Release:
CURRENT RELEASE NOTES:
* 32 status:
- Justin is waiting for Win32 to become functional. As potential
- RM for .32, he considers it a showstopper. Once Win32 is
- operational (per EitherBills), .32 will be rolled. If the group
- thinks that we could have a good beta without Win32 support, please
- note so here. If a majority agree that Win32 is not required for
- a beta, Justin will roll .32 ASAP. (And, if you agree with the
- fact that Win32 is a showstopper, please note that here too.)
-
- trawick: not a showstopper IMO; unmaintained platforms
- shouldn't hold up the availability of a beta for the
- users of maintained platforms; maybe "unmaintained"
- seems drastic, but it seems to me that we are limited to
- narrow windows of opportunity in which (a) the server
- is truly stable and (b) a number of people are
- confident that the server is truly stable; if a
- particular platform can't reach stability during
- that window then tough, and we'll hope that the
- maintainers will get things resolved before the next
- release

- * Proposed BETA possibilities
- 31 + fixes for all resolved problems and call it 32 (instead of HEAD)
+ Proposed tag is JRE_1. A proposed tarball is at:
+ http://www.apache.org/~jerenkrantz/2.0.32-jre/httpd-2.0.32-JRE-1-alpha.tar.gz
+ Win32 is not expected to work.

- -1 : BillS, gregames, BrianP, Jim
- bumps since original tag:
- * mod-dir patch
- * scoreboard x2 : 1 to fix gracefull restarts
- 1 to fix netware
- * win32/locks.c : to fix mod_rewrite on win32
-
- problems with v31:
- * libtool/binbuild on AIX -- possible addition of patched
- binbuild.sh to 31-beta roll

- -1:
- Jeff says: We can't do anything about libtool since AIX
- needs a version that won't work on some
- platforms. Handle this in the README.
- The binbuild issue isn't AIX. It is
- something that could happen anywhere that
- the binbuild-er has their own expat.
- Handle this by patching binbuild.sh for a
- beta roll or putting a patch in the README for
- use by people who want to do binbuild but
- have expat installed locally.
- gregames: why can't we roll a second tarball with the
- appropriate libtool version? doesn't
- Darwin need it as well as AIX?
-
- * erroneous check in an AP_DEBUG_ASSERT() call. Only happens
- in maintainer mode. Fixed in modules/http/http_protocol.c
- revision 1.391
-
- * seg faults in core_input_filter when the client goes away
- before any POST body bytes are received.
- Jeff committed a fix with server/core.c revision 1.144.
- Justin committed a fix with server/protocol.c revision 1.78
- (server/protocol.c revision 1.81 demotes a potentially
- annoying error message)
-
- * FirstBill reports problem [re]starting as-a-service, shared
- score is suspect. OtherBill is investigating... has found
- . created restart and shutdown events, only restart
- survived initialization on XP, although breaking into
- the debugger interferes with reproducing the bug.
- Perhaps in FirstBill's example _restart didn't survive.
- . Scoreboard appears irrelevant to the problem.
- . This looks like handle corruption in NT/XP
- . Args are not initialized correctly when the -k install
- is given.
- OtherBill will not create Win32 binaries due to this bug.
-
- * mod_auth_dbm can't open a Berkeley DB password file on Unix
- Justin postulates that this might be related to the fact
- that mod_auth_dbm wasn't using apr-util. See
- modules/aaa/mod_auth_dbm.c revision 1.42 and
- module/aaa/config.m4 revision 1.54. Also, FreeBSD's DB
- variant was not properly detected. See
- apr-util/build/apu-conf.m4 revision 1.31 and
- apr-util/dbm/apr_dbm_berkeleydb.c revision 1.17.
-
- * Madhu reports that the worker MPM doesn't shutdown nicely
- after a stress test.
-
- * mod_autoindex displays the wrong icon for subdirectories
- on Unix
- possible fix in modules/generators/mod_autoindex.c r1.93.
-
- * anon shared memory not allocating enough
- (fix is apr/shm/unix/shm.c 1.14)
-
FINAL RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
* ap_directory_walk skips some per-dir config merge functions
