Hi, version 1.2.19 of the Apache Tomcat mod_jk web server connector has been tagged. This version contains numerous bug fixes and some new improvements over our last release 1.2.18. Please test and share your experience. Your feedback helped us a lot during the previous release, so we hope there will be again many testers and contributors for binaries.
If no critical bugs will be found, we will have a formal release vote on the dev list starting at Thursday, September 21st. The source distribution can be downloaded from: http://tomcat.apache.org/dev/dist/tomcat-connectors/jk/source/jk-1.2.19/ The updated documentation can be found at http://tomcat.apache.org/dev/dist/tomcat-connectors/jk/source/jk-1.2.19/docs Please see http://tomcat.apache.org/dev/dist/tomcat-connectors/jk/source/jk-1.2.19/docs/changelog.html for a complete list of changes. The most important news are: Configuration: Implement worker configuration templates (attribute reference). Configuration: Allow mount, balance_worker etc. in multiple lines per worker. Logging: Log deprecated attributes. Logging: Add %R JkRequestLogFormat for Apache. Logging: Add many notes set by the load balancer for logging in Apache access log. Logging: Fix default log level (info). Apache: Docs and implementation completion how to use SetHandler and env vars to control mod_jk forwards (aka the ";jsessionid=" problem). Apache: New JkOption DisableReuse to disable persistant connections to tomcat. Apache: Detect aborted client connection. This was broken since version 1.2.14. IIS: Fix simple_rewrite for the cases where the rewritten url is larger then the original one. IIS: Make rewrite_rule_map and log_level as non mandatory directives for isapi_redirect. Load balancer: Force immediate recovery attempts, if all balance workers are in error state. Load balancer: combine "stopped" and "disabled" to one new attribute "activation"; combine various runtime error states in one new attribute. Load balancer: Reorg of the main service loop; make retries work better. Load balancer: only use disabled worker in single worker load balancer, if the request carries a session id with the correct jvm_route. JkStatus: Add refresh link; add display of recover time, child error numbers; make jvm_route manageable JkStatus: Include ant tasks in source distribution. Network code: several fixes and improvements.
