Updated September 4, 2001:
- Builds using Apache 1.3 APACI structure
- Updated to Apache 1.3 API
- Supports both static configurations and loadable modules
- Enhanced documentation for new options and common configurations
- New WebKeepSync directive to facilitate server-side scripting like PHP,
server-side includes and Perl
- New WebKeepDirectoryIndex directive to flexibly complement Apache DirectoryIndex
- Built and tested on several version of Red Hat Linux and FreeBSD.
Potential Enhancements:
The following enhancements are being considered for future versions. If you
have a preference or if you have an idea that is not on the list, please contact
the curator.
- Add support for mass virtual hosting, analogous to mod_vhost_alias functionality.
- Add binary loadable modules to the depot for ease of installation.
- Port to other platforms. Most prominent are probably Solaris and Windows.
This depends on platform availability and updates to compilers for P4API builds.
Please contact the curator.
- WebKeepRefresh directive to allow automatic refreshing of files that are
never accessed through a Web request, such as PHP includes.
- Add WebKeepScriptAlias to eliminate some redundant mappings for /cgi-bin
and the like.
- Reduce the number of errors logged to the Apache logs.
- Add WebDAV support for direct submission to the depot.
- Add basic authentication against Perforce user database as alternative to
user and password in httpd.conf.
- Add directory listing capability.
- Port as an ISAPI filter for IIS.
- Increased integration with application servers, including the major J2EE
servers and Zope.
