The 0.6.3 releases have two important fixes:
- Possible erroneous ini value length have been fixed
- The fatal errors have in module and request initialization have been replaced by warnings
Thanks to Eugeny Zadevalov for the detailed reports. Eugeny sent patches to use htscanner in apache when mod_htaccess is active but without mod_php. You can find it in the README file in the release archive or CVS. We will try to keep this patch up to date.
He is working on making htscanner compatible with PHP4. I’m not a fan of supporting dead branches (I consider PHP4 as dead) but if enough users need a PHP4 version, I can push the patches upstream. In the worst case, I will add them in the release and Eugeny can maintain them. Let me know what you need!
During the season holidays, I got a couple of mails from hosting company using fastcgi and planning to use htscanner. Having system configuration automatically set by htscanner (open basedir per vhost for ex.) but not editable by the users can help to use fastcgi for shared hosts. Are you an ISP? or simply provide hosting services and plan to give htscanner support to your users? Let me know what you need.
