darix just moved the svn-trees around. Now trunk/ is containing the code for 1.5.0 (formerly known as branches/lighttpd-merge-1.4.x) and branches/lighttpd-1.4.x is taking care of the 1.4.x series (formerly branches/lighttpd-1.4.11-ssl-fixes).
r1352 got commited to the 1.4.x-branch to fix a crash in 1.4.12.
I’m very proud to announce the release of 1.4.12.
After 8 pre-releases and several cross-compiles and test-runs no new bugs were found and you should have a solid and stable release in your hands.
Over the 1.4.11 was available for download (03/2006 - now) the number of
lighty installations raised from 27 103 to 120 442 according to
netcraft.com. That’s amazing. It was important for us to create a
release is good enough to replace 1.4.11.
This release fixes several long-standing bugs like
ssl.use-sslv2 and ssl.cipher-list for all who have to
comply with PCIand only added a 2 really new features:
mod_cmlOn mod_cml:
mod_cml is deprecated from now onmod_magnet provides the same functionality and more with a
cleaner syntax and in a more generic formDownload:
lighttpd-1.4.12.tar.gzhttps://download.lighttpd.net/lighttpd/releases-1.4.x/
MD5: 8f6756452138f5da384251f849b329f2
Ok, a last pre-release before the final .12 release:
Most important are:
Please try this release as hard as possible before we have a final release.
Over the last evenings I helped several lighty users to tune their application stack. Instead of telling the same story over and over again I wrote it down into a wiki page:
https://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/wiki/Docs_PerformanceFastCGI
Over time this will be the main source for application tuning, hints and secrets.
It has been about 5 months since the first announcement of XCache. But many of you may still wonder how XCache “looks” like. So i’ve spent some hours and finally setup Administration demo page and Coverage viewer demo page
XCache was stable (the cacher stufs), but now becomes more stable (installing, configuring), and seems a bit hot recently if you may google for “php” +”xcache” :)
Thanks for your support and encourage, XCache will goes on and on..
In mod_cml is dead, long live mod_cml I gave some hints about mod_cml going to die soon. With lighttpd 1.4.12 there will be a new module called mod_magnet can attract every request and decide on its further execution.
If you want you implement most of our current modules via mod_magnet, e.g.:
A new pre-release has been uploaded with more fixes than the last release and with a new, hot module: mod_magnet . It is the promised replacement for mod_cml.
Update replaced r1303 with r1309
The forum just got migrated to the new lighty-server. As long as the DNS is not update and as fallback, the old lighty server is proxying to the new host.
As a side-effect, registering a account in the forum works again. The trac on the new host also sends out notifications on ticket updates again.
The 1.4.11 release need a maintainance package. This pre-release is taking the 1.4.11 code and fixes:
and adds:
