Hi,
I'm currently working on a module to create virtualhosts on the fly out
of a cdb-database file.
I looked at some module which do basically the same with other data
sources. What I now wonder is, what else I have to do except for setting
the r->filename and maybe some script-alias-foo.
In one module I saw the following:
8<--------------------------------------------------------------------
request_rec *top = (r->main)?r->main:r;
/* ... */
top->server->server_hostname = apr_pstrdup (top->pool, hostname);
r->parsed_uri.hostinfo = apr_pstrdup(r->pool,r->server->server_hostname);
r->parsed_uri.hostname = apr_pstrdup(r->pool,r->server->server_hostname);
8<--------------------------------------------------------------------
and thats exactly where I got some problems.
I sometimes noticed, that the virtual host name in /server-status/
contained only weird characters, which I think is a result of freeing a
buffer which is currently in use.
I think the problem is the wrong pool for allocating space for the
server_hostname.
I thought I fixed that with this solution:
8<--------------------------------------------------------------------
if(r->hostname!=NULL)
{
r->server->server_hostname = apr_pstrdup(r->connection->pool,
r->hostname);
r->parsed_uri.hostinfo =
apr_pstrdup(r->pool,r->server->server_hostname);
r->parsed_uri.hostname =
apr_pstrdup(r->pool,r->server->server_hostname);
}
8<--------------------------------------------------------------------
But that didn't fix the problem completely.
My question now: do I have to set server->server_hostname and if so,
from which pool should I allocate the memory from?
with kind regards,
Robert Schulze
