Apache Version 1.3 (and up) What is it? ----------- Apache is an HTTP server, originally designed for Unix systems. This is the version of Apache for Microsoft Windows 2000, NT, 98, and 95 systems. Like the Unix version, it includes many frequently requested new features, and has an API that allows it to be extended to meet users' needs more easily. It also allows limited support for ISAPI extensions. The Latest Version ------------------ Details of the latest version can be found on the Apache HTTP server project page under http://httpd.apache.org/. Documentation ------------- The documentation available as of the date of this release is also included, in HTML format, in the htdocs/manual/ directory. For the most up-to-date documentation can be found on http://httpd.apache.org/docs/. For Windows specific information, see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/windows.html. WARNING ------- Apache should never be used as a production server under any consumer operating system such as Windows 95, 98, or ME (Millenium Edition). Only Windows NT 4.0 or 2000 should be considered, and only with appropriate NTFS file system and user security administration. Apache runs on these consumer Windows environments only to provide test, development or trusted intranet server platforms. Apache on Win32 should be considered initial-release quality code. It has not been subjected to the same stresses on its stability and security that the Unix releases have enjoyed, so there is a greater possibility of undiscovered vulnerabilities to stability or security of the Win32 port. Apache performs best, and is still most reliable on Unix platforms. Over time the performance, reliability and security for the Apache Win32 port has improved, and continues to improve. Folks doing comparative reviews of webserver performance are still asked to compare against Apache running on a Unix platform such as Solaris, FreeBSD, or Linux. The Win32 code for Apache 2.0 has been entirely revised and large segments have been rewritten from scratch. Once the Apache 2.0 server is released, we strongly encourage all Win32 users to move to that platform for increased stability and security. Installation ------------ See the http://httpd.apache.org/docs/windows.html for details of how to install, configure and run Apache. These documents are also accessable from the "Documentation" program group listed within the "Apache Web Server" Start Menu programs group created by the full Apache Win32 program installer. Known Problems -------------- To get information about the current set of known problems, see the online bug reporting database at http://www.apache.org/bug_report.html Bugs which affect Apache on Windows and not Apache on Unix can be found under the category "os-windows". Do not report configuration problems to this database. Please first research the problem you are experiencing on the newsgroup news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.ms-windows and search the bugs database before posting a bug report.
