Hiya,
I have run into a seemingly trivial, yet annoying issue. I used to
use Apache 1.3.33 on my live server, and recently I upgraded to
Apache 2.2.4, which apart from some hassles when upgrading the PHP4
extensions, went well.
However, there is one small thingy that is different: there are
exactly two directories on which I allow directory listings, and
these listings are (also) called from an external W*nd*ws program
that one of the users of my machine has made and has distributed. For
this user, I had allowed directory listings, with fancyindexing
enabled, and I thought everything would be fine, but....
Apache 1.3.33's mod_autoindex created listings using (uppercase)
<A> ... </A> tags, and Apache 2.2.4's version outputs (lowercase)
<a> ... </a> tags, and there ya go: the already widely distributed
application solely checks for the uppercase version, and fails on the
lowercase version.
I had hoped that it would be easy to change this around, using some
form of template, but after RTFM-ing on the mod_autoindex (and
accompanying "options") documents, I am pretty certain that this is
not the case (or I am overlooking it).
In fact, it looks like the only place where this could be changed, is
the mod_autoindex.c file, under the "work" directory in the proper
"ports" directory.
Now, I don't mind patching the C source to accomplish this, however,
compiling it neatly into a properly working module may be more of a
hassle, and as a further downside, this would have to be done each
and every time I would possibly want to update Apache...
Is there anyone who knows a better/easier way to achieve this?
If not, is there anyone who can tell me an easy method to properly
compile and link the mod_autoindex module (ideally using the provided
Makefile)?
Tnx in advance, and cheerz,
Olafo
