<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> Information
|
|
for this topic supports the latest PTF levels for HTTP Server for i5/OS .
|
|
It is recommended that you install the latest PTFs to upgrade to the latest
|
|
level of the HTTP Server for i5/OS. Some of the topics documented here are
|
|
not available prior to this update. See <a href="http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.html" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.htm</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> for more information. </div>
|
|
<p>See the<a href="http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/news/sitenews.html" target="_blank"> HTTP Server: What's New</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> topic for a list of recent enhancements made
|
|
to the HTTP Server for i5/OS™.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to port open source modules</h4><p>Porting
|
|
open source modules to your IBM<sup>®</sup> i5/OS system is now easier than in previous versions.
|
|
Existing modules must be recompiled. See <a href="rzaiethrdprtymod.htm">Set up third party modules for HTTP Server (powered by Apache)</a> for more information.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to logs tagging with CCSID UTF8 (1208)</h4><p>Logs
|
|
are now tagged with CCSID UTF8 (1208). All messages contained in custom, error,
|
|
FRCA, and script logs are encoded in UTF8. Saving logs that are currently
|
|
active no longer causes an error message to be sent to the job log.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to CGI job handling</h4><p>By avoiding unnecessary
|
|
conversions until the CGI CCSIDs and conversion mode are determined specific
|
|
to the configuration, CGI job handling is enhanced. Data is maintained in
|
|
its original encoding until the CGI job is ready to be launched.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to CGI APIs</h4><div class="p">QzsrGetEnvCCSID and QzsrPutEnvCCSID
|
|
are CGI APIs that have been added to allow the environment variable string
|
|
to be encoded in a CCSID other than the job CCSID. QzhbCgiParse now sends
|
|
error messages to the error log instead of the job log. See these topics for
|
|
more information:<ul><li><a href="rzaieapi_qzsrgetenvccsid.htm">Get environment variable with CCSID (QzsrGetEnvCCSID) API</a></li>
|
|

</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to allow CGI jobs to run in more than one language
|
|
from a single Apache server</h4><div class="p">New and existing directives now allow
|
|
CGI jobs to run in more than one language from a single Apache server. The
|
|
CGIJobCCSID directive sets the CGI job CCSID, which can differ from the server
|
|
job CCSID. The CGIJobLocale directive sets the locale environment variable
|
|
for the CGI job to retrieve. The DefaultNetCCSID directive is now allowed
|
|
within a container. The combined use of these directives in a directory
|
|
or virtual host container, allows one CGI program to support language A,
|
|
while in another container a CGI program can support language B. For more
|
|
information, see the information on these directives:<ul><li><a href="rzaiemod_cgi.htm#cgijobccsid">CGIJobCCSID</a></li>
|
|
<li><a href="rzaiemod_cgi.htm#cgijoblocale">CGIJobLocale</a></li>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to ldap.group.memberAttributes</h4><div class="p">The
|
|
ldap.group.memberAttributes directive is enhanced to support all forms of
|
|
LDAP groups; static, dynamic, nested, and hybrid. See these topics for more
|
|
information on the different types of LDAP groups and this directive:<ul><li><a href="../rzahy/rzahygroups.htm">Groups and roles</a></li>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enhancements to support eWLM</h4><p>Support to activate
|
|
the eWLM (Enterprise Workload Management) instrumentation module for HTTP
|
|
Server (powered by Apache) has been added and can be configured using the
|
|
IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface. ARM (Application Response Measurement)
|
|
4.0 APIs are used to classify requests and record the time spent for each
|
|
one. For more information, see <a href="rzaiemod_arm4_ap20.htm">Module mod_arm4_ap20</a>.</p>
