Apache 2.0.42 Released

i-got-a-long-name writes "The Apache HTTP Server Project is proud to announce the fifth public release of Apache 2.0. This is primarily a bug-fix release, including updates to the experimental caching module, the removal of several memory leaks, and fixes for several segfaults, one of which could have been used as a denial-of-service against mod_dav. A complete list of the changes since 2.0.40 are available.". Just keep in mind that if you upgrade be prepared to recompile all of your modules since binary-compatibility is no longer the case. Which I am sure will help with the adoption rate.

Ack!

I had one online for 4 days now.....
Didn't even realize I was using a pre-slash version :-)

(I have proof but Im afraid to post an url here.... poor little 4mbits won't hold!)

Re:When?

[Fweeky]

The real question is when it will become mature. That's probably when people start using it and pushing it there with bug reports etc ;)

it out...

PHP has a apache2(apache2.dll in sapi folder) module, but you have to remember it not "production" quality...

and configuration has to be tweaked to make it work....

i have ran php(api mod) on apache2 on win2000 for more the 3 mouth now

great but..

this is only the fifth public release of apache 2.0 in two years, since 2.0 was released. why the slow releases? distros are updated more frequently. just thought it was interesting, only the 5th public release, and thought i'd point that out. i really dont care...just making an observation.

PHP 4.2.3 and Apache 2.0.42 does work

[quasilogic]

I read a comment by one poster saying that PHP 4.2.3 did not work with Apache 2.0.42 on win32. This is not true! Once you have Apache up and running, install PHP 4.2.3 (or what ever the latest PHP distribution is). If Apache wont start, follow these directions.

1) Move php.ini to your {winnt} directory.
2) Move php4ts.dll and php4ts.lib to your {system32} directory.
3) Go to Snapshot [php.net] and download php4-win32-latest.zip
4) Extract the file php4apache2.dll from the downloaded file to your folder, overwrite the old file.
5) Restart Apache!

When ever PHP seems to break the latest Apache release just repeat this process. If this still does not work try asking for help over at Install Forum [phpbuilder.com]
