Re: Apache-Test subdirectory has moved
yay, php docs at perl.apache.org :) they may be more popular, but I think we still win when it comes to open-source altruism :) sure. but what I'm hoping to accomplish is a more coherent set of documentation for Apache-Test that transcends what we've done (and documented well) over in mod_perl-land. so shuffling things about would help that I think. you? I'm all for it! cool. I'm going to spend some time over the next few days trying to get this situated, then. should there be Apache-Test/dist too? or should the CPAN distribution be sufficient? we can do that, although http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-Test/ is just as good. but if we want to mirror the way we do mod_perl then we can have dist/ as well, no problem. also we may want to add a /Apache-Test/snapshot for svn-impaired users. that's a good idea. I'll see if I can find the snapshot scripts or talk to whoever I need to to get that setup. --Geoff

[STATUS] (httpd-test: flood) Thu Feb 10 06:05:01 2005
flood STATUS: -*-text-*- Last modified at [$Date: 2004-11-24 19:36:41 -0500 (Wed, 24 Nov 2004) $] Release: 1.0: Released July 23, 2002 milestone-03: Tagged January 16, 2002 ASF-transfer: Released July 17, 2001 milestone-02: Tagged August 13, 2001 milestone-01: Tagged July 11, 2001 (tag lost during transfer) RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS: * Everything needs to work perfectly Other bugs that need fixing: * I get a SIGBUS on Darwin with our examples/round-robin-ssl.xml config, on the second URL. I'm using OpenSSL 0.9.6c 21 dec 2001. * iPlanet sends Content-length - there is a hack in there now to recognize it. However, all HTTP headers need to be normalized before checking their values. This isn't easy to do. Grr. * OpenSSL 0.9.6 Segfaults under high load. Upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.6b. Aaron says: I just found a big bug that might have been causing this all along (we weren't closing ssl sockets). How can I reproduce the problem you were seeing to verify if this was the fix? * SEGVs when /tmp/.rnd doesn't exist are bad. Make it configurable and at least bomb with a good error message. (See Doug's patch.) Status: This is fixed, no? * If APR has disabled threads, flood should as well. We might want to have an enable/disable parameter that does this also, providing an error if threads are desired but not available. * flood needs to clear pools more often. With a long running test it can chew up memory very quickly. We should just bite the bullet and create/destroy/clear pools for each level of our model: farm, farmer, profile, url/request-cycle, etc. * APR needs to have a unified interface for ephemeral port exhaustion, but aparently Solaris and Linux return different errors at the moment. Fix this in APR then take advantage of it in flood. * The examples/analyze-relative scripts fail when there are less than 5 unique URLs. Other features that need writing: * More analysis and graphing scripts are needed * Write robust tool (using tethereal perhaps) to take network dumps and convert them to flood's XML format. Status: Justin volunteers. Aaron had a script somewhere that is a start. Jacek is working on a Mozilla application, codename Flood URL bag (much like Live HTTP Headers) and small HTTP proxy. * Get chunked encoding support working. Status: Justin volunteers. He got sidetracked by the httpd implementation of input filtering and never finished this. This is a stopgap until apr-serf is completed. * Maybe we should make randfile and capath runtime directives that come out of the XML, instead of autoconf parameters. * We are using apr_os_thread_current() and getpid() in some places when what we really want is a GUID. The GUID will be used to correlate raw output data with each farmer. We may wish to print a unique ID for each of farm, farmer, profile, and url to help in postprocessing. * We are using strtol() in some places and strtoll() in others. Pick one (Aaron says strtol(), but he's not sure). * Validation of responses (known C-L, specific strings in response) Status: Justin volunteers * HTTP error codes (ie. teach it about 302s) Justin says: Yeah, this won't be with round_robin as implemented. Need a linked list-based profile where we can insert new URLs into the sequence. * Farmer (Single-thread, multiple profiles) Status: Aaron says: If you have threads, then any Farmer can be run as part of any Farm. If you don't have threads, you can currently only run one Farmer named Joe right now (this will be changed so that if you don't have threads, flood will attempt to run all Farmers in serial under one process). * Collective (Single-host, multiple farms) This is a number of Farms that have been fork()ed into child processes. * Megaconglomerate (Multiple hosts each running a collective) This is a number of Collectives running on a number of hosts, invoked via RSH/SSH or maybe even some proprietary mechanism. * Other types of urllists a) Random / Random-weighted b) Sequenced (useful with cookie propogation) c) Round-robin d) Chaining of the above strategies Status: Round-robin is complete. * Other types of reports Status: Aaron says: simple reports are functional. Justin added a new type that simply prints the approx. timestamp when the test was run, and the result as OK/FAIL; it is called easy reports (see flood_easy_reports.h).

RE: loading mod_perl first?

}
This solution looks good to me, but should be mod_embperl.c instead of
Embperl.c.
The reason why Embperl.so needs to loaded in the Apache config, is that it
adds Apache configuration directives to Apache, so you can write
Embperl_XXX foo
Instead of
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_XXX foo
In Apache 1.3 this works without explicitly loading Embperl.so, just via
PerlModule, but for Apache 2 Embperl.so needs to be loaded via LoadModule,
otherwise it's to late for adding config directives. So the problem will
occur with all modules that adds configuration directives to Apache and you
are right that is not common. The only one I know is AxKit, which currently
runs only on mod_perl 1.
Gerald
P.S. I am currently on the German Perl Workshop, so I cannot test. I will
test this change when I am back.
Re: loading mod_perl first?
This solution looks good to me, but should be mod_embperl.c instead of Embperl.c. well, I went to the embperl site and added this to my httpd.conf LoadModule embperl_module /tmp/Embperl.so and things worked out as expected [ debug] /tmp/Embperl.so is already absolute [ debug] /tmp/Embperl.so successfully resolved to existing file /tmp/Embperl.so [ debug] Found: embperl_module = Embperl.c [ debug] Skipping LoadModule of Embperl.c is this not a correct setup? or it is for apache2 and not apache 1.3? --Geoff

Looks like you done the right thing. As said I am not at home and cannot test at the moment, so I told you mod_embperl.c from my mind, but it looks like I am wrong. I will check this next week when I am back and give you a feedback. Gerald
