Looking at the bug-system a few days ago we had something like 460 bugs open.
Quite a bunch of them were duplicates of the same issue and others were already fixed in the code and just not closed in the bug-system.
Scanning through the bugs I wrote some more test-cases to verify that the reports were valid and along the way at least these bugs got fixed:
* added dir-listing.set-footer in mod_dirlisting (#1277) * fixed hardcoded font-sizes in mod_dirlisting (#1267) * fixed different ETag length on 32/64 platforms (#1279) * fixed compression of files < 128 bytes by disabling compression (#1241) * fixed mysql server reconnects (#518) * fixed disabled keep-alive for dynamic content with HTTP/1.0 (#1166) * fixed crash on mixed EOL sequences in mod_cgi * fixed key compare (#1287) * fixed invalid char in header values (#1286) * fixed invalid "304 Not Modified" on broken timestamps * fixed endless loop on shrinked files with sendfile() on BSD (#1289) * fixed counter overrun in ?auto in mod_status (#909) * fixed too aggresive caching of nested conditionals (#41) * fixed possible overflow in unix-socket path checks on BSD (#713) * fixed extra Content-Length header on 1xx, 204 and 304 (#1002) * fixed handling of duplicate If-Modified-Since to return 304 * fixed extracting status code from NPH scripts (#1125) * removed config-check if passwd files exist (#1188)
Now the bug-count is at 413, a start.
We had enabled spamfilter in //trac.lighttpd.net/ long ago and it was doing fine blocking lots of spam messages, but I didn’t notice that it blocked some ham messages too by rasing “your ip is blacklisted by sc.surbl.org” error.
I appreciate your help when you try hard clicking the submit button for wiki/tickets and am sorry for blocking you.
I spent some time tweaking karma settings in trac spamfilter recently. It was a bit hard to get what karma is even by asking the ppl in #trac, until i read the source. Anyway, it looks better now, and we’ll keep watching the monitor and see if there’s something mis-blocked, and tweak the settings accordingly. You may also register and login to get pass the spam checking.
You provided feedback. We listened.
Thanks.
darix released a bug-fix release for 1.4.x
www.lighttpd.net/2007/7/24/1-4-16-let-s-ship-it
It contains fixes for crashing bugs discovered by over the last weeks and we encourage to upgrade from earlier releases to 1.4.16. Especially lighttpd-SA2007-03 should convince you to upgrade. It can crash all lighttpd 1.4.x releases. In 1.5.0 this is fixed as we replace the parser by a generated one and replacing the hand-crafted one in 1.4.×.
Baby-steps, …
As we are running this release on lighttpd.net it is time to push it out to more testers.
Download: www.lighttpd.net/download/lighttpd-1.5.0-r1857.tar.gz
Changes:
Last weekend I was at the PHP Unconference and gave a talk about lighttpd. Perhaps we will see a mod_auth_backend_"openid":http://www.unconf-hh.de/index.php?title=OpenID in the near future …
A nice small unconference with some nice non-talks about Tagging and University meets Business. While the quantity of attendance was a bit low, the quality was high.
Anyway, my talk covers lighttpd, 1.5.0 and the cool modules around flv, secdownload, … and is available as PDF and SWF
All the lighttpd.net domains (blog, trac, www, xcache, upload, …) are now running lighttpd 1.5.0-trunk. It took some debugging to sort out problems with the way trac wants to handle PATH_INFO 1841
and how ruby handles fastcgi-keepalive requests via Unix-Sockets 1850 1849
In case you see that one of the sites is down, ping me (weigon) on IRC. The server is running in valgrind and should provide enough information to fix the problem.
… or eating our’s own dog food.
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 :)
darix, our brave maintainer of the 1.4.x branch, just uploaded lighttpd-1.4.×.r1745
Please give it a test as we want to push out .14 in the next days.
