Apache1x port to IHS2x query

[Swapan Gupta <sw...@infosys.com>]

Hi,
 
I am trying to port my module based on Apache1x to IHS 2.0.42(which is based on Apache2x) on AIX.
 
In Apache1x module, I used a function for check access. Now I have registered a hook ap_hook_access_checker and passed that function as the parameter.
Later on I am trying to access a particular HTTP header using the apr_table_get function. However, this function is not returning any value for the header, however I could clearly see the header in the browser using a cgi perl script.
Moreover, I have an installation of Apache 2.0.47, on which my ported code works fine.
 
Any pointers why the same should fail on HIS when it is working on Apache or do I need to use any other hooking function as an alternative to the function I used to specify in the access check parameter of my Apache 1x module.
 
Thanks
Swapan.

dev@apr is for Apache portable run-time questions, not for Apache API 
questions, and certainly not for questions regarding differences betwen 
Apache 2 and IHS 2.

If you have a question about the Apache API, there is the apache-modules 
mailing list.

If the IHS 2 API appears to behave differently than open source Apache 2 
as downloaded from httpd.apache.org and built with the worker MPM, then 
open a PMR with IBM and we'll investigate.  Or send me an e-mail with a 
simple but complete testcase that exposes the differing behavior and 
which I can run myself, and I'll investigate.
