Apache 1.2.5 Released

The fifth release in the 1.2 series is now available. Apache 1.2.5 is a maintenance release with numerous bug fixes and a few security fixes. For details, see the v1.2 CHANGES file.

For information about new features in 1.2, see the documentation.

Apache 1.3b3 Now Available

Apache 1.3b3 is the second public beta of the forthcoming Apache 1.3 Server. Apache 1.3 includes several new enhancements, improvements and performance boosts, but the most visible addition is the ability to run under Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 and 95. At present it is available in source format only, so a compiler is necessary to use it (Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 for Windows). If you are using, or had previously tried the 1.3a1 or 1.3b2 releases, please upgrade to 1.3b3 at your earliest convenience. A summary of the more important changes is available in the CHANGES file.

Important Note: Apache 1.3b1 was never formally released. Thus, the first public beta release was 1.3b2. Since 1.3b3 is still a beta release, it undoubtedly has its share of warts and bugs. Although it has been tested somewhat strenuously, your milage may vary.

For information about new features in 1.3, see the documentation. For information about some of the known issues in 1.3b3, see the known bugs page.

Compilation note:

Apache 1.2 uses regular expressions for several modules, such as mod_rewrite. Since system-level "regex" support isn't consistent across platforms, we have provided Henry Spencer's regex library as a part of the Apache distribution, but have taken pains to only use it if the platform requires it. Since we don't have access to all operating systems out there, we may not have correctly defined the "WANTHSREGEX" #define for a given platform. If you get a warning about a missing 'regex.h', set WANTHSREGEX=yes in the 'Configuration', and submit a Problem Report indicating you needed to do this for your platform. Include the output of the command "uname -a". Thanks!

Binary Releases

Are available in the binaries/ directory.

PGP Signatures

Many of the distribution kits have been digitally signed (using PGP) by the Apache Group members that constructed them. If so, there will be an accompanying distribution.asc file in the same directory as the distribution. The PGP keys can be found in the distribution directory at <http://www.apache.org/dist/KEYS>, and in the KEYS file after unpacking the distribution.

e.g.
% pgp < KEYS
% gunzip apache_1.2.5.tar.gz 
% pgp apache_1.2.5.tar.asc  apache_1.2.5.tar

Contributory Patches/Modules/Code

Are available in the contrib/ directory.

Official Patches

When we have patches to a minor bug or two, or features which we haven't yet included in a new release, we will put them in the patches subdirectory so people can get access to it before we roll another complete release.

Unofficial patches (things we are not yet sure about including) are in the contributed patches directory.
