Hello,
I've been trying to find a solution to a problem that mod_cache has with
handling Etag's properly. I'm working with Apache 2.0.51. Below is a
diff to ./server/util_script.c that seems to fix the problem...
564a565,567
> else if (!strcasecmp(w, "ETag")) {
> apr_table_set(r->headers_out, w, l);
> }
My concern is that this might have some other negative effect on
something. Does anyone see any problem with adding Etag handling to the
ap_scan_script_header_err_core() function?
The reasoning here is that mod_cache calls this function to populate the
r->headers_out table from the ".header" file in the cache. But the
function sticks the Etag value in the r->err_headers_out table. Then,
mod_cache later calls ap_meets_conditions() which expects to find an
Etag value in r->headers_out.
The above diff seems to be the cleanest way to solve the problem, but I
wanted to check and see if it causes any other problems.
Thanks,
Mike C.
