mod_mcpage for lighttpd updated

This is not a huge update for mod_mcpage, but it changes the receive timeout, and adds configuration options for auto ejecting hosts, the server failure limit, and the retry limit. This fixes a problem where if a memcached server goes down lighttpd + mod_mcpage would wait way too long before giving up on memcached. The README.mod_mcpage has more information on how to use the new options. The repository is, of course, at https://github.

mod_mcpage for lighttpd 1.5 svn patch 0.96.1 (working)

This new version of the mod_mcpage only adds one new feature (an option, mcpage.announce, to enable or disable the 'X-served-by-memcached' response header), but features a number of behind the scenes improvements. Internally, the request handling was cleaned up and taking content from the chunkqueue was streamlined. The module will also store pages that were compressed by the backend. If the client sends the appropriate headers, it will receive the pre-compressed page, but if it does not the module will decompress it before sending it to the client.

mod_mcpage for lighttpd 1.5 svn patch 0.94.1 (preliminary)

In preparation for some DK4 stuff, I went and revisited my mod_mcpage work and finally knocked a couple of little things off the list of things to do with it. As usual, this is a patch for lighttpd 1.5. As usual again, there's a tarball too. This patch still only applies to lighttpd 1.5; a version for 1.4 is on the to-do list. In terms of obvious new features, this one doesn't have much.

mod_mcpage for lighttpd 1.5 svn patch 0.92.2 (working)

This is a working mod_mcpage patch for lighttpd 1.5. The issues working with compressed data, mod_deflate, uncompressed data, and some other strange combinations has been ironed out. Local files, fastcgi, and proxy data have been testing with various combinations of mod_deflate being turned on and off (in lighttpd and the backend), and it's all working now. Took some jumping around, too. This module stores content, either local or proxied, in memcached so it can be served out of there rather than hitting the disk or the backend server.

mod_mcpage for lighttpd 1.5 svn patch 0.92.1 (preliminary)

Another preliminary patch for lighttpd 1.5 mod_mcpage has been released. It has all the features of the previous version, with some resolved issues: Checks added so it doesn’t try to load objects larger than 1MB (or a limit you define at compile time) into memcached. Stores Expires: and Cache-Control: HTTP headers. To do: Needs to be non-blocking. Option to MD5 keys Binary & local data needs more testing MIME type checking for compression & appending debug data to pages.
