[AOLSERVER] URL redirection (or is it aliasing)
Hi, I am installing an application that is bundled with aol server. This application expects to be accessed as; http://server_name/* But for reasons out of my control we have to access it as; http://server_name/some_token/* Is there any straightforward way to map/alias/redirect requests in aol server? I have found information on how to redirect on a particular HTP response, virtual hosting to other domains and the c example for mapping URLs to files but they all seem more complicated than I am trying to achieve. - Grant.
[AOLSERVER] ns_rand hangs server (again)
Hello, I seem to have run into a probelm previously reported back in August 2000. Namely, the server hangs when ns_rand is used (the offending function seems to be Ns_DRand in random.c). Rob Mayoff had posted a patch that applied to version 3.0. Would anybody happen to know if this bug is still in the codebase? The function has changed since the first time this bug was posted, although the behaviour appears to have remained. thanks, thomas park __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo!

Jim Davidson checked in a similar, but slightly different, fix for this on 2000/8/25, according to CVS: revision 1.5 date: 2000/08/25 13:47:50; author: jgdavidson; state: Exp; lines: +46 -56 Fixed deadlock between Ns_DRand/Ns_GenSeeds. What version of AOLserver are you using?

It's AOLServer 3.4.2. I'm tracing the binary to pinpoint the deadlock. thomas __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo! Greetings! http://greetings.yahoo.com

I revise my earlier statement. Tracing the binary seems to point to a compiler or library error rather than ns_rand. I'm getting all sorts of random segfaults in places where I really shouldn't. I will check the tools on this machine (new sysadmin set it up) and post again if the indications lead back to AOLServer. thanks, thomas __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo!

[AOLSERVER] Solaris 2.5.1
I've compiled AS3.4.2 on Solaris 2.5.1 successfully, but upon attempting to start it, I'm getting a relocation error: Warning: modload: failed to load '/usr/local/aolserver/bin/nssock.so': 'ld.so.1: bin/nsd76: fatal: relocation error: symbol not found: Ns_RegisterDriver: referenced in /usr/local/aolserver/bin/nssock.so' (Not just nsd76, either -- I figured it couldn't hurt to try both.) What gives? What could I possibly be doing wrong? Michael
Re: [AOLSERVER] Solaris 2.5.1 -- My God.
Well, I figured this one out, actually -- after roughly eight hours of reading the entire Internet, I discovered that -Wl,-E is required as a ld flag in order to export all the symbols in the main program so that nssock.so can use them. ... Is this obsolete 2.5.1 behavior that Solaris 2.6 has dropped? BUT now that nssock and everybody loads fine, the server gets as far as the first idle, upon which it dies ignominiously, which event my good friend truss thoughtfully records: 24485: Incurred fault #6, FLTBOUNDS %pc = 0x00AA18A8 24485:siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x00AA18A8 24485: Received signal #11, SIGSEGV [caught] 24485:siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x00AA18A8 24485: sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, 0xEF6C36E4, 0x) = 0 24485: sigaction(SIGSEGV, 0xE140, 0x) = 0 24485: setcontext(0xE280) 24485: Incurred fault #6, FLTBOUNDS %pc = 0x00AA18A8 24485:siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x00AA18A8 24485: Received signal #11, SIGSEGV [default] 24485:siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x00AA18A8 Now -- what I can't figure out -- according to the project home, the AOL team uses Solaris 2.6 as a test environment. The burning question uppermost in my mind (save one) is HOW DIFFERENT COULD IT BE?!?!?!? (The burning question *truly* uppermost in my mind is of course "how can I extract myself from this situation" and I would greatly appreciate any help at all.)

[AOLSERVER] "quickpath" - lets you run ADP's without the .adp extension (or any extension)
I don't remember who I mentioned it to in the AOLServer chat (I'm 'StealthBrady'), but I have just modified my 'quickpath' module to allow users to run ADP without using any extension such as '.adp'. If you try to configure AOLServer to do this without my module, you may break 'fastpath' - which caches static files and HTML. Furthermore, you may lose the ability to perform 'directory listings' - making the URL "http://www.abcd.com/foo/bar"; map to the file 'foo/bar/index', for example. My module, very simply, handles all of that. I could have just made a patch for AOLServer instead, I suppose, but I figure a module is less intrusive. Anyways, I thought some of you folks might be able to use this in projects you might be doing. E-Mail me and I'll send you the tarball. I'd love to hand the thing off to someone else to maintain (and host the file), if anyone's interested.
