*) 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
docs accordingly. [Paul J. Reder]
*) Introduce the EnableSendfile directive, allowing users of NFS
shares to disable sendfile mechanics when they either fail
outright or provide intermitantly corrupted data. PR
[William Rowe]
*) Resolve the error "An operation was attempted on something
that is not a socket. : winnt_accept: AcceptEx failed.
Attempting to recover." for users of various firewall and
anti-virus software on Windows. PR 8325 [William Rowe]
*) Add the ProxyBadHeader directive, which gives the admin some
control on how mod_proxy should handle bogus HTTP headers from
proxied servers. This allows 2.0 to "emulate" 1.3's behavior if
desired. [Jim Jagielski]
*) Change the LDAP modules to export their symbols correctly
during a Windows build. Add dsp files for Windows. Update
README.ldap file for Windows build instructions.
[Andre Schild <A.Schild@aarboard.ch>]
*) Performance improvements for the code that generates HTTP
response headers [Brian Pane]
*) Add -S as a synonym for -t -DDUMP_VHOSTS.
[Thom May <thom@planetarytramp.net>]
*) Fix a bug with dbm rewrite maps which caused the wrong value to
be used when the key was not found in the dbm. PR 13204
[Jeff Trawick]
*) Fix a problem with streaming script output and mod_cgid.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) Add ap_register_provider/ap_lookup_provider API.
[John K. Sterling <john@sterls.com>, Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Rewrite of aaa modules to an authn/authz model.
[Dirk-Willem van Gulik, Justin Erenkrantz]
*) SECURITY: [CAN-2002-0840] 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 environment variable for CGI
and SSI requests. It's safe to escape as only the '<', '>',
and '&' characters are affected, which won't appear in a valid
hostname. Reported by Matthew Murphy <mattmurphy@kc.rr.com>.
[Brian Pane]
*) Fix a core dump in mod_cache when it attemtped to store uncopyable
buckets. This happened, for instance, when a file to be cached
contained SSI tags to execute a CGI script (passed as a pipe
bucket). [Paul J. Reder]
*) Ensure that output already available is flushed to the network
when the content-length filter realizes that no new output will
be available for a while. This helps some streaming CGIs as
well as some other dynamically-generated content. [Jeff Trawick]
*) Fix a mutex problem in mod_ssl session cache support which
could lead to an infinite loop. PR 12705
[amund.elstad@ergo.no (Amund Elstad), Jeff Trawick]
*) SECURITY: CAN-2002-1156 (cve.mitre.org)
Fix the exposure of CGI source when a POST request is sent to
a location where both DAV and CGI are enabled. [Ryan Bloom]
*) Allow the UserDir directive to accept a list of directories.
This matches what Apache 1.3 does. Also add documentation for
this feature. [Jay Ball <jay@veggiespam.com>]
*) New Module: mod_logio. adds the ability to log bytes sent and
received. [Bojan Smojver <bojan@rexursive.com>]
*) SuExec needs to use the same default directory as the rest of
server, namely /usr/local/apache2.
[SangBeom han <sbhan@os.korea.ac.kr>]
*) Get mod_auth_ldap to retry connections on LDAP_SERVER_DOWN.
[Thomas Bennett <thomas.bennett@eds.com>, Graham Leggett]
*) Make sure the contents of the WWW-Authenticate header is
passed on a 4xx error by proxy. Previously all headers
were dropped, resulting in the browser being unable to
authenticate. [Dr Richard Reiner <rreiner@fscinternet.com>,
Richard Danielli <rdanielli@fscinternet.com>, Graham Wiseman
<gwiseman@fscinternet.com>, David Henderson
<dhenderson@fscinternet.com>]
*) Make mod_cache's CacheMaxStreamingBuffer directive work
properly for virtual hosts that override server-wide mod_cache
setttings. [Matthieu Estrade <estrade-m@ifrance.com>]
*) Add -p option to apxs to allow programs to be compiled with apxs.
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) mod_dav: Check for versioning hooks before using them.
[Greg Stein]
*) The protocol version (eg: HTTP/1.1) in the request line parsing
is now case insensitive. [Jim Jagielski]
*) Allow AddOutputFilterByType to add multiple filters per directive.
[Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Remove warnings with Sun's Forte compiler. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Fixed mod_disk_cache's generation of 304s
[Kris Verbeeck <Kris.Verbeeck@ubizen.com>]
*) Add support for using fnmatch patterns in the final path
segment of an Include statement (eg.. include /foo/bar/*.conf).
and remove the noise on stderr during config dir processing.
[Joe Orton <jorton@redhat.com>]
*) mod_cache: cache_storage.c. Add the hostname and any request
args to the key generated for caching. This provides a unique
key for each virtual host and for each request with unique
args. [Paul J. Reder, args code provided by Kris Verbeeck]
*) mod_cache: Do not cache responses to GET requests with query
URLs if the origin server does not explicitly provide an
Expires header on the response (RFC 2616 Section 13.9)
[Kris Verbeeck krisv@be.ubizen.com]
*) Fix memory leak in core_output_filter. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) Update OpenSSL detection to work on Darwin.
[Sander Temme <sctemme@covalent.net>]
*) Update the xslt and css to give the documentation a more
modern style.
[André Malo <nd@perlig.de>, Gernot Winkler <greh@o3media.de>]
*) Fix some bucket memory leaks in the chunking code
[Joe Schaefer <joe+apache@sunstarsys.com>]
*) Add ModMimeUsePathInfo directive. [Justin Erenkrantz]
*) mod_cache: added support for caching streamed responses (proxy,
CGI, etc) with optional CacheMaxStreamingBuffer setting [Brian Pane]
*) Add image/x-icon to httpd.conf PR 10993.
[Ian Holsman, Peter Bieringer <pb@bieringer.de>]
*) Fix FileETags none operation. PR 12207.
[Justin Erenkrantz, Andrew Ho <andrew@tellme.com>]
*) Restored the experimental leader/followers MPM to working
condition and converted its thread synchronization from
mutexes to atomic CAS. [Brian Pane]
*) Fix Logic on non-html file removal in mod_deflate
[Kris Verbeeck <Kris.Verbeeck@ubizen.com>]
*) Fix "ab -g"'s truncated year: the last digit was cut off.
[Leon Brocard <acme@astray.com>]
*) mod_rewrite can now sets cookies in err_headers, uses the correct
expiry date, and can now set the path as well
PR 12132,12181,12172.
[Ian Holsman / Rob Cromwell <apachechangelog@robcromwell.com>]
*) 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
allow around 8000 threads to be started per child process.
'EDITBIN /STACK:size apache.exe' can be used to change this
value directly in the apache.exe executable.
[Bill Stoddard]
*) Win32: Implement ThreadLimit directive in the Windows MPM.
*) Remove CacheOn config directive since it is set but never checked.
No sense wasting cycles on unused code. Besides, the only truly
bug free code is deleted code. :) [Paul J. Reder]
*) BufferLogs are now run-time enabled, and the log_config now has 2 new
callbacks to allow a 3rd party module to actually do the writing of the
log file [Ian Holsman]
*) Correct ISAPIReadAheadBuffer to default to 49152, per mod_isapi docs.
