This Readme explains the customisations made to binary files and zipped files in this folder.

* The first is the Apache Httpd 2, whose unmodified source code was originally being compiled up on Linux alone. The first greenstone-modified version was added to include windows makefiles to compile these.


(A) FILE: httpd-2.2.11-gs.tar.gz
Apache Httpd 2 src code with modifications for Greenstone

This Readme file was originally created on July 22. The dates in the commit messages below, upto and including point 6, are relative to this.


1. http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/gsdl/trunk/runtime-src/packages/apache-httpd/httpd-2.2.11-gs.tar.gz?rev=20169

Revision 20169, 7.9 MB  (checked in by ak19, 12 months ago)

Adding the customised apache web server source folder: a linux source release plus apache's official windows makefiles. Now it compiles up on both OS.

    * Property svn:mime-type set to application/octet-stream


2. http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/gsdl/trunk/runtime-src/packages/apache-httpd/httpd-2.2.11-gs.tar.gz?rev=20349

Revision 20349, 7.9 MB  (checked in by ak19, 11 months ago)

Dr Bainbridge fixed the configure.in (and generated the configure file from it) so that it generates the libexpat.so.0 file it needs. This way the apache web server won't look elsewhere for the so file and perhaps find an incompatible version of it.

    * Property svn:mime-type set to application/octet-stream


3. http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/gsdl/trunk/runtime-src/packages/apache-httpd/httpd-2.2.11-gs.tar.gz?rev=20668

Revision 20668, 7.9 MB  (checked in by davidb, 10 months ago)

better to include builtin libiconv support. Should prevent .so version conflicts on Mac

    * Property svn:mime-type set to application/octet-stream


4. http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/gsdl/trunk/runtime-src/packages/apache-httpd/httpd-2.2.11-gs.tar.gz?rev=20850

Revision 20850, 7.7 MB  (checked in by ak19, 9 months ago)

Teaches the apache web server being compiled up where the static libiconv lib file, libiconv.a, is to be found (which greenstone would have compiled up during the greenstone configure stage). The with-iconv flag is set in runtime-src/packages/configure file to point to the common-src/packages/iconv folder wherein the lib folder contains the generated libiconv.a file. The apache server tar file is updated as well: no longer does it add the with-iconv flag explicitly since this is now already set at a higher up level and is passed down to it.

    * Property svn:mime-type set to application/octet-stream

Revision 20892, 7.7 MB  (checked in by oranfry, 9 months ago)

the change I think will force apr not to use sendfile

    * Property svn:mime-type set to application/octet-stream

(http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/main/trunk/greenstone2/runtime-src/packages/apache-httpd/httpd-2.2.11-gs.tar.gz)

Revision 20893, 7.9 MB  (checked in by ak19, 9 months ago)

Dr Bainbridge updated srclib/apr/configure.in so that sendfile is set to 0 for Darwin (Mac) to tell Darwin systems that we won't be working with calls to sendfile, since Tiger OS does not have sendfile even though we are compiling on Leopard which does.

    * Property svn:mime-type set to application/octet-stream
