BAD NEWS - Apache 1.2b10 on NT

[Giovanni Maruzzelli]

Hi there,


There's some bad news that maybe is final, at least for me.

I've built another version, that is multithreaded. But, also if is very
fast, you:

1) can make a lot of connection per second but from one only machine(I've
done almost 15 conn/sec)

2) if you connect from two machine at the same time it crash

I think the problem is that all threads share the same memory, so, if they
try to modify at the same time, they crash.
I'vealso utilized a lot of Mutex, but this don't help.

There's no mean to have memory storage space reserved for a thread.

3) Put apart that I can't fork from a thread (cause the library return an
error), so there's no cgi support. Probably this can be done through a
thread that execute the cgi, but at this point, better use msvc++.

I think that I'll put out this new (and last?) version today or tomorrow.

ciao,

-giovanni
