The 1.3.25dev proxy code has been working well for me on windows, Hotmail works fine and the other sites I previously had trouble with are all OK now.
I have noticed a new issue but it is probably just due to the particularly weird setup that I have to run. I tried the latest proxy code - cvs snapshot (apache-1.3_20020505221200.tar.gz) ie compiled the lot then grabbed mod_proxy.so and dumped it onto my server running 1.3.14 on Win95. Now on start-up I get; ======================8<========================================== C:\Program Files\Novato\ALLcNET>apache -d \allcnet Syntax error on line 225 of /allcnet/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load C:/Program Files/Novato/ALLcNET/modules/mod_proxy.so into server: (3 1) A device attached to the system is not functioning: Note the errors or messages above, and press the <ESC> key to exit. ======================8<========================================== Line 225 is; LoadModule proxy_module "C:/Program Files/Novato/ALLcNET/modules/mod_proxy.so" If I copy mod_proxy.so from 1.3.24 or 1.3.14 all is fine again. The same also happens with Win2000, ie 1.3.14 and mod_proxy.so from cvs snapshot today gives the same error message. Any ideas on what might be happening? I am in the process of going through the recent commits to try to work out at what stage this started to happen. The latest mod_proxy.so works fine with 1.3.25dev on Win95, its only when I try to mix it with 1.3.14 that I have a problem. The reason I use 1.3.14 on Win95 is that it is the latest version that does not seem to have windows 9x shutdown issues :-(. Regards Andrew Braund
