# Line 1  Line 1 
1    ** Changes from 0.1.2 to 0.1.3 -
2     * Added DefaultCharset configuration directive. The default
3       character set given, will be appended to all text mime types.
4     * Corrected bug in KeepAlive usage in HTTP/1.1, which made the
5       server to ignore the value sent by the client.
6     * CGIAction can now be used even if HIC CGIs are disabled.
7     * Some optimizations in HTTP header parsing.
8     * Added a more complete mime.types in examples/
9       contributed by <voidnull@qnet.pl>.
10    
11    ** Changes from 0.1.1 to 0.1.2 - 08/01/2003
12     * Allow running the server as root, if explicitly stated in
13       configuration file. Patch by James Harr <james@grickle.org>
14     * Better pthreads detection.
15     * Outputs to error log if non executable CGIs are found.
16     * Does not close HTTP/1.1 connections by default.
17     * The current behavour is to demand the Host header in HTTP/1.1
18       requests.
19     * Added support for CGIAction CGIs. There are just like CGIs
20       but they are not executed. They are parsed using a given program.
21     * Added init script for redhat in contrib/redhat/rc.hydra,
22       contributed by <voidnull@qnet.pl>.
23    
24    ** Changes from 0.1.0 to 0.1.1 - 17/12/2002
25     * Corrected bug in Keep-Alive mode when SSL or TLS was enabled.
26     * Fixed unexpected timeout in first connection on an idle server.
27    
28    ** Changes from 0.0.10 to 0.1.0 - 16/11/2002
29     * No changes. This is the final release by me --Nikos
30    
31    ** Changes from 0.0.9 to 0.0.10 - 08/11/2002
32     * Corrected bug in error logging.
33     * Use the TMPDIR environment variable instead of TMP to get
34       the temporary directory.
35    
36    ** Changes from 0.0.8 to 0.0.9 - 27/10/2002
37     * Long offsets are not used by default.
38     * Use of pipes instead of temporary files, if the post data sent
39       are less than PIPE_BUF.
40     * More consistent logging. The server's hostname or "unknown"
41       are prepended to the log message.
42     * Corrected redirection/aliases behaviour, to match the documented one.
43     * SSLParamsRefresh was renamed to MaintenanceInterval and is more
44       generic, since it includes some server cleanups.
45     * Added file access control lists per virtual host. Based on patch for
46       Boa by Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
47     * Added the ability to disable HIC threads by using 0 in the
48       HICThreads configuration directive.
49     * Hydra now uses poll by default. Select is available using the --with-select
50       configure option.
51    
52    ** Changes from 0.0.7 to 0.0.8 - 25/10/2002
53     * Better pthread detection.
54     * Better detection of dlopen call.
55     * Some changes to compile in gcc 2.95
56     * Added support for FreeBSD's sendfile (untested).
57    [Ported from Boa 0.94.14rc1]
58     * add new state, IOSHUFFLE, which utilizes sendfile (or
59       emulates it using the request's buffer, otherwise)
60     * make the default socket size 32K.  The client_stream_size stays constant
61       at 8K, and the new 'buffer' size is 4K
62       Note also that the new code uses the "default" socket buffer size
63       it obtains with the first accept()ed socket.
64     * make default behavior be to leave stderr alone, but tie it
65       to cgilog otherwise
66     * add [optional, Linux-only] check for sendfile system call
67     * use --disable-sendfile to disable sendfile support
68       sendfile support for files > 100K is default, now.
69       It's significantly faster and easier than the alternative
70     * umask ~0770 before exec
71     * tie stdout to the access_log, unless there is no access_log,
72       in which case tie it to /dev/null
73     * use sensible defaults for umask (077) and (027 for CGI)
74     * add and document new parameters (CGILog and CGIumask)
75     * vast improvements to the cgi-test.cgi program, by Jon Nelson
76       and Landon Curt Noll.
77     * next 3 items by Don Mahurin (patches modified somewhat):
78     * pidfile patch
79     * default mime_types patch
80     * NCSA environment environment variables wrapped in
81       #ifdef USE_NCSA_CGI_ENV
82     * fix some escaping issues with the directory indexer
83       (Ulf Harnhammar)
84     * backport poll support from 0.95
85    
86    ** Changes from 0.0.6 to 0.0.7 - 10/10/2002
87     * Added support for large files in 32 bit systems.
88     * Added support for SSL_* variables in CGIs.
89     * Added options in configuration file, to request and verify
90       a client certificate.
91     * The headers of HIC-CGIs are now parsed by the server.
92     * Corrected behavour in SIGHUP signal handling, to reread
93       the SSL related variables.
94     * Children and HIC threads are now killed using a signal, to avoid
95       unexpected errors, and memory leaks.
96    
97  ** Changes from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 - 03/10/2002  ** Changes from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 - 03/10/2002
