[users@httpd] Installing Apache 1.3 on Windows 2003
I just installed Apache 1.3.5 on Windows 2003, and when I tested it it
worked, but when I tried to install PHP I can't start the server anymore.
The apache server on the local machine started and then stopped...........
I used this website to configure PHP.
<http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/php4install.shtml>
http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/php4install.shtml
I have also changed the document root to another location, which did work
before PHP. So assuming I have followed the instruction on this site to the
T, what could be the problem????????
Thanks

apachectl -M
will tell you all the modules you have loaded (if you are using the
most recent version of apache; otherwise, you'll need "httpd -l" and
check all the LoadModule directives in httpd.conf).
But you don't need mod_rewrite for this. Assuming you have control of
httpd.conf, you can use something like
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/env.html#examples
or
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/DisableImageHotLinking

And what exactly is happening when you try that? What exactly do you
type in your browser and what do you see in your browser, you
access_log and your error_log. Finally, and most importantly, have you
used the RewriteLog in httpd.conf to see what mod_rewrite is seeing.
In general, mod_rewrite is easier to deal with in httpd.conf as well,
if you can avoid using .htaccess.

[users@httpd] .htaccess and hotlinking question/problem
Posted by Techman <te...@netscan.ca>.
I have read about a hundred pages on hotlinking today and I have been trying
to implement an .htaccess file to prevent it, but so far nothing is working.
I am using Slackware Linux 10 and Apache 1.3.36.
What I want to do is stop people from directly downloading from my DL
directory.
i.e. www.mysite.com/download/myfile.avi
If they type in the above I want an error page displayed.
Currently I have an .htaccess file in the root directory of my site, as
follows.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteOptions inherit
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}!^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.mysite.ca/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*.(avi|AVI|mpg|MPG|wmv|WMV|swf|SWF)$ - [F]
This is very simplistic, but I just want to get it working, then I can add
other options or whatever.
Any help on what I am doing wrong is appreciated, or any other solutions to
stop direct downloading.
Thanks

If you are really running apache 1.3.5 on your linux box, and corresponding
software from that epoch, it has serious issues. I doubt it's your box anymore

Apache 1.3.5 is about 8 years old, and was never released. If you run software
that flaky, and connected to the internet, you are pwned and should reformat
your harddrive immediately and spare us the spam and viruses you are spewing
out on behalf of others.
> New does not necessarily mean better, and in many cases are much worse.
In the case of Apache 1.3 - I'm individually responsible for a vast number
of Windows-specific bug fixes to the very hackish attempt to run Apache using
threads, instead of separate processes. It works (kinda) and I used it (past
tense) myself when I was locally developing stuff on win to roll out on real
boxes in production (not windows). Apache 1.3 was built for fork().
In Apache 2 we scrapped that crap. We started over designing the internals
of apache to deal with threads, processes or whatever the Operating System
provided us that would work effectively. A library called APR provides the
most generic abstraction of these concepts that we can.
So on Windows, you won't find many champions when the only source code
champion (me) has effectively said aidos to 1.3 when it's running on Win.
The bugs that remain in 1.3 on Windows will never be fixed. The solution
to a new server on Windows is an Apache 2.something version.
That is as official a word as you'll ever read.

Now that everyone has got their opinions out of the way of how behind I am,
is their a way to get this to work? To the person who said "I doubt it's
your box anymore", Why?? It is and it works, and to WOW everyone even more,
it's running beautifully on a 366 with 256 megs of ram.
It never crashes, it never hiccups, and it's reasonably fast running on an
old version of Slackware (8.1) - so why would I want to change it? I also
have an analog TV and a 15 year old toaster that work fantastic as well, and
I'm not planning to upgrade those either.
New does not necessarily mean better, and in many cases are much worse.

With security holes, exploits, etc, do you REALLY want to run a OLD
version of Apache?
Do you keep your operating system up to date with patches?

It works, PHP doesn't - and since I have 1.3 on my Linux box I want to keep
them the same, and I don't plan on upgrading Linux. If it isn't broke, don't
