# Line 1  Line 1 
1    ** Changes from 0.1.3 to 0.2.0
2     * Better large file support (now uses the included autoconf macros)
3    
4    ** Changes from 0.1.2 to 0.1.3 - 20/01/2003
5     * Added DefaultCharset configuration directive. The default
6       character set given, will be appended to all text mime types.
7     * Corrected bug in KeepAlive usage in HTTP/1.1, which made the
8       server to ignore the value sent by the client.
9     * CGIAction can now be used even if HIC CGIs are disabled.
10     * Some optimizations in HTTP header parsing.
11     * Added a more complete mime.types in examples/ contributed by
12       <voidnull@qnet.pl>.
13     * Added the MaxSSLConnections configuration directive.
14     * Two mutexes are used in accept to allow parallel accepts
15       of SSL and plain connections.
16     * Added Dependency on gnutls 0.8.0.
17    
18    ** Changes from 0.1.1 to 0.1.2 - 08/01/2003
19     * Allow running the server as root, if explicitly stated in
20       configuration file. Patch by James Harr <james@grickle.org>
21     * Better pthreads detection.
22     * Outputs to error log if non executable CGIs are found.
23     * Does not close HTTP/1.1 connections by default.
24     * The current behavour is to demand the Host header in HTTP/1.1
25       requests.
26     * Added support for CGIAction CGIs. There are just like CGIs
27       but they are not executed. They are parsed using a given program.
28     * Added init script for redhat in contrib/redhat/rc.hydra,
29       contributed by <voidnull@qnet.pl>.
30    
31    ** Changes from 0.1.0 to 0.1.1 - 17/12/2002
32     * Corrected bug in Keep-Alive mode when SSL or TLS was enabled.
33     * Fixed unexpected timeout in first connection on an idle server.
34    
35    ** Changes from 0.0.10 to 0.1.0 - 16/11/2002
36     * No changes. This is the final release by me --Nikos
37    
38    ** Changes from 0.0.9 to 0.0.10 - 08/11/2002
39     * Corrected bug in error logging.
40     * Use the TMPDIR environment variable instead of TMP to get
41       the temporary directory.
42    
43    ** Changes from 0.0.8 to 0.0.9 - 27/10/2002
44     * Long offsets are not used by default.
45     * Use of pipes instead of temporary files, if the post data sent
46       are less than PIPE_BUF.
47     * More consistent logging. The server's hostname or "unknown"
48       are prepended to the log message.
49     * Corrected redirection/aliases behaviour, to match the documented one.
50     * SSLParamsRefresh was renamed to MaintenanceInterval and is more
51       generic, since it includes some server cleanups.
52     * Added file access control lists per virtual host. Based on patch for
53       Boa by Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
54     * Added the ability to disable HIC threads by using 0 in the
55       HICThreads configuration directive.
56     * Hydra now uses poll by default. Select is available using the --with-select
57       configure option.
58    
59    ** Changes from 0.0.7 to 0.0.8 - 25/10/2002
60     * Better pthread detection.
61     * Better detection of dlopen call.
62     * Some changes to compile in gcc 2.95
63     * Added support for FreeBSD's sendfile (untested).
64    [Ported from Boa 0.94.14rc1]
65     * add new state, IOSHUFFLE, which utilizes sendfile (or
66       emulates it using the request's buffer, otherwise)
67     * make the default socket size 32K.  The client_stream_size stays constant
68       at 8K, and the new 'buffer' size is 4K
69       Note also that the new code uses the "default" socket buffer size
70       it obtains with the first accept()ed socket.
71     * make default behavior be to leave stderr alone, but tie it
72       to cgilog otherwise
73     * add [optional, Linux-only] check for sendfile system call
74     * use --disable-sendfile to disable sendfile support
75       sendfile support for files > 100K is default, now.
76       It's significantly faster and easier than the alternative
77     * umask ~0770 before exec
78     * tie stdout to the access_log, unless there is no access_log,
79       in which case tie it to /dev/null
80     * use sensible defaults for umask (077) and (027 for CGI)
81     * add and document new parameters (CGILog and CGIumask)
82     * vast improvements to the cgi-test.cgi program, by Jon Nelson
83       and Landon Curt Noll.
84     * next 3 items by Don Mahurin (patches modified somewhat):
85     * pidfile patch
86     * default mime_types patch
87     * NCSA environment environment variables wrapped in
88       #ifdef USE_NCSA_CGI_ENV
89     * fix some escaping issues with the directory indexer
90       (Ulf Harnhammar)
91     * backport poll support from 0.95
92    
93    ** Changes from 0.0.6 to 0.0.7 - 10/10/2002
94     * Added support for large files in 32 bit systems.
95     * Added support for SSL_* variables in CGIs.
96     * Added options in configuration file, to request and verify
97       a client certificate.
98     * The headers of HIC-CGIs are now parsed by the server.
99     * Corrected behavour in SIGHUP signal handling, to reread
100       the SSL related variables.
101     * Children and HIC threads are now killed using a signal, to avoid
102       unexpected errors, and memory leaks.
103    
104  ** Changes from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 - 03/10/2002  ** Changes from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 - 03/10/2002
