[Mageia-dev] apache-mpm-prefork maybe contains problematic things

Sat Feb 19 23:30:44 CET 2011

Hi,
+I just saw, that apache-mpm-prefork package maybe contains problematic 
+things.
+There is a note about it from Oden Erikson explaining things about the 
+package in the rpm.
+--- begin ---
+The most significant changes with this release compared to apache up to
+Mandriva Linux 2006.0, 2007.0, 2007.1, 2008.0 and 2008.1
+
+ o mod_ssl has support for distcache, apr_memcache and SNI per 
+default.
+ o The SSL certificates and directories has been moved to the new 
+/etc/pki
+   directory structure.
+ o The SSL default vhost config file has been moved from
+   /etc/httpd/modules.d/41_mod_ssl.default-vhost.conf to
+   /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts.d/01_default_ssl_vhost.conf
+ o The new htcacheclean subpackage will monitor and clean the 
+mod_proxy
+   (mod_disk_cache) directories at given intervals in a daemonized 
+fashion.
+   You can tune this in the /etc/sysconfig/htcacheclean configuration 
+file.
+ o There are three new experimental MPM's, the ITK, peruser and event 
+MPM's.
+   Use these with caution because of their experimental status. The 
+packages
+   are named:
+   - apache-mpm-event
+   - apache-mpm-itk
+   - apache-mpm-peruser
+
+Please read the following files for more in-depth information about the 
+changes
+in apache 2.2; upgrading.txt and new_features_2_2.txt
+
+The best practise is to read the apache manual before sending in 
+bugreports,
+please install apache-doc like so:
+
+urpmi apache-doc
+
+and then read the somewhat localized apache manual online at:
+
+http://localhost/manual/
+
+Thanks in advance.
+
+Regards // Oden Eriksson

+
+Shouldn't we write something on our own instead?
