PRE-RELEASE: lighttpd-1.5.0-r1477.tar.gz 10

Posted by jan Mon, 18 Dec 2006 18:11:00 GMT

mod-proxy-core

Robert Jakabosky fixed and improved mod-proxy-core alot since the last pre-release:

POSIX Async IO

I added native support for POSIX AIO which might bring async io for more platforms. While Linux AIO is pretty stable the POSIX aio support is pretty experimental. Perhaps it compiles for you.

I tried to compile it on Linux and FreeBSD.

server.network-backend = "posix-aio"

Try it

Check if it compiles and works for you.

    I failed to compile this pre-release on FreeBSD (5.5,6.2). All machines give me the same error message during the make process. server.o(.text+0xc81): In function `lighty_mainloop': /home/passenger/tmp/lighttpd-1.5.0/src/server.c:666: undefined reference to `pthread_create' Could you please kindly give me some clue to fix this up? Thank you in advanced.

    Patch for detecting lua5.1 on debian is not applied to lighttpd 1.5.0.

    Tried getting it to work on a Quad Xeon Xserve running Mac OS X Server 10.4.9. It compiled nicely, starts, but logs the following errors when the network-backend is set to posix-aio: log.c.139: (trace) server started network_posix_aio.c.231: (error) the mmap() failed, no way for a fallback: connections.c.1413: (trace) (network-subsys sent us a fatal-error) network_posix_aio.c.231: (error) the mmap() failed, no way for a fallback: connections.c.1413: (trace) (network-subsys sent us a fatal-error) log.c.139: (trace) server started Works ok with writev.

    lighttpd-1.5.0-r1477 has broken FastCGI protocol. It always use requestId=1. This is out of standard and my FastCGI library (parallel rquests, single treaded, epoll based) doesn't work with it. Please, repair it, bacause 1.4.13 works fine (except no keep-alive).
