------------------------ WWWOFFLE Announcement ------------------------ The latest version of WWWOFFLE is now available to fix some bugs in version 2.8a and add some new features. -------------------- NEWS -------------------- Bug Fixes: Don't write compressed or chunked error messages to the cache. Count raw bytes when deciding if to continue interrupted download. Don't continue interrupted download unless keeping it. Display dates up to 1 year in the monitor index. Fix for 64 bits machines in md5.c. Warn user if /etc/wwwoffle.conf exists when installing. Fix memory corruption problem in CGI code. Remove crash in info pages for replies with no Content-Type. Remove socket timeouts in wwwoffle program because they are in server. Don't let the WDG HTML validator request any pages. Fix some comments, remove unused variables make unneeded global variables static. Add some more pointer checks, free unfreed memory, remove unused function arguments. Don't overwrite the existing outgoing file when requesting URL. Handle file systems where the directory entries are not in the conventional order. Documentation: Add more examples in wwwoffle.conf. Update INSTALL document on permissions after installation. Update FAQ to say that WWWOFFLE might need restarting if changing resolv.conf. Updated the Dutch translated message pages (from Paul Slootman). New Features: Added an option to the wwwoffle program to dump the current configuration. Added a -l option to the wwwoffled server to specify a log file location. Sending a SIGHUP to the wwwoffled server closes and re-opens the log file. Number of bytes transferred from/to the server/client is written to the log. Updated audit-usage.pl to display bytes transferred information. If 'wwwoffle -offline' stopped fetching 'wwwoffle -online|-fetch' restarts it. Add in the keep-cache-if-not-found option (based on Paul Rombouts patch). -------------------- NEWS -------------------- Downloading ----------- As always the full selection of source versions are available from the wwwoffle download page: http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/wwwoffle/version-2.8/download.html The complete version (960 kB) is available from: http://www.gedanken.freeserve.co.uk/download-wwwoffle/wwwoffle-2.8a.tgz The patch from version 2.8 (76 kB) is available from: http://www.gedanken.freeserve.co.uk/download-wwwoffle/wwwoffle-2.8a-2.8b.diff.gz The source has been uploaded to the usual FTP servers today and will be available from them soon. ------------------------ WWWOFFLE Announcement ------------------------ Send all replies to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send the command 'unsubscribe' as the subject of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
