PRE-RELEASE: lighttpd-1.5.0-r1811.tar.gz

We are now running lighttpd 1.5.0-r1811 at lighttpd.net next to the lighttpd-1.4.13 [official debian] package.

This is one way to say that this is a Release Candidate and that we want to expose it to more testers out there. Update: lighttpd.net is running on 1.5.0-trunk/

As working demo you have:

Yes, that’s mod_uploadprogress in action :)

I've been toying with the r1811 and mod_uploadprogress in a rails app I'm working on and for some reason the GET to /progress causes lighty to just die... Any ideas or pointers as to how I can determine the reason? I am on a Mac with OS X 10.4.9 PPC if that helps or matters...

lighttpd is BSD licensed.

Just wondering if you would consider releasing lighttpd with a bsd license so that apache could be ripped from openbsd and replaced with lighty

I built some RPMs from the above sources, for RHEL/CentOS 4 and 5. Read about it, and grab the binaries and sources here: http://www.kevinworthington.com:8181/index.php/2007/05/02/lighttpd-150-r1811-rpms-for-rhel-and-centos-4-and-5/

i am testing mod_uploadprogress. it works if i have a static html. e.g. /upload.html?323123213 (323123213 is the uuid that gets posted) but if i have the same page served from a cgi e.g. /main.cgi?upload?323123213 it gets stuck. i reckon it's the uuid parsing error. any pointers how i could fix this? thanks.

Trying the AJP module: server.modules += ("mod_proxy_core","mod_proxy_backend_ajp13") $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/do/|.jsp$" { proxy-core.balancer = "round-robin" proxy-core.protocol = "ajp13" proxy-core.backends = ( "localhost:8009" ) proxy-core.max-pool-size = 100 } It seems that the server will halt after running for a while. Here is the last line of error log: mod_proxy_core.c.2464: (trace) connect(127.0.0.1:8009) timed out, closing backend connection Then I shut lighttpd and restart Apache, everything works. Any suggestion?

$PHYSICAL["existing-path"] =~ "\.php$" { ... } instead of $HTTP["url"] ... fixes the problem of check-local = 1. This is documented in the wiki. Sorry, for not adding it to the changelog.

This look good but can you create something like mod_uploadprogress for 1.4.15 because in this moment I can`t use 1.5 and also I can`t get upload progress for 1.4.15 and that is very bad! Thanks.

Ok found it ;) proxy-core.check-local is deprecated. I removed it in the config and everything seems to work. Btw: I have been using the previous 4 beta's with mod_uploadprogress on a website with 30000 unique users/day. Works just great...

Why isnt there a ChangeLog or Changes included in this version. I am using previous beta with very good results, but after upgrading lighttpd doesnt want to start. Giving me "Configuration contains deprecated keys. Going down" errors, now I have to strip my config file to find what is deprecated in this version..

Hi Jan, I found another bug. When I use alias.url to alias a directory, it works but failed to find any index file defined in index-file.names.

At last we have working beta! Thanks! Where can I find what bugs have been already found? Or it's too early to speak about? :)

Not all issues are bugs. Some are enhancement which might be pushed to later releases. The assignment to a milestone is not fixed, but it should give you an idea how much time there is to wait until the next release.

Travis, you might need to differ there a bit more. In 1.4.x, there are some components which don't exist in 1.5.0 any more, so some of those bugs might be gone. There may be other cases in which 1.4.x-bugs don't affect 1.5.0 at all. I guess quite some passages may already be fixed/rewritten/whatever in 1.5.0, but not properly fixed in the 1.4-branch.

How do patches work?

I notice 1.5 only has 6 more defects to fix until it's released, though I notice 1.4.16 still has 18 more bug fixes until it's released.

I would assume those 18 defect in the 1.4.x branch also affect the 1.5 branch.

So will 1.5 be release when all 24 (6 from 1.5 and 18 from 1.4.16) are patched or just when the remain 6 are fixed?

Hi Jan, I'm now using FreeBSD 6.2 to compile lighttpd-1.5.0-r1811. But it shows the following error message: network_gthread_aio.c:168:2: #error hmm, does your system support mmap(/dev/zero) or mmap(MAP_ANON) network_gthread_aio.c: In function `network_gthread_aio_read_thread': network_gthread_aio.c:101: warning: unused variable `mmap_fd'
