Hi all,

For an emergency, I just setup a varnish 2 over Solaris 10 on a Sparc IIIi.
1°) Taking v 2.1.5 was a fail as the varnish parent process didnt want to start 2°) Looking arround the Web, I saw that two versions of Varnish were available for Sparc (I mean packaged by some other system/distributions): 2.1.3 and 2.0.4
a - 2.1.3 parent launched, but couldn't connect to the background Apache
b - 2.0.4 gave me satisfaction as it compiles, runs and connects to the backend.

My application configuration is:
- 1 front varnish on 0.0.0.0:80, configured to connect to 1 Apache located on the same machine listening on 127.0.0.1:8080 ** Varnish is _for the moment_ default configured and the VCL is about one section declaring the backend
- Application is a Drupal 7 one
- The database is on another machine.

The hardware is: Sun v440, with 1 Sparc IIIi CPU and 8GB RAM

Now, the question is:
Has someone experienced varnish 2.0.4 with Solaris10 on Sparc, and what about the reliability of that mix? (I ask because Sparc doesnt seem to be the prior target for support, as stated in https://www.varnish-cache.org/trac/ticket/1177 and http://goo.gl/MxZqb)

Thank you for your answers.

RMA.
