No announcement goes out until we have three +1 for a release from people
who have tested the tarball, after which we move the tarball to
www.apache.org/dist/httpd, and 24 hours after that we make the announcement
to the announcement list.  Right now a message should be sent to
stable-testers so that they can pick it up.

Feel free to patch the offensive [uhm... offending] code for 1.3.21 as well,
if you have the itch.

That would do it :-)

Thanks for the update.

We don't.

IIRC it's in the --enable-shared=most collection in Apache 1.3. I *have* run
into it before because I tend to install Apache on boxes that are not
correctly named in the local DNS.

   The offending code is below.  It seems rather inappropriate to me for 
a module to be calling exit() under any circumstances.  For one thing, 
the pid file doesn't get cleaned up.  But apparently a lot of modules do 
this...  Something to clean up in 2.0...

   Anyway, the reason it didn't happen before is that I didn't enable 
that module before, so that's my bad; the code's been there a long time.

   Never mind me.

   Since when do I have to have a host entry for my machine in order to 
run httpd?  I computer thinks its hostname is 'bartleby'.  There is no 
DNS entry for it, nor an /etc/hosts entry, since it gets its IP via 
DHCP.  When I try to launch Apache, it complains:

[Thu May 17 17:36:23 2001] [alert] httpd: Could not determine the 
server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName

And it exits with an entry in the error log:

[Thu May 17 17:36:23 2001] [alert] mod_unique_id: unable to 
gethostbyname("bartleby")

This is new; previously it launched OK.  If I set ServerName in 
httpd.conf, the complaint to stderr goes away, but the log entry is 
still there and the server still exits.

I reckon I can add bartleby to /etc/hosts as an alias for localhost, but 
it looks like one part of the server thinks it can deal, and another is 
bailing out.  Anyway, this used to work.
