*) Change in internal API: the HTTP modules initialization was moved
from the init module phase to the HTTP postconfiguration phase.
*) Change: now the request body is not read beforehand for the
ngx_http_perl_module: it's required to start the reading using the
$r->has_request_body method.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_perl_module supports the DECLINED return code.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_dav_module supports the incoming "Date" header
line for the PUT method.
*) Feature: the "ssi" directive is available inside the "if" block.
*) Bugfix: a segmentation fault occurred if there was an "index"
directive with variables and the first index name was without
variables; the bug had appeared in 0.1.29.
*) Feature: the "dav_access" directive.
*) Feature: the "if" directive supports the "-d", "!-d", "-e", "!-e",
"-x", and "!-x" operators.
*) Bugfix: a segmentation fault occurred if a request returned a
redirect and some sent to client header lines were logged in the
access log.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_dav_module.
*) Change: the ngx_http_perl_module optimizations.
Thanks to Sergey Skvortsov.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_perl_module supports the $r->request_body_file
method.
*) Feature: the "client_body_in_file_only" directive.
*) Workaround: now on disk overflow nginx tries to write access logs
once a second only.
Thanks to Anton Yuzhaninov and Maxim Dounin.
*) Bugfix: now the "limit_rate" directive more precisely limits rate if
rate is more than 100 Kbyte/s.
Thanks to ForJest.
*) Bugfix: now the IMAP/POP3 proxy escapes the "\r" and "\n" symbols in
login and password to pass authorization server.
Thanks to Maxim Dounin.
*) Feature: the "access_log" supports the "buffer=" parameter.
*) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on platforms different from i386,
amd64, sparc, and ppc; the bug had appeared in 0.3.2.
*) Bugfix: nginx did run on Linux parisc.
*) Feature: nginx now does not start under FreeBSD if the sysctl
kern.ipc.somaxconn value is too big.
*) Bugfix: if a request was internally redirected by the
ngx_http_index_module module to the ngx_http_proxy_module or
ngx_http_fastcgi_module modules, then the index file was not closed
after request completion.
*) Feature: the "proxy_pass" can be used in location with regular
expression.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_rewrite_filter_module module supports the
condition like "if ($HTTP_USER_AGENT ~ MSIE)".
*) Bugfix: nginx started too slow if the large number of addresses and
text values were used in the "geo" directive.
*) Change: a variable name must be declared as "$name" in the "geo"
directive. The previous variant without "$" is still supported, but
will be removed soon.
*) Feature: the "%{VARIABLE}v" logging parameter.
*) Feature: the "set $name value" directive.
*) Bugfix: gcc 4.0 compatibility.
*) Feature: the --with-openssl-opt=OPTIONS autoconfiguration directive.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_ssi_filter_module and the ssi,
ssi_silent_errors, and ssi_min_file_chunk directives. The 'echo
var="HTTP_..." default=""' and 'echo var="REMOTE_ADDR"' commands are
supported.
*) Feature: the %request_time log parameter.
*) Feature: if the request has no the "Host" header line, then the
"proxy_preserve_host" directive set this header line to the first
server name of the "server_name" directive.
*) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on platforms different from i386,
amd64, sparc, and ppc; the bug had appeared in 0.1.22.
*) Bugfix: the ngx_http_autoindex_module now shows the information not
about the symlink, but about file or directory it points to.
*) Bugfix: the %apache_length parameter logged the negative length of
the response header if the no response was transferred to a client.
*) Bugfix: in the ngx_http_autoindex_module if the long file names were
in the listing.
*) Feature: the "^~" modifier in the location directive.
*) Feature: the proxy_max_temp_file_size directive.
*) Feature: the ngx_http_autoindex_module and the autoindex directive.
*) Feature: the proxy_set_x_url directive.
*) Bugfix: proxy module may get caught in an endless loop when sendfile
is not used.
