The following Unix functions +used by Apache are affected:</li> + +<ul> +<li> +bind() for ports less than 1024</li> + +<li> +setgid()</li> + +<li> +setuid()</li> +</ul> + +<li> +MPE's support for UIDs and GIDs is more limited than Unix. Every +MPE account maps to a unique GID. Each MPE account can contain multiple +MPE users, and every MPE user maps to a unique UID (UID 0 is not supported). +The current UID for a process must correspond to an MPE user within the +MPE account that corresponds to the current GID of the process.</li> + +<li> +MPE child processes cannot survive the death of their parent. When +the parent terminates, any remaining children will be killed.</li> + +<li> +MPE doesn't initialize the envp parameter when invoking the main() of a +new process. Use the global variable environ instead of envp.</li> + +<li> +MPE link() exists, but always returns EIMPL. Use rename() or symlinks +instead of hard links.</li> + +<li> +MPE doesn't allow the @ character in filenames.</li> + +<li> +MPE lacks support for TCP_NODELAY, but that's the default anyway.</li> + +<li> +MPE lacks support for SO_KEEPALIVE.</li> + +<li> +MPE lacks support for process groups.</li> + +<li> +MPE inetd only passes stdin (and NOT stdout) to the invoked service. +But you can write to stdin just fine.</li> +</ul> + +<h3> +Major Apache functionality issues</h3> + +<ul> +<li> +Beginning with HP-supported Apache 1.3.9 and HP WebWise MPE/iX Secure Web +Server A.01.00 (based on Apache 1.3.9), the User and Group directives in +httpd.conf are now unconditionally executed as corresponding setuid()/setgid() +calls. Previously this was only done if HTTPD was being run as MANAGER.SYS. +This functionality change was submitted back to the 1.3.13-dev source tree +at www.apache.org. The Apache for Unix behavior is to only honor +User and Group if running as root.</li> + +<li> +Beginning with HP-supported Apache 1.3.9 and HP WebWise MPE/iX Secure Web +Server A.01.00 (based on Apache 1.3.9), the SVIPC shared memory macros +SHM_R and SHM_W have been modified from their traditional owner-only-read +and owner-only-write values to be owner-and-group-read and owner-and-group-write +on MPE/iX in order to allow increased parent/child flexibility in spite +of MPE's limited POSIX UID/GID support. This functionality change +was submitted back to the 1.3.13-dev source tree at www.apache.org. +The Apache for Unix behavior uses the traditional owner-only values of +SHM_R and SHM_W.</li> +</ul> + +<h3> +Minor Apache functionality issues</h3> + +<ul> +<li> +Apache for Unix must be run as root to bind to TCP ports 1-1023. Apache +for MPE must call GETPRIVMODE() to bind to TCP ports 1-1023; PM is not +used for ports greater than 1023. The standard web server HTTP port is +80.</li> + +<li> +Apache for Unix in standalone mode will detach itself and run in the background +as a system-type process. Apache for MPE in standalone mode cannot detach +itself and run in the background because MPE POSIX doesn't allow this (the +detached child would be killed when the parent terminated). Therefore +you must use an MPE batch job to run Apache in standalone mode.</li> + +<li> +Apache for Unix uses process groups to manage child processes. Apache for +MPE cannot use process groups because MPE POSIX doesn't support this. The +implications of this are unknown.</li> + +<li> +Apache for Unix uses the setsockopt() option TCP_NODELAY. Apache for MPE +does not, because MPE doesn't support it. But TCP_NODELAY is the default +MPE behavior anyway.</li> + +<li> +Apache for Unix uses the setsockopt() option SO_KEEPALIVE. Apache +for MPE does not, because MPE doesn't support it.</li> + +<li> +Apache for Unix under inetd reads from the socket via stdin and writes +via stdout. Apache for MPE under inetd reads *AND* writes the socket via +stdin. I consider MPE 5.5 inetd to be broken and poorly documented, so +I submitted SR 5003355016 to address this. If HP ever alters the MPE inetd +to pass the socket the way HPUX inetd does (not likely in the grand scheme +of things), the existing Apache for MPE code will break.</li> + +<li> +Apache for Unix will use the @ character in proxy cache filenames, but +since @ is illegal in MPE filenames, Apache for MPE uses the % character +instead.</li> +</ul> + +<h2> + +<hr WIDTH="100%"></h2> + +<h2> +<a NAME="binaries"></a>Binary Distributions</h2> +HP ships a fully supported Apache binary distribution with the Fundamental +Operating System (FOS) in MPE/iX 6.5 and later.
