This is a stable release + concentrating mainly on some bug fixes. + + Please see the ChangeLog for a full list of changes. + + If you find any bugs while using this release, please fill in the + Bugzilla Bug Report. + + The most important new features in this version are: + + Better Error Detection for Load Balancer Workers + + Local and global error states have been improved. You can fine tune + the behaviour with the new "error_escalation_time" attribute (see the + timeouts documentation). + + Dynamic Address and Port Change Using the Status Worker + + The status worker now allows you to change the address and the port + of an AJP13 worker on the fly. You can e.g. provision dummy workers + with a port equal to "0", which will be automatically put into + stopped mode during startup. Later, when you want to actually use + thse workers, you set their address and port to the final values. + + Note that already existing connections will go on using the old + address and port. This will be improved in future versions. + + New Data in Status Worker Display + + The status worker display now also contains the timestamp of the last + worker errors. + + Improved Proxy Flexibility + + You can now overwrite more request metadata before the request gets + send to the backend. This is helpful in case there are other reverse + proxies in front of your web server. A new documentation page + explains this in detail. + + Improved IIS Support + + IIS support has been improved especially when using mutltiple + application pools. Furthermore you can now configure the ISAPI plugin + to update the uriworkermap.properies file on a regular interval using + the watchdog thread. + + JNI Worker Deprecation + + Workers of type jni are broken since a long time. Since there is no + more use for them, they have been deprecated now, and will be removed + in a future release. + --------------------------------------------------------------------------- + Copyright © 1999-2011, Apache Software Foundation + Apache TomcatApache Logo + --------------------------------------------------------------------------- + The Apache Tomcat Connector - News + + 2008 News and Status + + 2008 News & Status + 28 October - JK-1.2.27 released + The Apache Tomcat team is proud to announce the immediate + availability of Tomcat Connectors 1.2.27. This is a stable release + adding lots of new features and some bug fixes. + + Please see the ChangeLog for a full list of changes. + + If you find any bugs while using this release, please fill in the + Bugzilla Bug Report. + + The most important new features in this version are: + + Watchdog Thread for Periodic Tasks + + The connector has to run some periodic tasks independant of request + processing. Examples are probing or closing down idle backend + connections, adjusting load numbers and recovering workers from error + state. + + Before version 1.2.27 these tasks were done inside the request + processing loop. When a new request came in and the task was due, the + thread handling the request first executed the internal task and then + handled the request. If there were no requests coming in, the tasks + would not run. If any of the tasks took unexpectedly long, the + response time of the request waiting for the finishing of the task + went up. + + Starting with this release you can configure a separate watchdog + thread inside the web server to run all those tasks independantly of + request processing. This new feature is avaliable for the connector + when used with Apache httpd 2.x or with Microsoft IIS. To keep the + behaviour of the new version consistent with previous releases, this + feature is turned off by default. You can activate the watchdog + thread via JkWatchdogInterval for Apache or watchdog_interval for + IIS. + + Connection Probing + + In previous releases connection probing (checking whether connections + still work) could only be done immediately after a new connection was + established and directly before sending each request. Since we now + have the watchdog thread available, we also added a periodic probing + option, which you can activate with the worker attribute ping_mode. + This will also be useful as a protection against the infamous + firewall idle connection drop. + + The older attributes connect_timeout and prepost_timeout still exist + and work the same way they did in previous releases. Since there are + now three different probing options, we recommend to migrate your + configuration to the newer attributes ping_mode, ping_timeout and + connection_ping_interval. + + Mount Extensions + + Usually one defines workers and mounts for the connector. A worker + defines a backend we want to talk to and the configuration parameters + of the communication, connection pools etc. The mounts define which + URIs we want to forward to which worker (so we also call a mount an + URI map rule). In version 1.2.27 you can overwrite certain worker + parameter per mount. + + One easy to understand example is reply timeouts. Until this release + you had to specify a reply timeout for the whole worker. But reply + times depend a lot on the type of request. So normally you want to + define a general reply timeout and for some special URLs you need to + relax the reply timeout, because you know those URLs take much longer + to process (like e.g. reporting or other compute intensive tasks). + + Another possible case is the activation status. You might use a load + balancer worker to forward requests to certain webapps in a farm of + Tomcat nodes. If you wanted to update some webapp on one node, you + previously had to stop forwarding requests for all webapps on this + Tomcat node. What was not possible until now, was stopping forwarding + requests restricted to the webapp and the node you wanted to update. + + Starting with this release, you can add so-called rule extensions to + your uriworkermap file to influence worker parameters per mount. This + will work for all Apache versions and for IIS. Remember, that the + uriworkermap file automatically gets reloaded after changes without + web server restart. + + Improved IIS support + + We improved IIS support im various ways. It is now possible to use + multiple IIS 6 application pools with the ISAPI redirector. + + Furthermore some improvements were added as compile time features. + The most notable one is chunked encoding support, which was a major + refactoring and is therefore still considered experimental. You can + download binaries with and without chunked encoding support. In + future versions, chunked encoding will likely be availabe in all + builds. + + Another new feature is an elegant way of configuring error page + redirects. All new features are documented on the documentation page + about configuring IIS. + + Enhanced Status Worker + + The status worker now can also manage and show statistics for AJP + workers that are not part of a load balancer. Other improvements are + the new dump action, the integration of the new configuration + attributes, showing average request and transfer rates since the last + statistics reset and the ability to display only a single member of a + load balancer. + + Unfortunately we had to change some request parameters used for the + update action of the status worker. + + Miscellaneous Improvements + + Further enhancements are: + + * Configurable session stickyness indicator: cookie name and URL + path parameter name can be freely chosen instead of the servlet + spec compliant JSESSIONID and ;jsessionid. + * Automatically determining the size of the shared memory segment + needed to accommodate all workers. + * New connection establishment timeout socket_connect_timeout. + * New timeout connection_acquire_timeout for acquiring a free + connection from the pool. + * Improved retry handling by adjusting the meaning of the attribute + retries for AJP workers and for load balancers and by adding the + new retry_interval. + * Allowing the web server to provide error pages instead of Tomcat. + --------------------------------------------------------------------------- + Copyright © 1999-2011, Apache Software Foundation + Apache TomcatApache Logo + --------------------------------------------------------------------------- + The Apache Tomcat Connector - News + + 2007 News and Status + + 2007 News & Status + 21 December - JK-1.2.26 released + + The Apache Tomcat team is proud to announce the immediate availability + of Tomcat Connectors 1.2.26.
