-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Apache HTTP Server 2.2.0 Released The Apache Software Foundation and The Apache HTTP Server Project are pleased to announce the release of version 2.2.0 of the Apache HTTP Server ("Apache"). We consider this release to be the best version of Apache available, and encourage users of all prior versions to upgrade. Apache HTTP Server 2.2.0 is available for download from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apache 2.2 offers numerous enhancements, improvements, and performance boosts over the 2.0 codebase. For an overview of new features introduced since 2.0 please see: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/new_features_2_2.html Please see the CHANGES_2.2 file, linked from the download page, for a full list of changes. This release includes the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) version 1.2.2 bundled with the tar and zip distributions. The APR libraries libapr, libaprutil, and (on Win32) libapriconv must all be updated to ensure binary compatibility and address many known platform bugs. This release has been through extensive testing, including live at some of the world's busiest sites, and is now considered stable. This means that modules and applications developed for Apache 2.2.0 will be both source- and binary-compatible with future 2.2.x releases. This release builds on and extends the Apache 2.0 API. Modules written for Apache 2.0 will need to be recompiled in order to run with Apache 2.2, but no substantial reworking should be necessary. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/branches/2.2.x/VERSIONING Known Issues Some non-showstopping issues were found during the 2.2.0 release and testing cycle: * mod_dbd and mod_authn_dbd are absent from the Windows build environment. A patch to correct this is available from: http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/patches/apply_to_2.2.0/ * If you are installing on a system with apr/apr-util 1.0 or 1.1 installed, you must build apr/apr-util 1.2 manually. See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/install.html#requirements When upgrading or installing this version of Apache, please bear in mind that if you intend to use Apache with one of the threaded MPMs, you must ensure that any modules you will be using (and the libraries they depend on) are thread-safe. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) iD8DBQFDj3JI94h19kJyHwARAjaPAKC3gmvzyR69tpOpomR3ktKKfBxk0QCghEej YqkrzomfpIIMq4m+P1VxSf0= =sbqV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
