1.3.13 moving targets
Here's my shortlist of Win32 issues to fix before we roll:
1) Add a simple hold console open patch (wait for close or
the ESC key, with a nice message) if the server died a
bad death (non-zero exit code) in console mode. Add the
ConsoleHandler to deal with Ctrl+C/Ctrl+Break and, at
least under NT, shutdown, logoff and window close.
2) Assure we haven't drifted too far between httpd.conf-dist
and httpd.conf-dist-win.
3) Assure the windows.html and win_compiling.html reflect
reality, today.
4) Get a CHANGES entry from Mike on the NW commit of
yesterday (nudge, nudge)
That's three little things, but if someone wants to grab one
and run with it be my guest! I've got the handle on the
first issue myself, already.
I'm sure some folk want to review the stat() success on failure
scenario, to prevent other future holes from popping up there.
Finally, is there any value in mod_proxy creating the ProxyRoot
directory if it does not exist? If you think there is, what
should the permission mask be (unix)?

This turned out to be a little more complicated than I thought.
mod_setenvif currently does the envariable processing during
the post-read-request phase.. which is before the URI has been
translated to a filesystem path, and so no per-dir stuff can
be done. I've worked around that by running the env-setter
twice, once during post-read-request and once during header-parse,
and only dealing with the appropriate directives in each call
(i.e., the second call doesn't process any entries the first one
has already done), but the result is a somewhat more involved
patch than I anticipated. I'll post it separately.

Fixed... it was the service dependency, 80% of the time, that
IP or the internal routing hadn't started. 20% of the problems
are firewall products that mess with our listeners.

Skim the manual/windows.html file (either 1.3.13-dev or 2.0) for
the very long winded description of the problem :-)

Does this item also address the dreaded 'Error 1067' NT service
alert?

Actually, REALLY important question - did you ever encounter the
error 1067 bug or any other aspects of the crossed-up dependency
problem?
I ask because I'd like to assure we really licked it.

I have finished my look into the files windows.html and win_compiling.html.
I installed Windows 2000 Server clean, installed Visual Studio 6 clean,
built CVS from source, did a checkout of apache-1.3, followed the the
instructions to build both debug and release versions from the command-line,
and from Visual Studio, installed the release version, got it running,
stopped it, installed as a service, ran it, uninstalled the service.
This all happened in 25 minutes. Slick as a whistle.
You guys rock!
Scott Sanders
PS: the only thing I would add to the windows.html file is that it runs on
Win2K, but that is up to you guys if you feel it has been tested enough. I
run Apache 1.3.12 on 3 win2k machines, one of which is using virtual hosts,
all without a hitch.

Please insert all four of these items into the STATUS file under
"Showstoppers", so they can be tracked for a longer period than this email
thread :-)
[ if people miss this email, they can always find this in the STATUS file,
which Ken auto-sends every couple days or so ]
thx,
