Trying to trace a spinning httpd
Apache 1.3.19/Mod-perl 1.25 under Linux 2.2.19 Hi, I am trying to better understand Apache/mod-perl behaviour under this scenario. I have some CGI's which connect to various servers listening on different ports and collect the output and push them to the clients. Whilst the data is streaming from the server to the CGI, I kill the server. After a few seconds, I see httpd take up increasing amount of CPU time [it can go up to 90% of CPU]. straceing the httpd process shows that it is continuously in a read call to the file descriptor representing the connection it was last in I ran httpd in single instance mode [httpd -X] and attached gdb to it. I sourced .gdbinit and typed curinfo This is what I get (gdb) curinfo Attempt to extract a component of a value that is not a structure pointer. A backtrace shows this (gdb) bt #0 0x4015eab4 in __libc_read () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x401a81cc in ??

AFAIK: there is a warning in the configure-script of php4 as well. It tells you to use your local mysql-includes when using other modules, like mod_perl... Greetings, Remco Schaar
Re: install perl-win32-bin-0.6.exe on win98
I'm using perl-win32-bin-0.6.exe package, so I use the Perl and Apache binaries that come with it. When everything is unpacked I move the perl subdirectory to c:\Prel, the apache subdirectory to c:\apache and the openssl directory to c:\openssl. When everything is done as it's explained on the installation readme (I think so, but I'm not 100% sure),I try to execute apache as: Apache.exe -f conf\httpd.conf-perl and the error "cannot load /apache/modules/apachemoduleperl into server" appears.

[OT] 128 bit encryption and IE
Hi all... sorry for the OT, but has anyone figured out how to tell whether a browser supports 56 or 128 bit encryption? Apparently, users of IE with 56 bit, when entering a 128 bit page, get the standard Cannot Find Server error page with little in the way directions to help the EU know to upgrade. has anyone battled this and come up with an elegant solution? thanks --Geoff

Reading the environment in block
Hello. I'm trying to isolate the developper environment from each other so that when someone mess up the server, the others just simply don't know that something happened. So, every developpers will have their own webserver. Since I want to be able to have potentially different copies of Perl modules (like, say, two developpers are working on things that are in the same modules), I can't simply load different virtual host for each developpers : they have their own copy of Apache+mod_perl. The way I've setup whole thing is like that : a script name restart is called with some parameters telling him to reload one or all the developpers environment, or the "testing" copy. This script would have some environments variables called SITE_USER and SITE_USER_PORT that will give me the value (read in a file defining the different users) of the username (and by the same way the files path) and the port where the user should work. My problem is that my envirnoment variables are not set. If I do a Dumper(\%ENV), I only got values for the variables TZ, GATEWAY_INTERFACE, MOD_PERL and PATH. (I do double-check that my variables where well setup). I've read in the Eagle book that the environment is cleaned up on server start, but I tought that I could read it in "raw" form in the perl configuration... The only way I still see to make it work is having my "restart" script saving the current user/port in a file and letting the section read it's configuration from there. But it look so patchy... Is there another way to do this?

Re: [OT] 128 bit encryption and IE
Another thing you might consider if Verisign will sell them is to get a Global Server certificate. They are designed for banks. It used to be that if you were a financial institution you could get this special server certificate for SSL which would trigger a 'step up' in cripplied netscape and IE to 128 bit encryption. Now, with strong encryption walls having been broken down in the US, maybe global certs no longer qualify you to have to be a bank?

OK I have ben RTFMing for about 5 hours now and I did find a fix for part of my problem It seems that Mac browsers (IE 4.5 and an old AOL that I know of) are having trouble viewing our HTML producing CGI scripts that use a function called &CGI::start_html() Apparently (recently in CGI.pm) there has been a change where the CGI::start_html includes the following This tag is reaking havoc on some browsers on Mac and possibly others.

Thawte (or verisign-lite ) sells them also, they are called (IIRC) SGC - Server Gated Crypto keys. I use them for our private corporate extranet web servers. My company is certainly not a financial institution, but in the healthcare industry. Be aware, they only work for newer versions of the "crippled" browser, very old versions of Netscape and IE will __not__ step up, so to speak.

Normally, the SSL server will simply downgrade the key size and talk appropriately with 56 bit browsers. However, in configuring your SSL server you can limit what ciphers and key sizes will be considered acceptable. Consider allowing your server to use non 128-bit ciphers. Under mod_ssl configure the SSLCipherSuite configuration directive appropriately. (Also look at the SSLRequire directive if this does not solve things.) Docs here: http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_reference.html#ToC9 To determine the cipher currently being used, look at the environment under mod_ssl. My server shows me this for a sample connection: SSL_CIPHER=RC4-MD5 SSL_CIPHER_ALGKEYSIZE=128 SSL_CIPHER_EXPORT=false SSL_CIPHER_USEKEYSIZE=128 Docs here: http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_reference.html#ToC25 I'm sure you can build whatever system you need on top of this.

Sections in Apache Config

You could try PerlPassEnv: PerlPassEnv SITE_USER PerlPassEnv SITE_USER_PORT ...but the solution I've used is to have the startup script dynamically build a configuration based on a configuration "template". In fact, the script doesn't even live in /etc anywhere -- it's part of the CVS checked out area that each developer has individually. The config template is just a standard Apache config file with special @@ tokens in it like the Apache *.orig files: ServerRoot @@SERVERROOT@@ Port @@SERVERPORT@@ The script changes these tokens when (re)starting Apache, and runs "apache -f /tmp/httpd-[user]-[port].conf". It also takes things a step further in that it automatically calculates a port number based on the value of the "server root", by running it through "sum". This way, you don't need to decide on a port for everybody -- they just check out a copy of the website and start it. If they want to have another copy of the website, let's say under ~/website-hacking, that's fine -- it'll decide on a different port automatically. I can send the startup script and config template if you want to see what I mean. > The only way I still see to make it work is having my "restart" script > saving the current user/port in a file and letting the section read > it's configuration from there.

If you set your site to accept only 128 bit ciphers, this is what will happen because the browsers that are capable of upgrading from 56 to 128 bit encryption do this by first connecting at 56 and the renegotiating at 128.
