lighttpd 1.4.13

January 30, 2007

Only 2 weeks after .12 hit the servers we have a new release cleaning up the issues that were introduced by it.

Download:

On the fix side we have:

  • fixed a seg-fault in the HTTP-Request splitting
  • fixed long-standing bug with Content-Length and HEAD requests
  • fixed a possible abort of a upload if xattr is enabled

New are

  • mod-magnet finally handles ‘require “lfs”’ without complaining
  • mod-magnet got light.stat() which uses the stat-cache
  • mod-webdav supports LOCK if compiled with –with-webdav-locks

Debian user have to compile their lua-support with:

$ configure --with-lua=lua5.1 ...

as their lua-5.1 package isn’t called ‘lua’.

Enjoy this release and watch out for 1.5.0 on the horizon. :)
