 The debian-apache group has both the necssary perl, apache, and C skills

 I'd be happy to see it in the debian-apache SVN repo, though, with a

 to spread the blame as thinly as possibly.

Sounds emminently sane to me - I have no real interest in mod_perl, but will
be happy to contribute apache knowledge as required.

apache2.2 uploaded to experimental

2006-08-15 Thread Thom May
Hi all,

As of today, Apache 2.2 is available from experimental (packagename:
apache2-mpm-{worker,prefork} etc). New features include LFS support, and
improved caching. For more info, see:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/new_features_2_2.html and
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/upgrading.html . Note especially the
changes in authentication.

This version is not yet ready for unstable, and hence also not for etch,
because it requires more testing. All maintainers of apache modules are
encouraged to test their modules against apache2.2 from experimental, and
upload tested modules to experimental. Please note that it is not possible
to build a module for both apache 2.0 and apache2.2 from the same source 
package.
Authentication modules especially probably require changes. Success/failure
stories from Apache module maintainers are welcome on the debian-apache
mailinglist.

Thanks to Canonical for sponsoring the sprint that got us 99% of the way
done, and (almost) everyone else for being patient over the long wait.

Thanks,
The Debian Apache team (Adam, Fabio, Thom, Tollef)

Hi,
it's likely that you have an erroneous config, rather than this being a bug
in apache. If basic auth was broken, I assure you that we'd have noticed by
now.
The problem you're reporting is often a symptom of having multiple auth
providers loaded; have a look at /etc/apache-ssl/modules.conf or attach it
here and check you don't have mod_auth_sys or mod_auth_system installed.

 Hello Thom,
 
 Having read your mail, I agree with your opinion that the Debian apache2
 package should remain largely untainted.
 
 There have been a few abortive attempts by the Metux MPM community to
 increase awareness of the Metux MPM, but admittedly these have generally
 stopped short of doing any extra work in order to justify inclusion into
 the Apache 2 tree.
 
 Do you have any suggestions as to how Metux MPM could increase the
 chances of inclusion into mainstream Apache 2?
 
They should send useful patches to the dev list (both apr and httpd), make 
their build system and
everything that they do absolutely compatible with the upstream way of doing
it (last I looked, metux required automake to build, which is 100%
guaranteed not to be accepted upstream) etc

 I'm not looking for the easiest package example, I already looked at

 think it's a good idea to provide a choice for the user to
 enable/disable the module via debconf at install time and via
 dpkg-reconfigure. If there isn't a standard way like with apache1.x, I
 will do my debconf template myself (enable/disable modue? yes/no, then
 use a2enmod or a2dismod).
 
 There is also a script called update-apache2-modules. Should I use
 this one instead of a2*mod. Is there a standard way for looking if a
 module is enabled (other than -e /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/load).
 
u-a-m is a work in process, which will be the standard way of handling
modules.
It's pretty close, but not there yet. I'm hoping to have some time the next
couple of days to work on it and test it etc.

Ok. so, you're reporting a bug that basically says when i request a PHP

It seems that the real bug you're reporting is, 'php should deactivate

 Another data point. Between 2.0.49 and 2.0.50, you've split the build
 sequence of mpm-worker and the other mpms in debian/rules. Unlike
 -worker, the rest now is built without AP2_CONFARGS. No idea whether
 this change was intentional, but in any case it breaks significant
 functionality. So this bug affects prefork, perchild, and threadpool
 (and I don't quite see why you reassigned it to -common).

Bug#247458: [htpasswd] Creates corrupt htpasswd files

2004-05-05 Thread Thom May
Package: apache-utils
Version: 1.3.29.0.2-6
Severity: grave
Tags: sid

When htpasswd creates a new htpasswd file, it encounters what appears to
be a memory corruption bug. This does not occur when updating an old
file, and indeed using htpasswd again on the same file and username
fixes the problem.

Bug#247229: apache2-common: -S option segfaults when NameVirtualHost specifies port

 Package: apache2-common

 I had a NameVirtualHost *:80 directive in my apache2.conf.  I tried
 running 'apache2 -S' to debug my vhosts and got a segfault.  Changing it
 to NameVirtualHost * fixed the segfault.  I can provide a core file if
 needed.
 
Just a backtrace with gdb would be a good start.

 Maybe we should check for that at install time and pop up a debconf note?

patch to implement run-part-ish behaviour

2004-03-08 Thread Thom May
Hi,
as noted on irc, we should exclude .dpkg-* files, and also dot-files etc.
This is a patch to do this; please can you review,test and confirm it seems 
valid? (I don't have a way to commit on debian-apache, so please apply if it
looks good.)

Bug#154447: Is this problem still reproducible?

Are you still able to reproduce this problem with current kernels and
apache?
We are currently triaging bugs to prepare for a release of Debian, and would
like to prune our bugs list of old bugs that can no longer be reproduced.

This is not a release critical bug.
It does have security implications but it is not a major security flaw nor

   Joerg Dorchain wrote:
apache2-common depends on ssl-cert. This is bad, as in the install
dialogs it is not clear from context that the user is asked questions
for his https config. Besides it is superfluous, as the created
apache.pem file is not referenced in the supplied config files.
In my case it is even annoying, as I already have my own working
certificate, and the apache.pem file is placed in the middle of my
certificate directories. 

I therefore recommend removing the dependency on ssl-cert. As a
suggested package it is IMHO better referenced.

  Oh, yeah. what a fantastic argument. I don't want it, and it's slightly
  broken, so let's rip it out totally rather than fix it.
 
 Well, that's actually _not_ the OP's argument. Dependencies, in my very humble
 understanding, express that certain parts of the system need other parts
 to operate. I really don't see why apache2-common needs ssl-cert to operate
 (esp. considering that, according to your own comments it doesn't even
 depend on any worker module -- hey, we won't be able to run apache2, but we'll
 do it encrypted :-) Why not make it a 'suggests'?
 
Well, when I get round to fixing the config file to use the generated cert,
and ssl-cert to not suck, I'd prefer for encryption to work out of the box.
I might ask if the installee wants to create an ssl cert tho.

  That sounds dangerous; as I understand it, it's necessary for everything
  that depends on libapr0 to use the same version of Berkeley DB.
  
It's a really bad idea, yes.

  On a similar note, though, db4.2 is now in unstable, so will the next
  version of apache2 use it? Uploads of new upstream versions of
  subversion are waiting for this to happen. (I scanned the debian-apache

 Thom committed a change to libdb4.2-dev to apache2 HEAD[1] yesterday,
 IIRC.

Correct. I need to write some debconf notification since the upgrade is
manual and potentially destructive. Blah.

 It's not a bug, it's a feature. It works exactly as documented. If your

 This is admittedly not trivial. But it's how it works.
 
Um, eww. Oh well. It'd be nice if in the future you could tell update-rc.d
to do it for you - something like:
update-rc.d -u name new-seq old-seq and only have update-rc.d do it if

Hi.
so, you don't give details of what changes you made to your config, whether
you had anything in syslog, which mpm you're using, nor did you attach your
config. Am I supposed to grow psychic powers and mystically divine your
problem?
Unless you give me drastically more info, this bug report is closing in 12
hours.
