Problem with apache-1.3.31 and mod_frontpage (dso, official FreeBSD port).

           Summary: Problem with apache-1.3.31 and mod_frontpage (dso,
                    official FreeBSD port).
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other

I was in the process of trying to upgrade to apache-1.3.31 today. You should 
know we use the DSO mod_frontpage built from the FreeBSD ports system, which 
is based on the original "improved mod_frontpage" and further improved to 
support FP2002 as well as security fixes. 

When doing the intial authentication from Frontpage, when using 1.3.29 (which 
works flawlessly) you see this in the access log:

216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:25:01 -0400] "GET /_vti_inf.html HTTP/1.1" 
200 1754
216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:25:01 -
0400] "POST /_vti_bin/shtml.exe/_vti_rpc HTTP/1.1" 200 240
216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:25:01 -
0400] "POST /_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.exe HTTP/1.1" 401 480
216.127.136.116 - spagma [27/May/2004:14:25:05 -
0400] "POST /_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.exe HTTP/1.1" 200 2481

When using apache 1.3.31, I get this:

16.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:00:00 -0400] "OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:00:00 -0400] "GET /_vti_inf.html HTTP/1.1" 
200 1754
216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:00:00 -
0400] "POST /_vti_bin/shtml.exe/_vti_rpc HTTP/1.1" 200 240
216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:00:00 -
0400] "POST /_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.exe HTTP/1.1" 401 480
216.127.136.116 - - [27/May/2004:14:00:00 -0400] "method=open+service%3a4%2e0%
2e2%2e4715&service%5fname=%2f" 501 -

And in the error log:

[Thu May 27 13:32:06 2004] [error] [client 216.127.136.116] Invalid method in 
request method=open+service%3a4%2e0%2e2%2e4715&service%5fname=%2

Not being an expert on the apache code, I would assume this has something to 
do with the fact that the frontpage auth packets have a <CRLF><CRLF> in the 
middle of the header, and thus apache is seeing the rest of the header as a 
new request. I'm assuming you guys were addressing a potential security issue, 
or whatnot.

All I know is the DSO works on 1.3.29 and not 1.3.31, and since I like your 
software so much I thought I'd pass it along, so hopefully it can be addressed 
in a later build.

Thanks!
