the NDBM library looks like Berkeley-DB based.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#3773
*) Add ability to handle DES or MD5 authentication passwords.
[Ryan Bloom <rbb@Raleigh.IBM.Com>]
*) Fix O(n^2) memory consumption in mod_speling. [Dean Gaudet]
*) SECURITY: Avoid some buffer overflow problems when escaping
quoted strings. (This overflow was on the heap and we believe
impossible to exploit.) [Rick Perry <perry@ece.vill.edu>]
*) Let src/Configure be aware of CFLAGS options starting with plus
signs as it's the case for the HP/UX compiler.
[Doug Yatcilla <yatcilda@umdnj.edu>] PR#3681
*) Remove the hard-wire of TAR=tar (we now check for gtar and gnutar first)
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

*) 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

*) 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

*) Add APACI --shadow=DIR variant (in addition to --shadow). This now first
creates an external package shadow tree in DIR before the local build

from these sources. An automatically triggered VPATH-like mechanism is

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

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.

*) Fix dbmmanage.1 manual page.
[Youichirou Koga <y-koga@jp.FreeBSD.org>] PR#2992
*) Fix possible buffer overflow situation in suexec.c.
[Jeff Stewart <jws@purdue.edu>] PR#2790
*) Add some more LIBS for the SCO5 platform which are needed for the already
used -lprot. It's actually a bug in SCO5, of course.
[Ronald Record <rr@sco.com>] PR#2533
*) Fix documentation of ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse according to the
trailing slash problem. [Jon Drukman <jsd@gamespot.com>] PR#2933
*) Remove `-msym' option from LDFLAGS_SHLIB for the Digital UNIX (OSF/1)
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
"%" chars and second ap_log_printf() no longer does a double-formatting
(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]
*) Renamed is_HTTP_xxx() macros to ap_is_HTTP_xxx() name. They are used inside
modules as API functions and we forgot them at the big symbol renaming.
[Ralf S. Engelschall]
*) Remove bad reference to non-existing SERVER_VERSION in mod_rewrite.html
[Youichirou Koga <y-koga@jp.FreeBSD.ORG>] PR#2895
*) Dynamically size the filename column of mod_autoindex output.
[Dean Gaudet]
*) Add the ability to do POST requests to the ab benchmarking tool.
[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
the header lines. [Martin Kraemer]
*) 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: 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
*) Fix suEXEC start message: Has to be of `notice' level to really get
printed together with the standard startup message because the `notice'
level is handled special inside ap_log_error() for startup messages.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2761 PR#2761 PR#2765
*) Add correct `model' MIME types from RFC2077 to mime.types file.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2732
*) Fixed examples in mod_rewrite.html document.
[Youichirou Koga <y-koga@jp.FreeBSD.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2756
*) Allow ap_read_request errors to propagate through the normal request
handling loop so that the connection can be properly closed with
lingering_close, thus avoiding a potential TCP reset that would
cause the client to miss the HTTP error response. [Roy Fielding]
*) 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
*) PORT: NEC EWS4800 support.
[MATSUURA Takanori <t-matsuu@protein.osaka-u.ac.jp>]
*) Fix a segfault in the proxy on OS/2. [Brian Havard]
*) Fix Win32 part of ap_spawn_child() by providing a reasonable child_info
structure instead of just NULL. This fixes at least the RewriteMap
programs under Win32. [Marco De Michele <mdemichele@tin.it>] PR#2483
*) Add workaround to top-level `configure' script for brain dead
`echo' commands which interpet escape sequences per default.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2654
*) Make sure that the path to the Perl interpreter is correctly
adjusted under `make install' also for the printenv CGI script.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2595
*) Update the mod_rewrite.html document to correctly reflect the situation
of the `proxy' (`[P]') feature. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2679
*) Fix `install-includes' sub-target of `install' target in top-level
Makefile.tmpl: The umask+cp approach didn't work as expected (especially
for users which extracted the distribution under 'umask 077'), so replace
it by an explicit cp+chmod approach.
[Richard Lloyd, Curt Sampson, Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2656 PR#2626
*) Fix `distclean' and `clean' targets in src/Makefile.tmpl to have same
behavior and to cleanup correctly even under enabled SHARED_CORE rule.
[Ralf S. Engelschall]
*) Use a more straight forward and thus less problematic Sed command in
src/helper/mkdir.sh script. [Ralf S. Engelschall]
*) Make sure the `configure' scripts doesn't fail when trying to guess the
domainname of the machine and there are multiple `domainname' and
`search' entries in /etc/resolv.conf.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2710
*) Add note about the SHARED_CORE requirement on some platforms also to the
INSTALL file because a lot of users don't read htdocs/manual/dso.html
first. [Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2701
*) Fix document "hyperlink" for dso.html in src/Configuration.tmpl
[Knut A.Syed <Knut.Syed@nhh.no>] PR#2674

engine does any manipulations or decisions based upon request fields.
[Ken Coar] PR#1644
*) Document the special APACI behavior for installation paths where
``/apache'' is appended to paths under some (well defined, of course)
situations to prevent pollution of system locations with Apache files.
[Ralf S. Engelschall] PR#2660
