68      22 March - JK-1.2.28 released                                           
69        The Apache Tomcat team is proud to announce the immediate             
70        availability of Tomcat Connectors 1.2.28. This is a stable release    
71        concentrating mainly on some bug fixes.                               
72                                                                              
73        Please see the ChangeLog for a full list of changes.                  
74                                                                              
75        If you find any bugs while using this release, please fill in the     
76        Bugzilla Bug Report.                                                  
77                                                                              
78        The most important new features in this version are:                  
79                                                                              
80        Better Error Detection for Load Balancer Workers                      
81                                                                              
82        Local and global error states have been improved. You can fine tune   
83        the behaviour with the new "error_escalation_time" attribute (see the 
84        timeouts documentation).                                              
85                                                                              
86        Dynamic Address and Port Change Using the Status Worker               
87                                                                              
88        The status worker now allows you to change the address and the port   
89        of an AJP13 worker on the fly. You can e.g. provision dummy workers   
90        with a port equal to "0", which will be automatically put into        
91        stopped mode during startup. Later, when you want to actually use     
92        thse workers, you set their address and port to the final values.     
93                                                                              
94        Note that already existing connections will go on using the old       
95        address and port. This will be improved in future versions.           
96                                                                              
97        New Data in Status Worker Display                                     
98                                                                              
99        The status worker display now also contains the timestamp of the last 
100        worker errors.                                                        
101                                                                              
102        Improved Proxy Flexibility                                            
103                                                                              
104        You can now overwrite more request metadata before the request gets   
105        send to the backend. This is helpful in case there are other reverse  
106        proxies in front of your web server. A new documentation page         
107        explains this in detail.                                              
108                                                                              
109        Improved IIS Support                                                  
110                                                                              
111        IIS support has been improved especially when using mutltiple         
112        application pools. Furthermore you can now configure the ISAPI plugin 
113        to update the uriworkermap.properies file on a regular interval using 
114        the watchdog thread.                                                  
115                                                                              
116        JNI Worker Deprecation                                                
117                                                                              
118        Workers of type jni are broken since a long time. Since there is no   
119        more use for them, they have been deprecated now, and will be removed 
120        in a future release.

129    2008 News & Status                                                        
130      28 October - JK-1.2.27 released                                         
131        The Apache Tomcat team is proud to announce the immediate             
132        availability of Tomcat Connectors 1.2.27. This is a stable release    
133        adding lots of new features and some bug fixes.                       
134                                                                              
135        Please see the ChangeLog for a full list of changes.                  
136                                                                              
137        If you find any bugs while using this release, please fill in the     
138        Bugzilla Bug Report.                                                  
139                                                                              
140        The most important new features in this version are:                  
141                                                                              
142        Watchdog Thread for Periodic Tasks                                    
143                                                                              
144        The connector has to run some periodic tasks independant of request   
145        processing. Examples are probing or closing down idle backend         
146        connections, adjusting load numbers and recovering workers from error 
147        state.                                                                
148                                                                              
149        Before version 1.2.27 these tasks were done inside the request        
150        processing loop. When a new request came in and the task was due, the 
151        thread handling the request first executed the internal task and then 
152        handled the request. If there were no requests coming in, the tasks   
153        would not run. If any of the tasks took unexpectedly long, the        
154        response time of the request waiting for the finishing of the task    
155        went up.                                                              
156                                                                              
157        Starting with this release you can configure a separate watchdog      
158        thread inside the web server to run all those tasks independantly of  
159        request processing. This new feature is avaliable for the connector   
160        when used with Apache httpd 2.x or with Microsoft IIS. To keep the    
161        behaviour of the new version consistent with previous releases, this  
162        feature is turned off by default. You can activate the watchdog       
163        thread via JkWatchdogInterval for Apache or watchdog_interval for     
164        IIS.                                                                  
165                                                                              
166        Connection Probing                                                    
167                                                                              
168        In previous releases connection probing (checking whether connections 
169        still work) could only be done immediately after a new connection was 
170        established and directly before sending each request. Since we now    
171        have the watchdog thread available, we also added a periodic probing  
172        option, which you can activate with the worker attribute ping_mode.   
173        This will also be useful as a protection against the infamous         
174        firewall idle connection drop.                                        
175                                                                              
176        The older attributes connect_timeout and prepost_timeout still exist  
177        and work the same way they did in previous releases. Since there are  
178        now three different probing options, we recommend to migrate your     
179        configuration to the newer attributes ping_mode, ping_timeout and     
180        connection_ping_interval.                                             
181                                                                              
182        Mount Extensions                                                      
183                                                                              
184        Usually one defines workers and mounts for the connector. A worker    
185        defines a backend we want to talk to and the configuration parameters 
186        of the communication, connection pools etc. The mounts define which   
187        URIs we want to forward to which worker (so we also call a mount an   
188        URI map rule). In version 1.2.27 you can overwrite certain worker     
189        parameter per mount.                                                  
190                                                                              
191        One easy to understand example is reply timeouts. Until this release  
192        you had to specify a reply timeout for the whole worker. But reply    
193        times depend a lot on the type of request. So normally you want to    
194        define a general reply timeout and for some special URLs you need to  
195        relax the reply timeout, because you know those URLs take much longer 
196        to process (like e.g. reporting or other compute intensive tasks).    
197                                                                              
198        Another possible case is the activation status. You might use a load  
199        balancer worker to forward requests to certain webapps in a farm of   
200        Tomcat nodes. If you wanted to update some webapp on one node, you    
201        previously had to stop forwarding requests for all webapps on this    
202        Tomcat node. What was not possible until now, was stopping forwarding 
203        requests restricted to the webapp and the node you wanted to update.  
204                                                                              
205        Starting with this release, you can add so-called rule extensions to  
206        your uriworkermap file to influence worker parameters per mount. This 
207        will work for all Apache versions and for IIS. Remember, that the     
208        uriworkermap file automatically gets reloaded after changes without   
209        web server restart.                                                   
210                                                                              
211        Improved IIS support                                                  
212                                                                              
213        We improved IIS support im various ways. It is now possible to use    
214        multiple IIS 6 application pools with the ISAPI redirector.           
215                                                                              
216        Furthermore some improvements were added as compile time features.    
217        The most notable one is chunked encoding support, which was a major   
218        refactoring and is therefore still considered experimental. You can   
219        download binaries with and without chunked encoding support. In       
220        future versions, chunked encoding will likely be availabe in all      
221        builds.                                                               
222                                                                              
223        Another new feature is an elegant way of configuring error page       
224        redirects. All new features are documented on the documentation page  
225        about configuring IIS.                                                
226                                                                              
227        Enhanced Status Worker                                                
228                                                                              
229        The status worker now can also manage and show statistics for AJP     
230        workers that are not part of a load balancer. Other improvements are  
231        the new dump action, the integration of the new configuration         
232        attributes, showing average request and transfer rates since the last 
233        statistics reset and the ability to display only a single member of a 
234        load balancer.                                                        
235                                                                              
236        Unfortunately we had to change some request parameters used for the   
237        update action of the status worker.                                   
238                                                                              
239        Miscellaneous Improvements                                            
240                                                                              
241        Further enhancements are:                                             
242                                                                              
243          * Configurable session stickyness indicator: cookie name and URL    
244            path parameter name can be freely chosen instead of the servlet   
245            spec compliant JSESSIONID and ;jsessionid.                        
246          * Automatically determining the size of the shared memory segment   
247            needed to accommodate all workers.                                
248          * New connection establishment timeout socket_connect_timeout.      
249          * New timeout connection_acquire_timeout for acquiring a free       
250            connection from the pool.                                         
251          * Improved retry handling by adjusting the meaning of the attribute 
252            retries for AJP workers and for load balancers and by adding the  
253            new retry_interval.                                               
254          * Allowing the web server to provide error pages instead of Tomcat.

617      15 November - JK2 is officially unsupported                             
618                                                                              
619      JK2 has been put in maintainer mode and no further development will     
620      take place. The reason for shutting down JK2 development was the lack   
621      of developers interest. Other reason was lack of users interest in      
622      adopting JK2, caused by configuration complexity when compared to JK.   
623                                                                              
624      The latest official JK2 release is 2.0.4.                               
625                                                                              
626      JK2 will have it's successor within core Apache2.1/2.2 distribution. We 
627      have developed new proxy_ajp that is an addition to the mod_proxy and   
628      uses Tomcat's AJP protocol stack. It is developped in httpd-2.1 and     
629      integrated in it. We have also developed a new proxy_balancer module    
630      for load balancing http and ajp protocol stacks.                        
631                                                                              
632      JK will be fully supported for all other web servers. The next JK       
633      release is planned for the end of November. Lots of code from JK2 has   
634      been ported to JK
