Hello everybody,


The solution to my problem came unexpectedly. 

For those who haven't been following my postings, I was trying to upgrade
from Apache 1.3.6 with JServ 1.0b5 to Apache 1.3.12 with JSerr 1.1.2, but
none of my old servlets or the example servets would work. All I got was
"Received empty servlet name" errors and "Baq Requests" to my browser
window.

I was able to switch between the old version and the new version. The old
version simply worked, and the new version simply didn't. I
positively couldn't find anything wrong with my configuration files.

The solution to the problem was quite unexpected: it was some sort of
kernel dependency! I had compiled a new kernel (or more specifically, the
same kernel version 2.2.16 with some new modules built in), but I hadn't
reseted the computer because the old one was working well and I had
important long processes running on my computer.

Unfortunately, my computer suffered an unexpected "hard" shutdown and when
it crawled up, the new Apache started working! It must have been the new
network modules I built in the kernel! 

So, they must have added some new, undocumented dependencies to either
Apache or JServ between those versions. Maybe the dependencies are somehow
related to the new ajpv12-protocol.

I must say that this error was particularly difficult to debug and I hope
no-one ever has to run to it again!
