[users@httpd] mod_cache fixed in which Apache version?

Hi,

We'd filed a bug 57538 with Apache few days ago where we had impersonation
issue using mod_cache in Apache 2.2.3 64-bit version.

We got reply from Apache that mod_cache bugs was fixed in 2.2.13 version
and they recommended to use latest 2.2.29.

In our environment, there are many more other apache instances but
different versions 2.2.11 with mod_cache enabled.

Before we would recommend our applications teams to use specific apache
server with mod_cache enabled, we would like to know which specific base
version of Apache has all mod_cache fixes?

Thanks,
Mahendra.

Either a bug is affecting you that was fixed between 2.2.3 and 2.2.11
or you're not experiencing it on the 2nd server for some reason other
than using a 32-bit build.

There's only one codebase. 99+% of bugs the architecture (32-bit,
64-bit) is irrelevant.

Hi Eric,

I apologize for any confusion. To be precise, our deployment has several
apache instances of different versions including 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

In one of the apache instance (2.2.3 version 64-bit) we got cache issue and
you had confirmed that caches issues were fixed in 2.2.13 and suggested to
use latest 2.2.29.

In one of the other apache instances (2.2.11 version 32-bit) we don't see
cache issue. So we would like to understand what version of apache 32-bit
the cache issue were fixed?

Thanks
Mahendra.

This email doesn't make any sense to me and I've got no idea what
yoour objective is.   Before you asked about "all" mod_cache fixes.
If you're interested in what specific hopelessly out of date
maintenance level fixed an ancient bug, look at the changelog or view
the SVN history.

If you want to run the oldest release with the fix, it's a bad idea.
If you want to confirm your hopelessly out of date httpd has a
specific bug, test on it and a recent release.

Hi Eric and Yehuda,

Thanks for the reply. You had confirmed that cache bugs was fixed in 2.2.13
for 64-bit Apache version. We had another apache instance of 2.2.11 but it
is 32-bit. So the question is which Apache version fixed the mod_cache
issue in *32 bit apache* , may be this issue was fixed in Apache 2.2.11 for
32 bit.

Does this makes sense?

Thanks
Mahendra.

Are you asking if you should update your 2.2.11 servers too or are you
asking what is the oldest version you could update to and still resolve the
problem?
I would guess that almost everyone here will tell you to upgrade to the
newest version on all your systems. Older versions may have security issues
or other bugs that are fixed in newer versions.

The changelog says _a_ mod_cache bug was fixed in 2.2.29 (2.2.28 was
not released).

But I don't understand the point here -- if you'd upgrade, would you
stay a few levels back just because mod_cache stayed the same?
