When first administration is done and a user name & password for a
WWW administrator is set, login fails with a security alert. |
shttpd | yes |

Solution:
Some browsers have big problems when using the HyperText Transfer Protocol's
method POST for transfering data. It seems, that some of them truncate or
corrupt data. Some buggy ones are:
- Netscape Navigator/Communicator 4.05
corrupts data
- Netscape Navigator/Communicator 4.04
corrupts data at the 88th character of a line
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0x
corrupts data with no fix scheme, but mostly after the 120th character
After re-installing the original configuration file httpd.cfg
- you have to replace it, since it gets corrupted -, you may re-do setting a
WWW administrator, but specify only one character each for user name and
password! When you successfully entry the main administration menu, you may
then select the user list of the SEC_admin group, add the correct
data and remove the waste entry. That should work.
Note:
Fixed with version 0.03 - HTTP method GET is also supported and used per
default for updates of the server's configuration.

Server cannot find its modules. | all modules |
- | yes |
yes | - |
Solution:
make sure, that the path of the WWW server is specified within the list of
DLL directories (i.e. DPATH under IBM OS/2's config.sys). |

- | yes |
Solution:
make sure, that the path of the WWW server is specified within the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. |
Connection crashes, when a certain number of CGIs is executed. It seems,
as if sub-shells remain as zombie processes. |
MOD_cgi | yes |
yes |
yes | - |
Solution:
Fixed with version 0.04 - the CGI handling has been optimized, the original
handle for stdin/stdout are now saved only one time instead of each time per
access (Windows: stdin/stdout of WWW server isn't even redirected any-more!)
