I have a port for the FrontPage module ready for apache 1.3. Do we want to do the same as the Apache 1.3 port (i.e. apache-fp -> apache12-fp, apache13-fp)? I would like to provide the port as a DSO that way it could depend on tha Apache 1.3 port, instead of compiling a modified Apache server. Unfortunately, the current FrontPage module (mod_frontpage.c) can't be used as a DSO, for the following reasons: 1. Using --enable-shared, the port will compile and install (along w/mod_frontpage.so). But, when the server is started, and FrontPage is used to access the Web, the following error occurs: 404 Not Found Not Found The requested URL /_vti_bin/shtml.exe/_vti_rpc was not found on this server. When an error is logged from the FrontPage module, it gives the function that the error occurred in, NO function in mod_frontpage.c was reported, which tells me that mod_frontpage.c is not being called. NOTE: Installing a server compiled with --enable-module, allows the FP extensions to work. 2. The FP module uses execfilename and needs patches to add execfilename to the request_rec structure (httpd.h), and uses it in the functions get_path_info (http_request.c) and FrontPageAlias (mod_frontpage.c). 3. A patch is added to ap_getword_white (util.c), which checks for a character that is either NULL or when ANDed with 0x80 equals 0.
