This patch was small enough I figured I might as well send it to the group; the other patch was wastefully large so it's probably easier to just download the regular distribution and apply this patch to it. Maybe it could get incorporated into the next dist? So, to apply this patch you should: 1. download and untar the standard thttpd-2.25b sources to a location of your choice 2. remove or rename your existing uClinux user/thttpd directory 3. make a new user/thttpd directory, and copy the thttpd-2.25b sources in 4. from user/thttpd, execute patch -p1 <thttpd-uClinux-2.25b.patch 5. change back to the uClinux root and build as normal Things to bear in mind: 1. read the notes at the top of the patch before using it. 2. this was tested under uClinux-dist-20041215, which came before configure scripts were supported properly. As a consequence, the patch contains a custom Makefile that works under uClinux (that version, at least) and you shouldn't call the configure script, as doing that would destroy this Makefile. If you happen to be using a version of uClinux that does properly support configure scripts, however, then you may just be able to run it without too much drama, although you'll probably still need to customise it to add romfs targets. I'm not really sure how that whole thing works because I haven't tried it yet. 3. due to limitations in uClinux (lack of fork(), mostly), when running CGI scripts no output at all will be sent to the client until the script has completed and exited. So you should probably try to keep your execution times brief. 4. thttpd will always send Date and Last-Modified headers for non-CGI data. If your hardware doesn't have an RTC then this could cause problems across reboots of your device. Probably best to avoid it unless you're only serving CGI (where you can tell the browser not to cache it) or you have a working RTC.
