[AOLSERVER] [DEV] Changing required autoconf version

2004-07-21 Thread Dossy
Everyone, I'd like to change the required version of autoconf required -- currently, AOLserver configure.in works with autoconf 2.13, but I'd like to move to configure.ac and autoconf 2.50+. Does anyone have any issues with this? -- Dossy -- Dossy Shiobara mail: [EMAIL

[AOLSERVER] Possible problem with nsopenssl3 beta

2004-07-21 Thread Janine Sisk
Hi all, Yesterday I moved a site from version 3.3+ad 13 of aolserver to 4. I had initially installed the nsopenssl beta and it had been working fine, so I left it in. However, about 11 pm last night it started spewing [20/Jul/2004:23:58:45][7246.7176][-conn:live-nybooks::4] Debug: Send(55):

Many relatively old (but not ancient) Linux distributions ship with autoconf 2.13 such as RedHat 7.2, 7,3 and AS 2.1. Upgrading isn't particularly painful but many only like using official rpms and AFAIK RedHat does not provide them. What is the advantage of upgrade? rob Dossy wrote: Everyone, I'd

We also experienced similar problems with AOLserver and nsopenssl 3.x, I've been meaning to investigate farther. For us, nsopenssl would go into an infinite loop. I was never able to trigger it myself, but it happened on a fairly regular basis. The culprit seemed to be OpenSSLProc in

AOLserver's configure script has an --{enable,disable}-shared arg which as far as I can tell is pointless. AOLserver builds shared or static based on how Tcl was built and REFUSES to build unless it matches. In other words: if Tcl is built shared, AOLserver must also be. If Tcl is built static,
