The suggestion is better off rejected IMO since ErrorDocument is there to allow infinite customisation, and sprucing up the default errors could be a never ending task as one more 'minor' change follows another. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 7 Jul 1997 21:20:19 +0200 (MET DST) From: Bernhard Rosenkraenzer To: apache-bugs@apache.org Subject: 1.2.1 problems with Linux/GLIBC Hello, there are a few minor problems when trying to compile Apache 1.2.1 with Linux 2.x and GLIBC 2.x: 1) The crypt library (required with GLIBC) isn't included by default. I'd like to fix this, but I haven't found a way to autoconf glibc yet. 2) buff.c includes , which you can't do in GLIBC (redefinition) Same thing here - the fix is easy, but I can't autoconf glibc. 3) Not a bug, but a suggestion: I'd like to see the following patch included - it shows the administrator address as hyperlink rather than just text in the default error message: --- http_protocol.c~ Tue Jul 1 08:50:29 1997 +++ http_protocol.c Mon Jul 7 21:05:16 1997 @@ -1884,8 +1884,11 @@ bputs("misconfiguration and was unable to complete\n", fd); bputs("your request.
