As you've all seen, I voted against releasing 1.7.19 and 1.8.11, because the DAV tests don't work with HTTPd 2.4+, which is the system default on the latest version of OSX. I'd be surprised if OSX is the exception; it seems to depend not just on the HTTPd version but also on the configured MPM.
I found that we've had the fix on trunk in davautocheck.sh for over a year, and have proposed to backport it to 1.7.x and 1.8.x; it's a clean merge. I therefore propose that we scratch the 1.7.19 and 1.8.11 releases, approve the backport and roll 1.7.20 and 1.8.12 with the fix included. -- Brane On 15.12.2014 03:05, br...@apache.org wrote: > Author: brane > Date: Mon Dec 15 02:05:20 2014 > New Revision: 1645547 > > URL: http://svn.apache.org/r1645547 > Log: > * STATUS: Propose fix for "make davautocheck" with HTTPd 2.4+. > > Modified: > subversion/branches/1.7.x/STATUS > subversion/branches/1.8.x/STATUS > > Modified: subversion/branches/1.7.x/STATUS > URL: > http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/subversion/branches/1.7.x/STATUS?rev=1645547&r1=1645546&r2=1645547&view=diff > ============================================================================== > --- subversion/branches/1.7.x/STATUS (original) > +++ subversion/branches/1.7.x/STATUS Mon Dec 15 02:05:20 2014 > @@ -73,6 +73,17 @@ Candidate changes: > Votes: > +1: philip > > + * r1544302, r1544303 > + Add HTTPd lock file configuration for testing against HTTPd 2.4+. > + Justification: > + Without this change, the davautocheck tests do not work on some > + systems where HTTPd 2.4+ is the default; OSX 10.10 is one such case. > + Notes: > + As far as I'm concerned, this blocks 1.7.19 and 1.8.11 since the > + tests won't run on a current version of a supported OS. > + Votes: > + +1: brane > + > Veto-blocked changes: > ===================== > > > Modified: subversion/branches/1.8.x/STATUS > URL: > http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/subversion/branches/1.8.x/STATUS?rev=1645547&r1=1645546&r2=1645547&view=diff > ============================================================================== > --- subversion/branches/1.8.x/STATUS (original) > +++ subversion/branches/1.8.x/STATUS Mon Dec 15 02:05:20 2014 > @@ -111,6 +111,17 @@ Candidate changes: > Votes: > +1: philip > > + * r1544302, r1544303 > + Add HTTPd lock file configuration for testing against HTTPd 2.4+. > + Justification: > + Without this change, the davautocheck tests do not work on some > + systems where HTTPd 2.4+ is the default; OSX 10.10 is one such case. > + Notes: > + As far as I'm concerned, this blocks 1.7.19 and 1.8.11 since the > + tests won't run on a current version of a supported OS. > + Votes: > + +1: brane > + > Veto-blocked changes: > ===================== > > >
