fix. |
| |
| *) Compiles clean with acc on SunOS [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Reordered modules in modules.c so that Redirect takes priority |
| over ScriptAlias, for NCSA bug-compatibility [Rob Hartill] --- |
| believe it or not, he has an actual site with a ScriptAlias and |
| a Redirect declared for the *exact same directory*. Even *my* |
| compatibility fetish wouldn't motivate me to fix this if the fix |
| required any effort, but it doesn't, so what the hey. |
| |
| *) Fixed to properly default several server_rec fields for virtual |
| servers from the corresponding fields in the main server_rec. |
| [Cliff Skolnick --- 'port' was a particular irritant]. |
| |
| *) No longer kills off nph- child processes before they are |
| finished sending output. [Matthew Gray] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.6.0 10 Jul 1995 |
| |
| *) Two styles of timeout --- hard and soft. soft_timeout()s just put |
| the connection to the client in an "aborted" state, but otherwise |
| allow whatever handlers are running to clean up. hard_timeout()s |
| abort the request in progress completely; anything not tied to some |
| resource pool cleanup will leak. They're still around because I |
| haven't yet come up with a more elegant way of handling |
| timeouts when talking to something that isn't the client. The |
| default_handler and the dir_handler now use soft timeouts, largely |
| so I can test the feature. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) TransferLog "| my_postprocessor ..." seems to be there. Note that |
| the case of log handlers dying prematurely is probably handled VERY |
| gracelessly at this point, and if the logger stops reading input, |
| the server will hang. (It is known to correctly restart the |
| logging process on server restart; this is (should be!) going through |
| the same SIGTERM/pause/SIGKILL routine used to ding an errant CGI |
| script). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) asis files supported (new module). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) IdentityCheck code is compiled in, but has not been tested. (I |
| don't know anyone who runs identd). [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED are not set unless some real PATH_INFO |
| came in with the request, for NCSA bug-compatibility. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Don't leak the DIR * on HEAD request for a directory. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Deleted the block_alarms() stuff from dbm_auth; no longer necessary, |
| as timeouts are not in scope. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) quoted-string args in config files now handled correctly (doesn't drop |
| the last character). [Robert Thau; reported by Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) Fixed silly typo in http_main.c which was suddenly fatal in HP-UX. |
| How the hell did it ever work? [Robert Thau; reported by Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) mod_core.c --- default_type returns DEFAULT_TYPE (the compile-time |
| default default type); the former default default behavior when all |
| type-checkers defaulted had been a core dump. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| *) Copy filenames out of the struct dirent when indexing |
| directories. (On Linux, readdir() returns a pointer to the same |
| memory area every time). Fix is in mod_dir.c. [Paul Sutton] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.5.3 [not released] |
| |
| *) Default response handler notes "file not found" in the error log, |
| if the file was not found. [Cliff Skolnick]. |
| |
| *) Another Cliff bug --- "GET /~user" now properly redirects (the userdir |
| code no longer sets up bogus PATH_INFO which fakes out the directory |
| handler). [Cliff Skolnick] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.5.2 06 Jul 1995 |
| |
| *) Changes to http_main.c --- root server no longer plays silly |
| games with SIGCHLD, and so now detects and replaces dying |
| children. Child processes just die on SIGTERM, without taking |
| the whole process group with them. Potential problem --- if any |
| child process refuses to die, we hang in restart. |
| MaxRequestsPerChild may still not work, but it certainly works |
| better than it did before this! [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) mod_dir.c bug fixes: ReadmeName and HeaderName |
| work (or work better, at least); over-long description lines |
| properly terminated. [Mark Cox] |
| |
| *) http_request.c now calls unescape_url() more places where it |
| should [Paul Sutton]. |
| |
| *) More directory handling bugs (reported by Cox) |
| Parent Directory link is now set correctly. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.5.1 04 Jul 1995 |
| |
| *) Generalized cleanup interface in alloc.c --- any function can be |
| registered with alloc.c as a cleanup for a resource pool; |
| tracking of files and file descriptors has been reimplemented in |
| terms of this interface, so I can give it some sort of a test. |
| [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) More changes in alloc.c --- new cleanup_for_exec() function, |
| which tracks down and closes all file descriptors which have been |
| registered with the alloc.c machinery before the server exec()s a |
| child process for CGI or <!--#exec-->. CGI children now get |
| started with exactly three file descriptors open. Hopefully, |
| this cures the problem Rob H. was having with overly persistent |
| CGI connections. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) Mutual exclusion around the accept() in child_main() --- this is |
| required on at least SGI, Solaris and Linux, and is #ifdef'ed in |
| by default on those systems only (-DFCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT). |
| This uses fcntl(F_SETLK,...) on the error log descriptor because |
| flock() on that descriptor won't work on systems which have BSD |
| flock() semantics, including (I think) Linux 1.3 and Solaris. |
| |
| This does work on SunOS (when the server is idle, only one |
| process in the pool is waiting on accept()); it *ought* to work |
| on the other systems. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) FreeBSD and BSDI portability tweaks [Chuck Murcko] |
| |
| *) sizeof(*sa_client) bugfix from [Rob Hartill] |
| |
| *) pstrdup(..., NULL) returns NULL, [Randy Terbush] |
| |
| *) block_alarms() to avoid leaking the DBM* in dbm auth (this should |
| be unnecessary if I go to the revised timeout-handling scheme). |
| [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) For NCSA bug-compatibility, set QUERY_STRING env var (to a null |
| string) even if none came in with the request. [Robert Thau] |
| |
| *) CHANGES file added to distribution ;-). |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.4.5 |
| |
| *) mod_dld --- early dynamic loading support [rst] |
| *) Add wildcard content handlers for XBITHACK; default_hander now |
| invoked with that mechanism (as a handler hanging off mod_core) [rst] |
| *) XBITHACK supported as a wildcard content-handler, and |
| configurable at run-time (not just at compile time, as in the |
| "patchy server" releases) [rst] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.4.4 30 Jun 1995 |
| |
| *) Fixed basic thinkos in mod_dbm_auth.c [rst, reported by Mark Cox] |
| *) Handle Addtype x/y .z [rst, reported by Cox] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.4.3 |
| |
| *) Fixed very dumb bug in mod_alias; "Alias" and "Redirect" are not |
| synonymous [rst, terbush] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.4.1 28 Jun 1995 |
| |
| *) First-cut virtual host implementation; some refit in the config |
| reading code, and log management, was necessary to support this [rst] |
| *) Sub-pool machinery, originally added to avoid excessive storage |
| allocation on listings of large directories (which turned out to |
| be the problem that the 0.3 storage accounting was added to |
| find). Subrequests and mod_dir changed to use subpools. [rst] |
| *) More memory debugging --- free list consistency checks. [rst] |
| *) Added err_headers to request_rec, with support elsewhere [rst] |
| *) Other fixes to minor bugs in mod_dir and mod_includes [rst, terbush] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.3 19 Jun 1995 |
| |
| *) Switch ONE_PROCESS to a runtime command-line option (-X) |
| *) Don't compile in mod_ai_backcompat by default |
| *) Switch name of server from Apache to Shambhala in Makefile |
| *) Add some accounting routines to track memory usage in the pools, |
| for debugging |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.2 |
| |
| *) Set DOCUMENT_ROOT CGI variable |
| *) Add single-process debugging, as a compile-time option (ONE_PROCESS) |
| *) Add critical section protection to handling of cleanup structures |
| in alloc.c [rst] |
| *) Significant code reorg within the server core to group related |
| functions together [rst] |
| *) Correctly handle clients that hang up before sending any request |
| [rst] |
| *) Replace dying child processes. [rst] |
| |
| Changes with Shambhala 0.1 12 Jun 1995 |
| |
| Major rewrite of the pre-existing "patchy server" codebase, by |
| Robert Thau (rst). Significant portions of the server code, such |
| as configuration-file handling and HTTP authentication support, |
| were ripped out and rewritten from scratch. Code that was not |
| completely rewritten was significantly altered. |
| |
| Major changes with this release include: |
| |
| *) Introduction of the module API; in request handling, the central |
| machinery just dispatches to various modules, which actually do |
| most of the work. Configuration handling is similar --- modules |
| declare their own commands, and the central machinery just |
| dispatches to them. |
| |
| API features from shambhala/0.1 were substantially unchanged in |
| Apache 1.0 and 1.1. (1.0 API features not yet present in this |
| release, such as wildcard handlers and subpools, were added in |
| subsequent Shambhala releases, and were also generally rst's |
| work). |
| |
| *) This release included the following modules: |
| |
| mod_access (access control --- allow and deny directives), |
| mod_alias (Alias and Redirect commands), |
| mod_auth (straight HTTP authentication, based on flat-files) |
| mod_auth_dbm (same, with dbm files) |
| mod_cgi (CGI scripts and, in this release, ScriptAlias) |
| mod_common_log (CLF access logs; later renamed mod_log_common) |
| mod_dir (directory indexing) |
| mod_include (server-side includes) |
| mod_mime (AddType directives) |
| mod_negotiation (content negotiation) |
| mod_userdir (support for users' public_html directories) |
| |
| It also included a mod_ai_backcompat, which was a private hack |
| for back-compatibility with rst's own AI-lab servers. |
| |
| All of these modules were substantially complete, and functional |
| or nearly so (a few, which implemented features not in use at |
| Thau's site, required patches of a few lines). |
| |
| *) sub-request machinery, to allow modules to determine how other |
| modules would assign MIME types to a given file, or optionally |
| serve its content (this is heavily used by mod_dir, mod_include |
| and mod_negotiation). |
| |
| *) Resource pool system for keeping track of memory allocated and |
| files opened in service of a particular request. Much of the |
| code in the modules (when they weren't rewrites) was adjusted to |
| replace a pervasive convention of using fixed-size buffers on |
| the stack with an equally pervasive convention of using memory |
| allocated with palloc(). |
| |
| *) Reorganization of data structures associated with a given |
| request to eliminate use of global variables and the troublesome |
| unmunge_name function (used in NCSA and early Apache releases to |
| attempt to determine the URI which mapped to a given filename |
| --- a difficult proposition, given that it is easy to produce |
| setups in which multiple URIs map to the same file). |
| |
| *) Source files renamed and rearranged |
| |
| *) Very simple pre-forking behavior --- parent process forked off a |
| fixed number of children, and then just waited for SIGHUP. |
| |
| *) Other more minor changes too numerous to list. |
| |
| This release included modified versions of a lot of code from the |
| Apache 0.6.4 public release, plus an early pre-forking patch |
| codeveloped by Robert Thau and Rob Hartill. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.7.3 20 Jun 1995 |
| |
| *) There were a bunch of changes between Apache 0.6.4 and 0.7.3 that |
| were incorporated by Rob Hartill on the main branch while Robert Thau |
| worked on the Shambhala rewrite above. Most were merged into the |
| Shambala architecture after Apache 0.8.0. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.6.4 13 May 1995 |
| |
| *) Patches by Rob Hartill, Cliff Skolnick, Randy Terbush, Robert Thau, |
| and others. |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.5.1 10 Apr 1995 |
| |
| Changes with Apache 0.4 02 Apr 1995 |
| |
| *) Patches by Brian Behlendorf, Andrew Wilson, Robert Thau, |
| and Rob Hartill. |
| |
