Short: Thttpd v2.21b - a small and fast WEB server with PHP4 support
Author: acme@acme.com
Type: dev/gg
Uploaded: louise@louise.amiga.hu (LouiSe)
Url: http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd
*** THIS IS THE MOST SIMPLE PHP4/WEB SERVER SOLUTION FOR AMIGAOS ***
- requires ixemul.library and ixnet.library (v48.2 recommended)
- requires running a TCP/IP stack (AmiTC, Miami, etc)
- no other tools (like GeekGadgets) needed!
- thttpd is a very small and fast WEB server...
- this version supports PHP v4.2.3 (compiled by LouiSe)
- no need for installation, just unpack the archive into a directory
and run "starthttpd" script from a CLI/Shell window (thttd will run
in background!)
- just store your web pages into the "usr.local.www" directory...

-----------------------------------------
New in version 2.21b:
o Fix for lingering-close problem from Taner Halicioglu - on some systems, it was hanging the server.
New in version 2.21:
o ANSI compile nits in timers.h and libhttpd.c. I thought I had already fixed these.
o Two small fixes to USR1 signal handling. Should be more reliable now.
o Fixed the "throttle sending count was negative" bug.
o 503 Service Overloaded errors were not getting logged.
o New throttling syslogs.
o Tuning tweaks to throttling, it's much more accurate now.
o Tweak to the sample log-rotation script.
o Allow trailing whitespace on the HTTP request line - it violates the HTTP/1.1 spec, but it's harmless, and at least one client (TiVo's v1.3 http_get [not related to my own http_get]) generates it
.
o Changed the capitalization on some HTTP headers we generate, to interoperate with a client (yes, the same one) that is too stoopid to do case-insensitive matching.
o Pass Accept-Language headers to CGIs.
o Make log entries at the end of a connection instead of the beginning, so that the byte count is correct.
o Off-by-one error in base-64 decoding (Archie Cobbs).
o Updated man page throttling section for the wildcard change in 2.17.
o Couple of fixes for top-level redirection, from KIKUCHI Takahiro.
o New option to hide thttpd's version, from Paul Fox.
o Changed include of <sys/time.h> to <time.h>.
o Fixed cross-site scripting bug relating to the built-in error pages.
o Changed the mmap cache to use ctime instead of mtime, to better handle permissions changes.
o VHOST_DIRLEVELS patch, from Vadim Belman.
o ssi missing-header bugfix, from Marcel Telka.
o Hack to deal with garbage characters after POST data generated by some browsers.
o Added -g global passwd file option, suggested by Craig Leres.
o Robustness and performance improvements for mmap cache, from Evan Jones.
o kqueue support, from Niels Provos.
o If both select and poll are available, always use poll.
o Don't syslog "Connection reset by peer" errors.
o If the logfile is "/dev/null", don't bother logging at all.
o The mmap cache now tries to keep the total number of maps below a configurable parameter. See DESIRED_MAX_MAPPED_FILES.
o Fix for garbled packets causing needless 400 errors, from John Salmon.
o Improved some status-checking and error-reporting.
o Redid the debugging stats syslog messages, and made them show up on a SIGUSR2 as well as by timer.
