These are -intended to be brief notes, and you should be able to find more -information in either the <A HREF="new_features_2_0.html">New -Features</A> document, or in the <CODE>src/CHANGES</CODE> file. - -<H3>Compile-Time Configuration Changes</H3> - -<UL> -<LI>Apache now uses an <code>autoconf</code> and <code>libtool</code> -system for configuring the build processes. Using this system -is similar to, but not the same as, using the APACI system in -Apache 1.3. Further documentation to follow.</li> - -<li>In addition to the usual selection of modules which you can choose -to compile, Apache 2.0 has moved the main part of request processing -into <a href="mpm.html">Multi-Processing Modules</a> (MPMs).</li> -</UL> - -<H3>Run-Time Configuration Changes</H3> - -<UL> -<li>Many directives that were in the core server in Apache 1.3 -are now in the MPMs. If you wish the behavior of the server -to be as similar as possible to the behavior of Apache 1.3, -you should select the <a href="mod/prefork.html">prefork</a> -MPM. Other MPMs will have different directives to control process -creation and request processing.</li> - -<li>The <code>CacheNegotiatedDocs</code> directive now takes -the argument <code>on</code> or <code>off</code>. Existing -instances of <code>CacheNegotiatedDocs</code> should be replaced -with <code>CacheNegotiatedDocs on</code>.</li> - -<li>The <code>ErrorDocument</code> directive no longer uses a quote at -the beginning of the argument to indicate a text message. Instead, -you should enclose the message in double quotes. For example, -existing instances of <blockquote><code>ErrorDocument 403 "Some -Message</code></blockquote> should be replaced with -<blockquote><code>ErrorDocument 403 "Some -Message"</code></blockquote> As long as the second argument is not a -valid URL or pathname, it will be treated as a text message.</li> - -<li>The <code>AccessConfig</code> and <code>ResourceConfig</code> -directives no longer exist. Existing instances of these directives -can be replaced with the <a -href="mod/core.html#include"><code>Include</code></a> directive which -has equivalent functionality. If you were making use of the default -values of these directives without including them in the configuration -files, you may need to add <code>Include conf/access.conf</code> and -<code>Include conf/srm.conf</code> to your httpd.conf. In order to -assure that Apache reads the configuration files in the same order as -was implied by the older directives, the <code>Include</code> -directives should be placed at the end of httpd.conf, with the one for -<code>srm.conf</code> preceding the one for -<code>access.conf</code>.</li> - -<li>The <code>BindAddress</code> directive no longer exists. -Equivalent functionality is provided with the more flexible <code><a -href="mod/mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a></code> directive. - -<li>The <code>ExtendedStatus</code> directive no longer exists. -Status reporting has been completely rewritten to take advantage -of the new MPM system.</li> - -<li>The <code>ServerType</code> directive no longer exists. -The method used to serve requests is now determined by the selection -of MPM. There is currently no MPM designed to be launched by -inetd.</li> - -<li>The mod_log_agent and mod_log_referer modules which provided the -<code>AgentLog</code>, <code>RefererLog</code> and -<code>RefererIgnore</code> directives have been removed. Agent and -referer logs are still available using the <a -href="mod/mod_log_config.html#customlog">CustomLog</a> directive of -mod_log_config.</li> - -<li>The <code>AddModule</code> and <code>ClearModuleList</code> -directives no longer exist. These directives where used to ensure -that modules could be enabled in the correct order. The new -Apache 2.0 API allows modules to explicitly specify their ordering, -eliminating the need for these directives.</li> - -</UL> - -<H3>Misc Changes</H3> - -<UL> - -<li>Graceful restarts of the server are now executed by signaling the -parent process with <code>WINCH</code> rather than -<code>USR1</code>.</li> - -<li>The <code>httpd</code> command line option <code>-S</code> -which was used for printing the virtual host configuration has -been replaced by <code>-t -D DUMP_VHOSTS</code>.</li> - -<li>The <code>httpd</code> command line option <code>-X</code> has -been removed. Most MPMs allow the same functionality to be requested -by using the <code>-D ONE_PROCESS</code> command line -option. In addition, a <code>-D NO_DETACH</code> command line -option is available.</li> - -<li>The module mod_auth_digest, which was experimental in Apache 1.3 -is now a standard module.</li> - -<li>The mod_mmap_static module, which was experimental in Apache 1.3 -has been replaced with mod_file_cache.</li> - -<li>The distribution has been completely reorganized so that it no -longer contains an independent <code>src</code> directory. Instead, -the sources are logically organized under the main distribution -directory, and installations of the compiled server should be -directed to a separate directory.</li> - -</UL> - -<H3>Third Party Modules</H3> - -<p>Extensive changes were made to the server API in Apache 2.0. -Existing modules designed for the Apache 1.3 API will <strong>not</strong> -work in Apache 2.0 without modification.
