Wed Nov 29 13:00:00 2017 esrolfeAATTsuse.de
- Introduces a new check that logs a vulnerability warning if Passenger is run with root permissions while the directory permissions of (parts of) its root dir allow modifications by non-root users.
Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2016 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.30
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.30
- -------------
* Changes mbuf block size from 512 to 4096 bytes to better fit modern requests and significantly speed up disk buffering.
* [Nginx] Fixes PCRE checksum after the preferred version update in 5.0.29 (contributed by: clemensg).
* [Apache] Fixes buffer limit crash on large file upload (when core disk buffer can\'t keep up with client for some time), and limits per-client buffer memory usage to 130 KB. Closes GH-1620.
* Fixes potential hang when an UnseekableSocket gets serialized to json. Closes GH-1838.
Thu Jun 23 14:00:00 2016 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.29
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.29
- -------------
* Fixes the FreeBSD build breaking due to the `-ldl` flag introduced by the LVE integration patch (5.0.28). Closes GH-1805.
* Fixes per-application interpreter override (ruby, node, python) being ignored in mass deployment mode. Closes GH-1818.
* Fixes incomplete refactor from 5.0.27 that could, under specific conditions, lead to a Passenger crash. Closes GH-1794.
* [Apache] Remove unused code that caused a crash in configurations with thousands of VirtualHost entries. Closes GH-1676.
* [Nginx] Fixes use of invalid logfile name (memory already released) in backup log redirection code. Possibly related to GH-1774.
* [Nginx] The preferred Nginx version is now 1.10.1 (previously 1.10.0).
* [Nginx] The preferred PCRE version is now 8.39 (previously 8.34).
* [Standalone] Passenger Standalone now supports /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr as log file path (via `--log-file` or Passengerfile.json). This is especially useful in Docker containers. In previous versions logging to those paths did not work, resulting in nothing getting logged at all.

- add fix-undeclared-isnan.patch (from https://github.com/boostorg/math/commit/fbd1393858719c7bda7d251f742950c1bc691ea8)
Tue May 10 14:00:00 2016 ctAATTkki.org
- update to version 5.0.28
* Finalizes the fix (5.0.26) for the `rails server` command integration to prevent \"missing on_event\" errors. Closes GH-1768.
* Fixes missing -fPIC in Nginx dynamic module compilation (5.0.26) on Linux (rewrite of a patch by Andrei Belov). Closes GH-1793.
* Fixes memory leak that could occur whenever more than 1024 concurrent requests are handled (more likely since the higher concurrency support options from 5.0.24). Closes GH-1797.
* Integrates with CloudLinux LVE and CageFS (security checks and a new option PassengerLveMinUid). Thanks to Oleksiy Shchukin from CloudLinux Inc. for contributing this.
* Fixes the Nginx build when the PCRE library is not available (such as when compiling with `--without-http_rewrite_module`). Closes GH-1796.
* Extends `passenger-memory-stats` filter to show the instance dir toucher too (as well as the core in valgrind debug runs).
* Changes the default for friendly error pages to \"off\" unless the environment is set to \"development\", rather than \"on\" unless \"staging\" or \"production\". Closes GH-1782.
* [Nginx] The preferred Nginx version is now 1.10.0 (previously 1.8.1).
- changes in release 5.0.27
* Fixes encoding issue for Ruby apps that resulted in a 0-byte response body. This occurred when the Ruby native support lib was not used and the app outputted an encoding that doesn\'t mix with UTF-8 (like UTF-16). Closes GH-1763.
* Fixes Passenger Core and application processes staying on the Watchdogs OOM score (unkillable) when user switching is set to off. Closes GH-1631.
* Supports Debian GNU/kFreeBSD build. Based on contribution by stevenc99.
* Switches a number of places in the Passenger Core over to using the monotonic clock instead of the wallclock for robustness against clock time-stepping.
* Slightly improves out-of-memory detection in some subroutines.
* Fixes incomplete libuv upgrade: some build files were not autoregenerated during the upgrade from 1.5.0 to 1.8.0 in the previous release.
* Warnings about 502 responses that are caused by applications aborting their output while the client is no longer connected (e.g. due to half-close event, reported since 5.0.26) are now reduced to debug level.
* Fixes automatic compilation of Ruby\'s native_support library in case Passenger was installed through Debian or RPM packages. Closes GH-1778.
* Fixes memory leak when buffering large request/response bodies to disk (which happens as soon as the 100 KB memory buffer is full).
* Fixes crash if an application spawn fails and a non-UTF8 character appears in the spawn output. Closes GH-1601.
* Updates the `rails server` command integration (from 5.0.25) to prevent \"missing on_event\" errors. Closes GH-1768. Update: not all required code made it to the release, the final fix is delivered in 5.0.28.
* [Union Station] Fixes a crash that occurs if all of the following conditions are met: 1) Union Station support is enabled, 2) the client sent at least one header containing the empty string, 3) the application responds with a 4xx or 5xx status. Closes GH-1776.

Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2016 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.26
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.26
- -------------
* `passenger-status --show=server` now reports the speed at which new requests are accepted.
* `passenger-status --show=server` now reports `last_data_send_time` and `last_data_receive_time` which can be used to troubleshoot long-running requests (for example, to see if a websocket heartbeat is stuck).
* Passenger now reports TCP half-closing events to Node.js and Meteor applications, which allows them to detect request body and WebSocket closes without having to send data to the client.
* Fixes outputting Content-Length and Transfer-Encoding headers on HEAD requests for Ruby apps. These headers were omitted in previous versions on HEAD requests.
* Bumps the default socket backlog size from 1024 to 2048.
* Upgrades libuv to version 1.8.0.
* When using our RPM packages, system SELinux policy upgrades no longer break the Passenger SELinux policy. Closes GH-1663.
* [Apache] Fixes compilation against Apache installations which include `-pie` in CFLAGS. Closes GH-1756.
* [Nginx, Standalone] Bumps default Nginx worker_connections from 1024 to 4096 (effectively 2048 because of internal reverse proxy)
* [Nginx, Standalone] Introduces the option `core_file_descriptor_ulimit` and `app_file_descriptor_ulimit`, for setting the file descriptor ulimits of the Passenger core and the application, respectively.
* [Nginx] Passenger can now be [compiled as an Nginx dynamic module](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/install/nginx/install_as_nginx_module.html#dynamic-module). Thanks to Ruslan Ermilov from NGINX Inc for contributing this.
* [Standalone] Prints a warning when an unsupported configuration option in Passengerfile.json is set.
* [Standalone] Fixes \"address already in use\" errors when using the builtin engine.
* [Enterprise] The rolling restart feature now waits until the old process is completely gone (drained its request queue, process exited) before proceeding with rolling restarting the next process. This results in friendlier resource usage during rolling restart.
* [Union Station] Fixes custom logging time arguments getting overwritten by current time for Ruby apps (so some sub-blocks like \"framework request processing\" appeared shorter than they were). This could happen since the switch to monotonic clock in 5.0.22.
Fri Feb 19 13:00:00 2016 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.25
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.25
- -------------
* Integrates into the `rails server` command. Please learn more at [the Passenger + Rails integration documentation](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/dev/ruby/rails_integration.html).
* Adds explicit support for Action Cable. Please learn more at the [Passenger Library](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/dev/ruby/rails_integration.html#action_cable).
* Removes packages for Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid and Debian 6. Ubuntu 15.04 and Debian 6 are still supported, we just don\'t supply packages for them anymore. If you are an Ubuntu 15.04 or Debian 6 user and you want to use Passenger >= 5.0.25, then please upgrade your distribution, or install Passenger from RubyGems/tarball.
* Fixes a potential crash due to memory corruption in code for `passenger-config reopen-logs`.
* Fixes a potential crash in the large (inbound/outbound) file buffering code.
* Fixes a crash that occurs when using Nginx + HTTPS + Sub-requests. Closes GH-1724.
* Fixes a crash that occurs when using Nginx + syslog and a logfile for Passenger. Also fixes edge cases where the Nginx logpath would override the Passenger logpath. Closes GH-1514 (again).
* [Union Station] Fixes a potential crash due to a wrong limit on snprintf (introduced in 5.0.24 by GH-1633). Closes GH-1744.
* [Union Station] Fixes Union Station Node.js request introspection to allow for application.use method chaining. Closes GH-1745.
* [Union Station] Fixes information about sinks sometimes missing from `passenger-status --show=union_station`.
* [Union Station] When one or more Union Station gateways are suffering from technical difficulties, the Union Station support code now tries more quickly to reestablish the connection.
* [Standalone] Don\'t reject the value 0 (meaning no limit) for `--max-request-queue-size`. Closes GH-1743.
* [Standalone] Makes the `--address` option work more reliably if the passed hostname may resolve to multiple addresses. For example, if you pass `--address localhost` then previous versions could fail because Passenger thinks it\'s an IPv6 address (::1) while Nginx thinks it\'s an IPv4 address (127.0.0.1). Hostname resolution is now done in a consistent manner.
* [Standalone] Adds the `--unlimited-concurrency-path` configuration option.
* [Standalone] Adds IPv6 support to the builtin engine.
Tue Feb 2 13:00:00 2016 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.24
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.24
- -------------
* Fixes a crash when the new `force_max_concurrent_requests_per_process` option (5.0.22) was used for non-Node.js apps (e.g. Ruby). Closes GH-1720.
* Fixes Solaris compilation. This was a regression due to the patch for GH-1643 in 5.0.22. Closes GH-1694, GH-1701.
* Logs for [Union Station](https://www.unionstationapp.com) provide more information about request queueing. Closes GH-1633.
* Also log HTTP headers to Union Station for HTTP 4xx responses (extends the header logging for HTTP 5xx that was added in 5.0.22)
* Fixes cases where compilation failure of (optional) native utils was not reported.
* On Ruby, no longer traps SIGEXIT. This fixes erroneously setting `$ERROR_INFO` in `at_exit` callbacks. Closes GH-1730.
* Fixes a wrong loop exit condition that could cause a deadlock with 100% CPU usage by Passenger core. Closes GH-1709, GH-1732.
* Adds `socket_backlog` option to configure the Passenger Core socket backlog. For use with e.g. \"Resource temporarily unavailable while connecting to upstream\" errors. Closes GH-1726.
* [Nginx] The preferred Nginx version is now 1.8.1 (previously 1.8.0).
* [Standalone] Fixes the default value of the `load_shell_envvars` option. It\'s supposed to be disabled by default, but due to a typo it was enabled by default.
Tue Dec 22 13:00:00 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.23
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.23
- -------------
* Fixes the request acceptor error handling timeout. When an error occurs while Passenger is accepting a request (for example, when Passenger has run out of file descriptors), Passenger is supposed to wait for 3 seconds before trying again. Because of a typo, Passenger actually waited 3 milliseconds.
* [Enterprise] Fixed a regression in the Passenger Standalone Nginx config template that breaks the Mass Deployment feature.
* The mime type for serving static XHTML files is updated. We no longer use the mobile profile, so it is recognized by desktop browsers. Closes GH-1695.
* Improves error messages about Ruby native support to indicate the optional nature. Passenger is able to operate even without the native support extension, but that wasn\'t clear enough to some users, causing them to think of the old messages as errors.
* [Standalone, Nginx] When using the new `abort_websockets_on_process_shutdown` configuration option, Passenger waited for the app to close without signaling it that shutdown was in progress. Node.js apps now get a SIGINT. Closes GH-1702.
* With friendly error pages off Passenger would still show a trace (referencing only Passenger code) for unusual spawn errors. This has been changed to a generic error message. Closes GH-1704.
Wed Dec 9 13:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 5.0.22 (boo#956281)
- Fixes a header collision vulnerability (CVE-2015-7519, medium
severity). Please see our blog for detailed vulnerability
description and advisory. Thanks to the SUSE security team for
reporting this issue.
- [Apache] Fixes compatibility with Apache 2.4.17\'s
mod_autoindex. Fix contributed by Eric Covener. Closes GH-1642.
- [Standalone] Passenger Standalone now [accepts configuration
options from environment
variables](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/config/standalone/intro.html).
This makes using Passenger Standalone significantly easier on
Heroku or on systems that follow the 12-factor principle.
Closes GH-1661.
- [Standalone] The Nginx configuration template has been cleaned
up. It is now significantly easier to edit the Nginx
configuration template without breaking compatibility with
future versions.
- [Standalone] The `passenger start` command now performs a
sanity check on the internally generated Nginx configuration
file and advises you accordingly when there is a problem.
- [Standalone] The `passenger status` and `passenger stop`
commands now respect Passengerfile.json. Closes GH-1593.
- [Standalone] Passenger Standalone on Solaris now properly tails
the application log file.
- [Standalone] Fixes a problem with Passenger Standalone\'s
builtin engine exiting at startup when run on Solaris.
- [Standalone] `passenger start` now accepts the `--envvar`
command line option for passing environment variables to the
application.
- [Standalone] `passenger start` now accepts the `--memory-limit`
configuration option.
- [Standalone] `passenger start` now accepts the
`--max-request-queue-size` configuration option.
- [Standalone] `passenger start` now accepts the
`--debug-nginx-config` configuration option. This option allows
you to view the Nginx configuration file that Passenger
Standalone generates internally.
- [Standalone, Nginx] Introduces a new configuration option:
`abort_websockets_on_process_shutdown`. By default, when
Passenger shuts down or restarts an application process, it
will abort associated Websocket connections. This option allows
you to disable that behavior. Closes GH-1686.
- Introduces a new configuration option:
`force_max_concurrent_requests_per_process`. This option is
mostly useful for making dynamic process scaling work in
Node.js and Meteor apps.
- Various administration tools, such as `passenger-status`, no
longer raise an flock EBADF error on Solaris. Closes GH-1643.
- The `passenger-config reopen-logs` command, when used in
combination with Passenger Standalone and the Nginx engine, now
also instructs Nginx to reopen its log files. Closes GH-1674.
- Fixes Passenger erroneously adding a `Content-Length` or
`Transfer-Encoding` header to Ruby HTTP 204 No Content
responses. Closes GH-1595.
- Fixes Union Station logging of Rack response body actions.
- The `passenger-config restart-app` command, when given
`--ignore-app-not-running`, now properly exits with a zero
status when one or more applications are running, but none of
them belonging to the invoking user. Closes GH-1655.
- The `passenger-config validate-install` command no longer
prints false warnings about duplicate Passenger installs on
systems that use RBenv. Closes GH-1627.
- Fixes race conditions in the automatic building of the Ruby
native support extension. Closes GH-1570.
- [Enterprise] Fixes compatibility with byebug 7.0. Closes
GH-1662.
- Support Union Station logging for Node.js applications, with
Express/MongoDB automatically supported.
- The Ruby Union Station hooks no longer abort with a fatal error
when the application does not call the Union Station
initializer method during startup. The error is now only
logged.
- In case of an error response (HTTP 5xx), Union Station logging
will also contain request headers.
- The Union Station hooks are now more resilient against
environment variable problems.
- rebase suse.patch to apply cleanly again
Mon Nov 23 13:00:00 2015 adrianAATTsuse.de
- fix http header filtering to be in sync with apache2
Mon Nov 23 13:00:00 2015 adrianAATTsuse.de
- fix sle 11 build (disabling docs)
Mon Oct 26 13:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 5.0.21
- Properly handles Ruby applications that output the
`Content-Length` and `Transfer-Encoding` headers in
non-standard casing, e.g. `Content-length`. Closes GH-1517.
- Fixes Ruby application loading incompatibilities caused by the
use of absolute paths. Closes GH-1596.
- Fixes OpenSSL detection problems on OS X 10.11 El Capitan. OS X
10.11 no longer includes OpenSSL headers, so Passenger will
suggest and use OpenSSL from Homebrew. Closes GH-1630.
- Introduces the [secure HTTP
headers](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/indepth/meteor/secure_http_headers.html)
feature for Node.js and Meteor apps. This mechanism allows
Passenger to send per-request information to the application,
while guaranteeing that this information is not spoofed by the
client.
- Per-request Apache environment variables are now passed to
Node.js and Meteor apps through the
[`!~Passenger-Envvars`](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/indepth/nodejs/apache_per_request_envvars.html)
secure header.
- Fixes some unintentional caching of request-specific
environment variables. Closes GH-1479.
- For Node.js applications, Passenger now calls
`process.emit(\'message\', \'shutdown\')` whenever Passenger shuts
down an application process. This is the same hook as used by
PM2, allowing applications which use the PM2 graceful shutdown
mechanism to be run on Passenger without changes.
- [Enterprise] Fixes a bug in passenger-irb where printing
strings larger than 64 KB would cause it to crash.
- [Enterprise] Fixes the `passenger-config restart-app` command
so that it performs a non-rolling-restart unless
`--rolling-restart` is given as command line option, as per the
documentation. Previously, `passenger-config restart-app`
without `--rolling-restart` would perform a rolling restart if
rolling restarts are configured in the configuration file, but
this contradicted documented behavior. Closes GH-1634.
- rebase suse.patch to apply cleanly again

- update to version 5.0.20
- Fixes memory management bugs in Union Station support.
- Improves the error handling in Union Station support.
- `passenger-config validate-install` now properly handles CR
characters in Apache configuration files.
- changes from 5.0.19
- Fixes an encoding crash in `passenger-memory-stats` on OS X in
case one or more processes are running on the system with names
containing UTF-8 characters. Closes GH-1603.
- [Ruby] Fixes handling of HTTP 205 responses, which would cause
client connections to freeze.
- Improves Union Station data collection: more Rack I/O events
are now logged. The time taken to write out and to close the
Rack response body are now logged.
- Improves Union Station data sending: errors are now logged more
clearly, and DNS errors are now handled more robustly.
- Improves Union Station troubleshooting: errors can now be
diagnosed by running `passenger-status --show=union_station`.
- Refactors the Union Station Ruby hook code. They have been
extracted to external gems. However, they are still bundled
with Passenger for ease of use.
- drop all patches and replaced with a git-format-patch series:
- added patches
- 0001-fix-shebang.patch
- 0002-load-system-passenger-libs.patch
- 0003-use-shared-path-for-shared-resources.patch

Thu Sep 10 14:00:00 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.18
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.18
- -------------
* Fixes more memory corruption issues in the palloc subsystem.
* Fixes memory corruption issues in the Passenger core that may occur if the application sets many response headers. The issue was caused by an off-by-one bug.
Tue Sep 8 14:00:00 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.17
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.17
- -------------
* Adds packages for Ubuntu 15.10 \"Wily\", even though Ubuntu 15.10 hasn\'t been released yet.
* Fixes some memory corruption issues in the palloc subsystem. Closes GH-1587.
* Fixes the Node.js `PhusionPassenger.on(\'exit\')` event. This event worked if you restart the app or detach an application process, but not if you stop Passenger.
* Fixes support for `passenger_pre_start` URLs that contain very long authentication strings. This was caused by the fact that our Base64 encoder generated unexpected newlines.
* [Standalone] Improves application prestarting. Application prestarting is now available in combination with the \'builtin\' engine, and now works when SSL is used.
Tue Aug 25 14:00:00 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 5.0.16
see installed CHANGELOG
Release 5.0.16
- -------------
* Allows independent configuration of Union Station gateway address, port and certificate. Closes GH-1543.
* Supports seek() such that body.rewind works when using Rack middleware that uses Zlib::GzipReader (e.g. for compressed requests). Closes GH-1553.
* [Apache] Improves detection of Apache configuration file problems. Closes GH-1577.
* [Enterprise] Fixes installation of the Passenger Enterprise Apache module on Debian Testing.
* Fixes logging of HTTP response code for Union Station. This regression was introduced by Passenger 5. Closes GH-1581.
* Adds a new subcommand `passenger-config about support-binaries-dir`.
* Fixes a regression in the Node.js loader with regard to custom startup files. This bug was introduced in 5.0.14. Closes GH-1557 (again).
* Fixes a crash when a Ruby application is accessed through a sub-URI and a root virtual host at the same time.
Wed Aug 12 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- make sure we set up /{var/,}run/passenger on install
Wed Aug 12 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 5.0.15
- Support SHA256 digests for the Rails asset pipeline, as used by
Sprockets 3.x.
- Support for JRuby 9.0.0.0. Closes GH-1562.
- Fixes some bugs in Union Station support, which causes some
data (such as controller information and exceptions) to not be
logged.
- The old Users Guides have been deprecated in favor of the
[Passenger Library](https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/).
The Users Guides now redirect to appropriate sections in the
Passenger Library.
- additional changes in 5.0.14
- [Standalone] Relative path handling has been improved. In
previous versions, relative paths were not handled in a
consistent manner. Relative paths are now handled consistently
according to the following rules:
- If a relative path is given via a command line option, then
it is relative to the current working directory.
- If a relative path is given via Passengerfile.json, then it
is relative to Passengerfile.json. Closes GH-1557.
- [Standalone] The `--disable-turbocaching` now works with the
Nginx engine.
- additional changes in 5.0.13
- The `passenger-config restart-app` command now supports the
option `--ignore-passenger-not-running`. If this option is
given, the command will exit normally instead of exiting with
an error, if Passenger is not running. This option is useful in
deployments involving Passenger Standalone. In an initial
deployment, Passenger Standalone may not yet be running.
Passing this option allows you to ignore that issue.
- SELinux policy issues in the RPMs have been fixed.
- [Apache] `passenger-config reopen-logs` didn\'t work on Apache
unless you explicitly set `PassengerLogFile`. This has now been
fixed.
- [Standalone] Due to some internal refactorings, the Passenger
Standalone Nginx configuration template has changed. If you
used a custom Nginx configuration template, please merge our
latest changes into it.
- additional changes in 5.0.12
- [Enterprise] Fixed passenger-irb. It was broken in 5.0.10
because of the change that made using admin commands without
sudo possible.
- additional changes in 5.0.11
- In 5.0.10, admin tools such as `passenger-status` and
`passenger-config restart-app` display an authorization error
if they are run without sudo, while at the same time Passenger
isn\'t serving any applications. Since this is confusing, they
have now been modified to display a more appropriate error
message.
- Fixes a bug in the RPMs that prevent admin tools such as
`passenger-status` and `passenger-config restart-app` from
working when they are invoked without root privileges.
- Fixes a bug on OS X that prevent admin tools such as
`passenger-status` and `passenger-config restart-app` from
detecting Passenger instance directories when they are invoked
without root privileges. Closes GH-1535.
- Fixes a bug that causes Passenger not to work if the HOME
environment variable is not set.
- Fixes compatibility with non-Rails Ruby apps that require the
actionview gem. Closes GH-1547.
- Fixes some non-fatal \"permission denied\" error that may
occasionally occur if user switching is turned off. Closes
GH-1541.
- Relative values for the `pid_file` and `log_file` options in
Passengerfile.json are now supported.
- If Passengerfile.json contains a syntax error, Passenger
Standalone now correctly prints an error message instead of
crashing.
- Sending a SIGABRT signal to a Ruby process now properly makes
it terminate.
- The `passenger-config restart-app` command now accepts `.` as
parameter, which it will interpreter as \"restart the app in the
current working directory\". Closes GH-1386.
- [Apache] Setting `PassengerLogLevel` no longer redirects
Apache\'s own stderr to that log file. Closes GH-1373.
- [Standalone] Passenger Standalone\'s Nginx engine now includes
the RealIP module. Closes GH-1389.
- [Standalone] The `--max-preloader-idle-time` option has been
added.
- additional changes in 5.0.10
- It is now possible to run `passenger-status`, `passenger-config
restart-app` and other admin commands without using sudo. When
run without sudo, these admin commands will allow you to
operate on apps and processes that are owned by the user that
invoked the admin command. Closes GH-1392.
- Fixes a crash introduces in 5.0.9 due to not properly
initializing a variable. Closes GH-1530.
- The `passenger-config reopen-logs` command now works by
instructing the Watchdog process to reopen the log file, while
instructing the other Passenger processes to re-inerhit the log
file from the Watchdog instead of trying to reopen the log file
on their own. This makes log file reopening more robust. Closes
GH-1452.
- `passenger-config restart-app` no longer leaves the terminal in
a state with black background. Closes GH-1526.
- `passenger-config admin-command` has been renamed to
`passenger-config api-call` in order to avoid confusion with
any potential admin interfaces that we will introduce in the
future.
- If Union Station support is enabled, process and system metrics
weren\'t being sent correctly to Union Station. This has been
fixed.
- [Enterprise] Fixes the fact that the Passenger Enterprise RPM
didn\'t correctly set SELinux permissions on its own files.
- [Apache] passenger-install-apache2-module no longer aborts with
an error if the Apache configuration file contains errors.
Closes GH-1525.
- [Apache] Fixes a typo that would cause
passenger-install-apache2-module to crash on Red Hat and CentOS
systems on which the SELinux command line tools are not
installed. Closes GH-1527.
- additional changes in 5.0.9
- The casing of original headers as generated by the application
are now preserved, instead of being downcased. This fixes
compatibility issues with broken HTTP clients. Closes GH-1436.
- Internal refactoring: we\'ve replaced libeio with libuv. This
makes some of our code simpler. Closes GH-1428.
- When the passenger-status tool tries to cleanup a stale
instance directory, it will no longer abort with an error when
it fails to do that. It will now merely print a warning. Fixes
[StackOverflow question
30354732](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30354732/cap-aborted-capistrano-aborts-rails-deploy-while-attempting-to-chown-tmp-p/30357100#30357100).
- Fixes compilation problems on Solaris.
- The Ruby handler has been made more robust. Previously, it was
possible for applications to corrupt connections by returning
incorrect Rack responses. This may cause connections to get
stuck. The Rack handler has been hardened to ensure that
connections will never get corrupted or stuck. Closes GH-1512.
- The Ruby handler now closes the Rack response body even when
the socket connection is hijacked by the application. The Rack
specification is unclear about what to do in this case, and
different Ruby app servers do different things. We have found
that by closing the body object anyway, we maximize
compatibility with existing Rack middlewares and apps, such as
Rack::Lock. Background information about this issue can be
found at
https://github.com/ngauthier/tubesock/issues/10#issuecomment-72539461.
- Fixes a crash that could occur if some HTTP request headers are
present, but have the empty value. Closes GH-1524.
- Fixes a permission problem that prevents the web server from
communicating with Passenger when user switching is off. Closes
GH-1520.
- Fixes a few small one-time memory leaks in the Passenger agent.
This wraps up the workitems discovered in valgrind runs on
earlier versions.
- Fixes use of uninitialized metrics. This could happen for a
brief moment after spawning.
- [Apache] If you pass the `--apxs2-path` parameter to
`passenger-install-apache2-module`, and the apxs2 path that you
specified is not in PATH, then the installer would think that
Apache installation is broken. This has been fixed.
- [Apache] A `Connection: close` header that was used for
internal communication between Passenger processes was being
leaked to the client, which breaks HTTP keep-alive connections.
This has been fixed. Closes GH-1516.
- [Nginx] The preferred Nginx version is now 1.8.0. It was
previously 1.6.3.
- [Nginx] Passenger now passes to the application the raw URI as
sent by the client, as long as Nginx didn\'t modify the URI
(e.g. as part of rewrite rules). This means that escaped
slashes (%2F) in the URI now work correctly and out-of-the-box
as long as there are no applicable rewrite rules.
- [Nginx] Fixes that crash that would occur if Nginx is
configured to log to syslog. And to prevent log messages from
disappearing into a black hole, Passenger will now ask you to
set `passenger_log_file` if Nginx is configured to log to
syslog. Closes GH-1514.
- [Standalone] Prevents an existing instance from being shut down
if starting a new instance fails.
- additional changes in 5.0.8
- We now supply Debian 8 and Ubuntu 15.04 packages. Closes
GH-1494 and GH-1400.
- We now supply Red Hat 6, Red Hat 7, CentOS 6 and CentOS 7
packages.
- We no longer supply Ubuntu 10.04 packages because Ubuntu 10.04
is no longer supported by Canonical.
- Fixes a Passenger crash (SIGSEGV) that occurs occasionally when
out-of-band garbage collection is enabled. Closes GH-1469.
- Fixes a Passenger crash (SIGSEGV) that occurs occasionally with
redirects to relative URLs. Closes GH-1513.
- Fixes cases when Passenger shuts down more processes than is
allowed by the `min_instances` limit. Closes GH-1500.
- Fixes \"Bad Gateway\" errors that would occur when an application
sets the X-Sendfile or X-Accel-Redirect header, together with a
non-empty response body. Closes GH-1498.
- Fixes the fact that Passenger agent processes don\'t lower their
privilege when user switching is turned off.
- Fixes autodetection of Apache on Gentoo. Closes GH-1510.
- Fixes compilation problems on Solaris. Closes GH-1508.
- [Standalone] Adds the `--pool-idle-time` command line
parameter.
- [Standalone] Adds the `--auto` command line parameter for
running non-interactively. This supresses prompts. Closes
GH-1511.
Mon May 18 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 5.0.7
- Supports changed way of specifying settings for (non-bundled)
Meteor apps. Closes GH-1403.
- Fixes an integer-to-string conversion bug in the code
responsible for buffering chunked request bodies. This bug
could cause the PassengerAgent to crash due to an exception.
Thanks to Marcus Rückert of SUSE for reporting this.
- Request-specific environment variables are no longer cached.
This fixes a number of issues, such as Shibboleth not working
properly and conflicts between HTTPS and non-HTTPS virtual
hosts. Closes GH-1472.
- Fixes a memory corruption bug that would be triggered when
using `passenger_base_uri`. The memory corruption bug resided
in the code for resolving symlinks. Closes GH-1388.
- Re-introduced signal catchers during shutdown, to allow clean
shutdown in Foreman. Closes GH-1454.
- `passenger-status --show=xml` no longer outputs the non-XML
header by default. This fixes a regression as reported in a
comment in GH-1136.
- Passenger now prefers to load Rack and Bundler from RubyGems
instead of from `vendor_ruby`. This solves some issues with
Rack and Bundler on Debian systems. Closes GH-1480 and GH-1478.
- The turbocache no longer caches responses that contain the
`X-Sendfile` or the `X-Accel-Redirect` header.
- The preferred Nginx version has been upgraded to 1.6.3.
- The logging agent no longer aborts with an error if one of the
Passenger root directory\'s parent directories is not
world-executable. Closes GH-1487.
- [Standalone] It is now possible to configure the Ruby, Node.js
and Python executable to use in Passenger Standalone through
the command line options --ruby, --nodejs and --python. Closes
GH-1442.
- [Standalone] Running `passenger start --engine=builtin
- -daemonize` would fail with a timeout error. This has been
fixed.
- [Standalone] Running `passenger start --nginx-version=XXX`
would crash. This has been fixed. Closes GH-1490.
- [Apache] Fixed some issues with X-Sendfile. Closes GH-1376.
- [Apache] If the installer fails to autodetect Apache while the
installer is running as a normal user, it will now ask you to
give it root privileges. Closes GH-1289.
- [Apache] The installer now validates your Apache configuration
file to check for common problems. The validator can also be
accessed separately by running `passenger-config
validate-install --validate-apache2`.
- [Nginx] Introduces the `passenger_read_timeout` option for rare
cases when server needs more than the default 10 minute
timeout. Contributed by pkmiec. Closes
[GH-PR-34](https://github.com/phusion/passenger/pull/34).
- [Nginx] The Nginx module now looks for index.html if the path
ends in / so that it works intuitively, without needing to use
try_files.
- Fixes wrong memory address display in crash dumps. Thanks to
thoughtpolice for pointing it out.
- Fixes an ugly backtrace that would be shown if an invalid
request is made to an application process using the private
HTTP interface. Contributed by jbergler. Closes GH-1311.
- Various documentation improvements. Closes
[GH-PR-1332](https://github.com/phusion/passenger/pull/1332),
[GH-PR-1354](https://github.com/phusion/passenger/pull/1354),

- drop 3cd918c27e7015d5e60106f4574ea439fc4a16da.patch: included in
update
Thu Apr 16 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to passenger-4.0.50_load_system_passenger_libs.patch:
we still had 2 places that tried to load the libraries from the
relative path instead of the installed library.
- pull 3cd918c27e7015d5e60106f4574ea439fc4a16da.patch until 5.0.7
is released
Thu Apr 2 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- use intree libebio as well. our system copy seems to be broken.
Thu Apr 2 14:00:00 2015 asnAATTcryptomilk.org
- Fix temp directory path in mod_passenger.conf
Tue Mar 31 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- use intree libev again. according to passenger upstream it is
patched with things they need which are not in upstream libev.
Tue Mar 31 14:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 5.0.6
- The turbocache no longer caches responses for which the
Cache-Control header contains \"no-cache\". Please note that
\"no-cache\" does not mean \"do not cache this response\". Instead,
it means \"any caching servers may only serve the cached
response after validating it\". Since the turbocache does not
support validation, we\'ve chosen to skip caching instead.
Coincidentally, this change \"fixes\" problems with applications
that erroneously use \"no-cache\" as a flag for \"do not cache
this response\". What these applications should actually use is
\"no-store\". We recommend the developers of such applications to
change their caching headers in this manner, because even if
Passenger doesn\'t unintentionally cache the response, any
intermediate proxies that visitors are behind may still cache
the response.
- Fixes a number of memory leaks. Memory was leaked upon
processing a request with multiple headers, upon processing a
response with multiple headers, and upon processing a response
with Set-Cookie headers. Every time such a request or response
was processed, 512 bytes of memory was leaked due to improperly
dereferencing relevant memory buffers. Closes GH-1455.
- Fixes various bugs related to Union Station data collection.
Union Station is our upcoming application analytics and
performance monitoring SaaS platform. It is opt-in: no data is
collected unless you turn the feature on.
- Fixes a Union Station-related file descriptor leak. Closes
GH-1439.
- Fixes some bugs w.r.t. use of uninitialized memory.
- More informative error message if a support binary is not
found, including a resolution hint. Closes GH-1395.
- [Apache] `SetEnv` variables are now passed as Rack/CGI/request
variables. This was also the case in Passenger 4, but not in
Passenger 5.0.0-5.0.5. We\'ve restored the old behavior because
the behavior in 5.0.0-5.0.5 breaks certain Apache modules such
as Shibboleth. Closes GH-1446.
- [Standalone] PID and log files now correctly created if user
specifies relative path.
Wed Mar 25 13:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- updated to version 5.0.5
- Fixes various crashes due to use of uninitialized memory. One
such crash is documented in GH-1431.
- Fixes a connection stall in the Apache module. Closes GH-1425.
- Fixes a potential read-past-buffer bug in string-to-integer
conversion routines. Thanks to dcb314 for spotting this. Closes
GH-1441.
- Fixes a compilation problem on Solaris. This problem was caused
by the fact that `tm_gmtoff` is not supported on that platform.
Closes GH-1435.
- There is now an API endpoint for force disconnecting a client:
`passenger-config admin-command DELETE /server/
name>.json`. Closes GH-1246.
- Fixes some file descriptor leaks. These leaks were caused by
the fact that keep-alive connections with application processes
were not being closed properly. Closes GH-1439.
- In order to more easily debug future file descriptor leaks,
we\'ve introduced the `PassengerFileDescriptorLogFile` (Apache)
and `passenger_file_descriptor_log_file` (Nginx) config
options. This allows Passenger to log all file descriptor
open/close activity to a specific log file.
- The `PassengerDebugLogFile` (Apache) and
`passenger_debug_log_file` (Nginx) configuration options have
been renamed to `PassengerLogFile` and `passenger_log_file`,
respectively. The old name is support supported for backward
compatibility reasons.
- [Enterprise] Fixes a bug in Flying Passenger\'s
`--instance-registry-dir` command line parameter. This command
line parameter didn\'t do anything.
- [Enterprise] The Flying Passenger daemon no longer supports the
`--max-preloader-idle-time` config option. This is because the
config option never worked. The correct way to set the max
preloader idle time is through the Nginx config option, but
this was wrongly documented, so the documentation has been
fixed.
- adapted several patches
Tue Mar 17 13:00:00 2015 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- use new ruby-find-versioned script and make it build on 1.8
Tue Mar 17 13:00:00 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com

/run/passenger to root:root and 1777.
Tue Nov 25 13:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to 4.0.53
- Upgraded the preferred Nginx version to 1.6.2.
- Improved RVM gemset autodetection.
- Fixed some Ruby 2.2 compatibility issues.
- changes in 4.0.52
- Fixed a null termination bug when autodetecting application
types.
- Node.js apps can now also trigger the inverse port binding
mechanism by passing `\'/passenger\'` as argument. This was
introduced in order to be able to support the Hapi.js
framework. Please read
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20645231/phusion-passenger-error-http-server-listen-was-called-more-than-once/20645549
for more information regarding Hapi.js support.
- It is now possible to abort Node.js WebSocket connections upon
application restart. Please refer to
https://github.com/phusion/passenger/wiki/Phusion-Passenger:-Node.js-tutorial#restarting_apps_that_serve_long_running_connections
for more information. Closes GH-1200.
- Passenger Standalone no longer automatically resolves symlinks
in its paths.
- `passenger-config system-metrics` no longer crashes when the
system clock is set to a time in the past. Closes GH-1276.
- `passenger-status`, `passenger-memory-stats`,
`passenger-install-apache2-module` and
`passenger-install-nginx-module` no longer output ANSI color
codes by default when STDOUT is not a TTY. Closes GH-487.
- `passenger-install-nginx-module --auto` is now all that\'s
necessary to make it fully non-interactive. It is no longer
necessary to provide all the answers through command line
parameters. Closes GH-852.
- Minor contribution by Alessandro Lenzen.
Thu Nov 20 13:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- remove .o files
Thu Nov 20 13:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- it seems we need the buildout part for the agents
Thu Nov 20 13:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- fixed paths to some scripts:
- added passenger-4.0.50_paths.patch:
- patch paths to match our configs
- no longer copy the bin dir to the
%{_libdir}/passenger/%{version}
- copy the agents directory directly without the buildout part in
the target directory
Fri Sep 26 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- set is not sed
Wed Sep 24 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- no more agents sub package, dont require it anymore.
Wed Sep 24 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- use rake$rubysuffix instead of calling /usr/bin/rake with each
ruby. not all ruby versions might use the same rake version.
This fixes the 2.1 build on 13.1.
Tue Sep 23 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- buildrequire rake: while it ships with newer ruby releases on 1.8
we still need to require it explicitely
Fri Sep 19 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- big big package clean up round
- use normal patch application method instead of the old manual
stuff.
- use libeio from the system and not from the gem file
- as we still have the dir from the patching step in %prep
we dont need to move things around
- build native support for all ruby interpreters found in the
build env.
- drop mod_passenger.conf.systemd
we just set the proper tmpdir in the passenger config now via sed.
(for both apache and nginx)
- drop patches:

renamed from rubygem-passenger-4.0.14_missing_includes.patch
- passenger-4.0.50_fix_shebang.patch
- remove illegal shebang lines and a few shebang lines that
would cause undesired shebang based requires.
- passenger-4.0.50_load_system_passenger_libs.patch
dont try to load the passenger libs relatively but use the
normal searching via the gem directories.
Tue Sep 9 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to 4.0.50
Fri Jul 25 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- we also need the agents still in the gem dir -.-
Fri Jul 25 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- we also need resources and helper-scripts in the new passenger
root
- patch the helper-scripts after copying to load passenger files
via normal require and not using a full path.
Fri Jul 25 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- also install the bin stuff into the new passengerroot
Tue Jul 15 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- move buildrequires for ruby/ruby-devel to the macro version
Thu Jul 10 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- switched to gem2rpm.yml still untested but builds!
Thu Jun 26 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- synced with an automatically generated spec file
- most notable change from this is that we no longe require other
gems during building
Mon Jun 23 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- move to new packaging style
Mon Jun 16 14:00:00 2014 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 4.0.45
* Major improvements in Node.js and Meteor compatibility. Older Phusion Passenger
versions implemented Node.js support by emulating Node.js\' HTTP library.
This approach was found to be unsustainable, so we\'ve abandoned that approach
and replaced it with a much simpler approach that does not involve emulating
the HTTP library.
* Introduced support for sticky sessions. Sticky sessions are useful -- or even
required -- for apps that store state inside process memory. Prominent examples
include SockJS, Socket.io, faye-websocket and Meteor. Sticky sessions are
required to make the aforementioned examples work in multi-process scenarios.
By introducing sticky sessions support, we\'ve much improved WebSocket support
and support for the aforementioned libraries and frameworks.
* Due to user demand, GET requests with request bodies are once again supported.
Support for these kinds of requests was removed in 4.0.42 in an attempt to
increase the strictness and robustness of our request handling code. It has
been determined that GET requests with request bodies can be adequately
supported without degrading robustness in Phusion Passenger. However, GET
requests with both request bodies and WebSocket upgrade headers are
unsupported. Fixes issue #1092.
* [Enterprise] The [Flying Passenger](http://www.modrails.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Apache.html#flying_passenger)
feature is now also available on Apache.
* Fixed some issues with RVM mixed mode support, issue #1121.
* Fixed Passenger Standalone complaining about not finding PassengerHelperAgent
during startup.
* Fixed various minor issues such as #1190 and #1197.
* The download timeout for passenger-install-nginx-module has been increased.
Patch by 亀田 義裕.
- additional changes in 4.0.44
* The issue tracker has now been moved from Google Code to Github.
Before version 4.0.44 (May 29 2014, commit 3dd0964c9f4), all
issue numbers referred to Google Code. From now on, all issue
numbers will refer to Github Issues.
* Fixed compilation problems on OS X Lion and OS X Mountain Lion.
* On Ruby, fixed `nil` being frozen on accident in some cases.
See issue #1192.
- additional changes in 4.0.44
* Introduced a new command `passenger-config list-instances`, which prints all
running Phusion Passenger instances.
* Introduced a new command `passenger-config system-metrics, which displays
metrics about the system such as the total CPU and memory usage.
* Fixed some compilation problems caused by the compiler capability autodetector.
* System metrics such as total CPU usage and memory usage, are now sent to
[Union Station](https://www.unionstationapp.com) in preparation for future
features.
Sun May 18 14:00:00 2014 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.42
* [Nginx] Upgraded the preferred Nginx version to 1.6.0.
* [Nginx] Fixed compatibility with Nginx 1.7.0.
* [Standalone] The MIME type for .woff files has been changed to application/font-woff.
Fixes issue #1071.
* There are now APT packages for Ubuntu 14.04. At the same time, packages for
Ubuntu 13.10 have been abandoned.
* Introduced a new command, `passenger-config build-native-support`, for ensuring
that the native_support library for the current Ruby interpreter is built. This
is useful in system provisioning scripts.
* For security reasons, friendly error pages (those black/purple pages that shows
the error message, backtrace and environment variable dump when an application
fails to start) are now disabled by default when the application environment is
set to \'staging\' or \'production\'. Fixes issue #1063.
* Fixed some compilation warnings on Ubuntu 14.04.
* Fixed some compatibility problems with Rake 10.2.0 and later.
See [Rake issue 274](https://github.com/jimweirich/rake/issues/274).
* Improved error handling in [Union Station](https://www.unionstationapp.com) support.
* Data is now sent to Union Station on a more frequent basis, in order to make new
data show up more quickly.
* Information about the code revision is now sent to Union Station, which will be
used in the upcoming deployment tracking feature in Union Station 2.
Release 4.0.41
- -------------
* Fixed some issues with printing UTF-8 log files on Heroku.
* Added a new flag `--ignore-app-not-running` to `passenger-config restart-app`.
When this flag is given, `passenger-config restart-app` will exit successfully
when the specified application is not running, instead of exiting with
an error.
* Our precompiled Passenger Standalone binaries have been upgraded to use
OpenSSL 1.0.1g, which fixes [the OpenSSL Heartbleed vulnerability](http://heartbleed.com/).
Users who are using Passenger Standalone with SSL enabled are vulnerable,
and should upgrade immediately. Users who do not use Passenger Standalone,
users who use Passenger Standalone without SSL, or users who use Passenger
Standalone with SSL behind another SSL-enabled reverse proxy, are not
vulnerable.
Tue Apr 8 14:00:00 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de
- fix passenger usage together with systemd (bnc#858460)
* move passenger files to /run/passenger/passenger
*
Fri Mar 21 13:00:00 2014 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.40
* Upgraded preferred Nginx version to 1.4.7. This Nginx version fixes
a buffer overflow. Users are strongly urged to upgrade Nginx as soon
as possible.
Release 4.0.39
- -------------
* Fixed a crash that could happen if the client disconnects while a chunked
response is being sent. Fixes issue #1062.
* In Phusion Passenger Standalone, it is now possible to customize the Nginx
configuration file on Heroku. It is now also possible to permanently apply
changes to the Nginx configuration file, surviving upgrades. Please refer
to the \"Advanced configuration\" section of the Phusion Passenger Standalone
manual for more information.
* The programming language selection menu in passenger-install-apache2-module
and passenger-install-nginx-module only works on terminals that support
UTF-8 and that have a UTF-8 capable font. To cater to users who cannot meet
these requirements (e.g. PuTTY users using any of the default Windows fonts),
it is now possible to switch the menu to a plain text mode by pressing \'!\'.
Fixes issue #1066.
* Fixed printing UTF-8 characters in log files in Phusion Passenger Standalone.
* It is now possible to dump live backtraces of Python apps through the
\'SIGABRT\' signal.
* Fixed closing of file descriptors on OS X 10.9.
* Fixed compilation problems with Apple Clang 503.0.38 on OS X.
* Fixed compilation of native_support on Rubinius.
Fri Feb 28 13:00:00 2014 schubiAATTsuse.com
- Release 4.0.38
- -------------
* Added support for the new Ruby 2.1.0 out-of-band garbage collector.
This can much improve garbage collection performance, and drastically
reduce request times.
* Fixed a symlink-related security vulnerability.
Urgency: low
Scope: local exploit
Summary: writing files to arbitrary directory by hijacking temp directories
Affected versions: 4.0.37
Fixed versions: 4.0.38
CVE-2014-1832
Description:
This issue is related to CVE-2014-1831 (the security issue as mentioned in
the 4.0.37 release notes). The previous fix was incomplete, and still has a
(albeit smaller) small attack time window in between two filesystem
checks. This attack window is now gone.
* Fixed some compilation problems on Solaris. See issue #1047.
* passenger-install-apache2-module and passenger-install-nginx-module
now automatically run in `--auto` mode if stdin is not a TTY. Fixes
issue #1030.
* Fixed an issue with non-bundled Meteor apps not correctly running in
production mode.
Sat Feb 22 13:00:00 2014 cooloAATTsuse.com

- Update config.guess and config.sub of the gem automatically.
Mon Dec 9 13:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.27
* [Apache] Fixed a bug in the Apache module which could lock up the Apache
process or thread. This is a regression introduced in version 4.0.24.
* Node.js application processes now have friendly process titles.
Fri Nov 29 13:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.26
* Introduced the `PassengerBufferUpload` option for Apache. This option allows one
to disable upload buffering, e.g. in order to be able to track upload progress.
* [Nginx] The `HTTPS` variable is now set correctly for HTTPS connections, even
without setting `ssl on`. Fixes issue #401.
* [Standalone] It is now possible to listen on both a normal HTTP and an HTTPS port.
* [Enterprise] The `passenger-status` tool now displays rolling restart status.
Fri Nov 22 13:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.25
* The `PassengerEnv`/`passenger_env`/`--environment` option now also sets NODE_ENV,
so that Node.js frameworks like Connect can properly respond to the environment.
* Fixed a bug in our Debian/Ubuntu packages causing `passenger-install-nginx-module`
not to be able to compile Nginx.
* Arbitrary Node.js application structures are now supported.
* [Nginx] Introduced the `passenger_restart_dir` option.
* [Nginx] Upgraded preferred Nginx version to 1.4.4 because of CVE-2013-4547.
Release 4.0.24
- -------------
* Introduced the `PassengerNodejs` (Apache) and `passenger_nodejs` (Nginx)
configuration options.
* [Apache] Introduced the `PassengerErrorOverride` option, so that HTTP error
responses generated by applications can be intercepted by Apache and customized
using the `ErrorDocument` directive.
* [Standalone] It is now possible to specify some configuration options in
a configuration file `passenger-standalone.json`. When Passenger Standalone
is used in Mass Deployment mode, this configuration file can be used to customize
settings on a per-application basis.
* [Enterprise] Fixed a potential crash when a rolling restart is triggered
while a process is already shutting down.
* [Enterprise] Fixed Mass Deployment support for Node.js and Meteor.
Wed Nov 6 13:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.23

* [Standalone] The –temp-dir command line option has been introduced.
Thu Oct 10 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.20
* Fixed a bug in Phusion Passenger Standalone\'s daemon mode. When in daemon
mode, the Nginx temporary directory was deleted prematurely, causing some
POST requests to fail. This was a regression that was introduced in 4.0.15
as part of an optimization.
* Fixed compilation problems on Solaris 10 with Sun Studio 12.3.
* Improved detection of RVM problems.
* It is now possible to log the request method to Union Station.
* Introduced a new option, `PassengerLoadShellEnvvars` (Apache) and
`passenger_load_shell_envvars` (Nginx). This allows enabling or disabling
the loading of bashrc before spawning the application.
* [Enterprise] Fixed a packaging problem which caused the flying-passenger
executable not to be properly included in the bin path.
* [Enterprise] Fixed a race condition which sometimes causes the Flying
Passenger socket to be deleted after a restart. Fixes issue #939.
* [Enterprise] The `byebug` gem is now supported for debugging on Ruby 2.0.
The byebug gem requires a patch before this works:
https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/byebug/pull/29
Fri Oct 4 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to version 4.0.19
* Fixed a problem with response buffering. Application processes are now
properly marked available for request processing immediately after they\'re
done sending the response, instead of after having sent the entire response
to the client.
* The \"processed\" counter in `passenger-status` is now bumped after the process
has handled a request, not at the beginning.
* [Enterprise] Fixed an off-by-one bug in the `passenger_max_processes` setting.

- fix permissions to fix nginx build
Wed Sep 25 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- update to version 4.0.18
* The Enterprise variant of Phusion Passenger Standalone now supports
customizing the concurrency model and thread count from the command line.
* On Nginx, the Enterprise license is now only checked if Phusion Passenger
is enabled in Nginx. This allows you to deploy Nginx binaries, that have
Phusion Passenger Enterprise compiled in, to servers that are not
actually running Phusion Passenger Enterprise.
* Fixed a performance bug in the Union Station support code. In certain cases
where a lot of data must be sent to Union Station, the code is now over
100 times faster.
* `passenger-status --show=union_station` now displays all clients that
are connected to the LoggingAgent.
* Added a workaround for Heroku so that exited processes are properly detected
as such.
* When using Phusion Passenger Standalone with Foreman, pressing Ctrl-C
in Foreman no longer results in runaway Nginx processes.
* Fixed backtraces in the Apache module.

* [Apache] Fixed a long-standing mod_rewrite-related problem.
Some mod_rewrite rules would not work, but it depends on the exact
mod_rewrite configuration so it would work for some people but not
for others. Issue #563. Thanks a lot to cedricmaion for providing
information on the nature of the bug and to peter.nash55 for

* [Nginx] Preferred Nginx version upgraded to 1.0.15.
* [Nginx] Preferred PCRE version upgraded to 8.30.
* [Nginx] Fixed compatibility with Nginx < 1.0.10.
* [Nginx] Nginx is now installed with http_gzip_static_module by default.
* [Nginx] Fixed a memory disclosure security problem.
The issue is documented at http://www.nginx.org/en/security_advisories.html
and affects more modules than just Phusion Passenger. Users are advised
to upgrade as soon as possible. Patch submitted by Gregory Potamianos.
* [Nginx] passenger_show_version_in_header now hides the Phusion Passenger version number from the \'Server:\' header too.
Patch submitted by Gregory Potamianos.
* Fixed a /proc deprecation warning on Linux kernel >= 3.0.
* Fixed a compilation problem on platforms without alloca.h, such as FreeBSD 7.
* Improved performance and solved some warnings on Xen systems by compiling

* [Nginx, Standalone] Upgraded default Nginx version to 1.0.10
The previously default version was 1.0.5.
* [Nginx] New option passenger_max_requests
This is equivalent to the PassengerMaxRequests option in the Apache
version: Phusion Passenger will automatically shutdown a worker process
once it has processed the specified number of requests.
Contributed by Paul Kmiec.
* [Apache] New option PassengerBufferResponse
The Apache version did not buffer responses. This could block the Ruby
worker process in case of slow clients. We now enable response buffering
by default. It can be turned off through this option. Feature contributed
by Ryo Onodera.
* Fixed remaining Ruby 1.9.3 compatibility problems
We already supported Ruby 1.9.3 since 3.0.8, but due to bugs in Ruby
1.9.3\'s build system Phusion Passenger would fail to detect Ruby 1.9.3
features on some systems. Fixes issue #714.
* Fixed a bug in PassengerPreStart
A regression was introduced in 3.0.8, causing the prespawn script to
connect to the host name instead of to 127.0.0.1. Fix contributed by
Andy Allan.
* Fixed compatibility with GCC 4.6
Affected systems include Ubuntu 11.10.
* Fixed various compilation problems.
* Fixed some Ruby 1.9 encoding problems.

Mon Aug 22 14:00:00 2011 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 3.0.8
* [Nginx] Upgraded preferred Nginx version to 1.0.5.
* [Nginx] Fixed various compilation problems on various platforms.
* [Nginx] We now ensure that SERVER_NAME is equal to HTTP_HOST
without the port part. This is needed for Rack compliance. By
default Nginx sets SERVER_NAME to whatever is specified in the
server_name directive, but that\'s not necessarily the correct
value. This fixes, for example, the use of the \'map\' statement
in config.ru.
* [Nginx] Added the options passenger_buffer_size,
passenger_buffers and passenger_busy_buffers_size. These
options are similar to proxy_module\'s similarly named options.
You can use these to e.g. increase the maximum header size
limit.
* [Nginx] passenger_pre_start now supports virtual hosts that
listen on Unix domain sockets.
* [Apache] Fixed the pcre.h compilation problem.
* [Standalone] Fixed \'passenger stop\'.
It didn\'t work properly because it kept waiting for \'tail\' to
exit. We now properly terminate \'tail\' as well.
* Fixed compatibility with Rake 0.9.
* Fixed various Ruby 1.9 compatibility issues.
* Various documentation improvements.
* New Union Station filter language features.
It now supports status codes and response times. Please refer

* Upgraded preferred Nginx version to 1.0.0.
* Phusion Passenger Standalone now pre-starts application processes
at startup instead of doing that at the first request.
* When sending data to Union Station, the HTTP status code is now
also logged.
* Various Union Station-related stability improvements.
* The Linux OOM killer was previously erroneously disabled for all
Phusion Passenger processes, including application processes. The
intention was to only disable it for the Watchdog. This has been
fixed, and the Watchdog is now the only process for which the OOM
killer is disabled.
* Due to a typo, the dependency on file-tail was not entirely
removed in 3.0.6. This has now been fixed.

- update to version 3.0.6
* Fixed various Union Station-related stability issues.
* Fixed an issue with host name detection on certain platforms.
* Improved error logging in various parts.
* The dependency on the file-tail library has been removed.
* During installation, check whether /tmp is mounted with \'noexec\'.
Phusion Passenger\'s installer relies on /tmp
*not
* being mounted
with \'noexec\'. If it is then the installer will now show a
helpful error message instead of bailing out in a confusing
manner. Users can now tell the installer to use a different
directory for storing temporary files by customizing the $TMPDIR
environment variable.
* Phusion Passenger Standalone can now run Rackup files that are
not named \'config.ru\'. The filename can be passed through the
command line using the -R option.
- additional changes from 3.0.5
* [Apache] Fixed Union Station process statistics collection
Union Station users that are using Apache may notice that no
process information show up in Union Station. This is because of
a bug in Phusion Passenger\'s Apache version, which has now been
fixed.
* [Apache] PassengerAnalytics has been renamed to
UnionStationSupport This option has been renamed for consistency
reasons.
* [Nginx] passenger_analytics has been renamed to
union_station_support This option has been renamed for
consistency reasons.
* Fixed Union Station data sending on older libcurl versions
Some Union Station users have reported that their data don\'t
show up. Upon investigation this turned out to be a
compatibility with older libcurl versions. Affected systems
include all RHEL 5 based systems, such as RHEL 5.5 and CentOS
5.5. We\'ve now fixed compatibility with older libcurl versions.
* Added support for the Union Station filter language
This language can be used to limit the kind of data that\'s sent
to Union Station. Please read
https://engage.unionstationapp.com/help#filtering for details.
* Fixed a PassengerMaxPoolSize/passenger_max_pool_size violation
bug People who host a lot of different applications on Phusion
Passenger may notice that it sometimes spawns more processes
than is allowed by PassengerMaxPoolSize/passenger_max_pool_size.
This has been fixed.
- additional changes from 3.0.4
* [Apache] Changed mod_dir workaround hook priority
Phusion Passenger temporarily disables mod_dir on all Phusion
Passenger-handled requests in order to avoid conflicts. In order
to do this it registers some Apache hooks with the
APR_HOOK_MIDDLE priority, but it turned out that this breaks
some other modules like mod_python. The hook priority has been
changed to APR_HOOK_LAST to match mod_dir\'s hook priorities.
Issue reported by Jay Freeman.
* Added support for Union Station: http://www.unionstationapp.com/
* Some error messages have been improved.
Fri Feb 25 13:00:00 2011 mrueckertAATTsuse.de
- update to version 3.0.3
* [Nginx] Preferred Nginx version upgraded to 0.8.54
The previous preferred version was 0.8.53.
* PATH_INFO and REQUEST_URI now contain the original escaped URI
Phusion Passenger passes the URI, as reported by Apache/Nginx,
to application processes through the PATH_INFO and REQUEST_URI
variables. These variables are supposed to contain the
original, unescaped URI, e.g. /clubs/%C3%BC. Both Apache and
Nginx thought that it would be a good idea to unescape the URI
before passing it to modules like Phusion Passenger, thereby
causing PATH_INFO and REQUEST_URI to contain the unescaped URI,
e.g. /clubs/ü. This causes all sorts of encoding problems. We
now manually re-escape the URI when setting PATH_INFO and
REQUEST_URI. Issue #404.
* The installer no longer detects directories as potential
commands Previously the installer would look in $PATH for
everything that\'s executable, including directories. If one has
/usr/lib in $PATH and a directory /usr/lib/gcc exists then the
installer would recognize /usr/lib/gcc as the compiler. We now
explicitly check whether the item is also a file.
* PseudoIO now responds to #to_io
Phusion Passenger sets STDERR to a PseudoIO object in order to
capture anything written to STDERR during application startup.
This breaks some libraries which expect STDERR to respond to
[#]to_io. This has now been fixed. Issue #607.
* Fixed various other minor bugs
See the git commit log for details.

- update to version 3.0.1
* Fixed malfunction after web server restart
On Linux systems that have a non-standard filesystem on /tmp, Phusion
Passenger could malfunction after restarting the web server because of
a bug that\'s only triggered on certain filesystems. Issue #569.
* Boost upgraded to version 1.44.0.
We were on 1.42.0.
* Much improved startup error messages
Phusion Passenger performs many extensive checks during startup to ensure
integrity. However the error message in some situation could be vague.
These startup error messages have now been improved dramatically, so that
if something goes wrong during startup you will now more likely know why.
* Curl < 7.12.1 is now supported
The previous version fails to compile with Curl versions earlier than
7.12.1. Issue #556.
* passenger-make-enterprisey fixed
This is the command that people can run after donating. It allows people
to slightly modify Phusion Passenger\'s display name as a joke. In 3.0.0 it
was broken because of a typo. This has been fixed.
* Removed passenger-stress-test
This tool was used during the early life of Phusion Passenger for stress
testing websites. Its performance has never been very good and there are
much better tools for stress testing, so this tool has now been removed.
* [Apache] RailsEnv and RackEnv configuration options are now equivalent
In previous versions, RailsEnv only had effect on Rails 1 and Rails 2 apps
while RackEnv only had effect on Rack apps. Because Rails 3 apps are
considered Rack apps, setting RailsEnv had no effect on Rails 3 apps.
Because this is confusing to users, we\'ve now made RailsEnv and RackEnv
equivalent. Issue #579.
* [Nginx] Fixed compilation problems on systems with unpowerful shells
Most notably Solaris. Its default shell does not support some basic
constructs that we used in the Nginx configure script.
* [Nginx] Upgraded default Nginx version to to 0.8.53
The previous default was 0.8.52.
* [Nginx] passenger_enabled now only accepts \'on\' or \'off\' values
Previously it would recognize any value not equal to \'on\' as meaning
\'off\'. This caused confusion among users who thought they could also
specify \'true\', so we now throw a proper error if the value is
unrecognized. Fixes issue #583.

*
*
* Cleaning stale folder
/tmp/passenger.1234\" ...after which Phusion Passenger breaks
because that directory is necessary for it to function
properly. The cause of this problem has been found and has been
fixed.
- [Apache] Fixed some upload handling problems Previous versions
of Phusion Passenger check whether the size of the received
upload data matches the contents of the Content-Length header
as received by the client. It turns out that there could be a
mismatch e.g. because of mod_deflate input compression, so we
can\'t trust Content-Length anyway and we\'re being too strict.
The check has now been removed.
- [Nginx] Fixed compilation issues with Nginx >= 0.7.66 Thanks to
Potamianos Gregory for reporting this issue. Issue #500.
- [Nginx] Default Nginx version changed to 0.7.67 The previous
default version was 0.7.65.
- Fixed more Bundler problems Previous versions of Phusion
Passenger would preload some popular libraries such as mysql
and sqlite3 in order to utilize copy-on-write optimizations
better. However this behavior conflicts with Bundler so we\'ve
removed it.

- update to version 2.2.14
* Added support for Rubinius
Patch contributed by Evan Phoenix.
* Fixed a mistake in the SIGQUIT backtrace message.
Patch contributed by Christoffer Sawicki.
* [Nginx] Fix a localtime() crash on FreeBSD
This was caused by insufficient stack space for threads.
Issue #499.
- additional changes from version 2.2.13
* Fixed some Rails 3 compatibility issues that were recently
introduced.
* Fixed a typo that causes config/setup_load_paths.rb not to be
loaded correctly.
- additional changes from version 2.2.12
* Improved Bundler support.
Previous versions might not be able to correctly load gems
bundled by Bundler. We\'ve also documented how our Bundler
support works and how to override our support if you need
special behavior. Please refer to the Phusion Passenger Users
Guide, section \"Bundler support\".
* Worked around some user account handling bugs in Ruby.
Issue #192.
* Fixed some Ruby 1.9 tempfile.rb compatibility problems.
* Fixed some compilation problems on some ARM Linux platforms.
* [Apache] Suppress bogus mod_xsendfile-related error messages.
When mod_xsendfile is being used, Phusion Passenger might print
bogus error messages like \"EPIPE\" or \"Apache stopped forwarding
the backend\'s response\" to the log file. These messages are
normal, are harmless and can be safely ignored, but they
pollute the log file. So in this release we\'ve added code to
suppress these messages when mod_xsendfile is being used.
Issue #474.
* [Nginx] Fixed \"passenger_user_switching off\" permission
problems If Nginx is running as root and
passenger_user_switching is turned off, then Phusion Passenger
would fail to initialize because of a permission problem. This
has been fixed. Issue #458.
* [Nginx] Nginx >= 0.8.38 is now supported.
Thanks to Sergey A. Osokin for reporting the problem.
* [Nginx] passenger-install-nginx-module upgraded
It now defaults to installing Nginx 0.7.65 instead of 0.7.64.

- update to version 2.2.11
* This release fixes a regression that appeared in 2.2.10 which only
affects Apache. When under high load, Apache might freeze and stop
responding to requests. It is caused by a race conditions which is
why it escaped our last release testing.

- update to version 2.2.10
* Fixed some Bundler compatibility problems.
* Fixed some file descriptor passing problems, which previously
could lead to mysterious crashes.
* Fixed some compilation problems on newer GCC versions. Issue #430.

- update to version 2.2.7
* Removed forgotten debugging code in passenger-install-apache2-module,
which caused it not to compile anything.
- additional changes from 2.2.6
* Some /tmp cleaner programs such as tmpwatch try to remove
subdirectories in /tmp/passenger.xxx after a while because they
think those subdirectories are unused. This could cause Phusion
Passenger to malfunction, requiring a web server restart.
Measures have now been taken to prevent those tmp cleaner
programs from removing anything in /tmp/passenger.xxx. Issue #365.
* When autodetecting the application type, Rack is now given more
priority than Rails. This allows one to drop a config.ru file in
a Rails directory and have it detected as a Rack application
instead of a Rails application. Patch contributed by Sam
Pohlenz: issue #338.
* The default socket backlog has been increased from \'SOMAXCONN\'
(which is 128 on most platforms) to 1024. This should fix most
\'helper_server.sock failed: Resource temporarily unavailable\'
errors.
* Fixed compilation problems on Solaris. Issue #369 and issue #379.
* Fixed crashes on PowerPC.
* Some Ruby 1.9 compatibility fixes. Issue #398.
* The installer now displays correct dependency installation
instructions for Mandriva Linux.
* [Apache] The location of the \'apxs\' and \'apr-config\' commands
can now also be passed to the installer through the --apxs-path
and --apr-config-path parameters, in addition to the $APXS2 and
$APR_CONFIG environment variables. Issue #3.
* [Nginx] Various problems that only occur on 64-bit platforms
have been fixed.
* [Nginx] The installer now installs Nginx 0.7.64 by default.

also many small usability improvements here and there.
- Various other minor improvements and bug fixes
- PassengerPoolIdleTime can now be set to 0, which means that
the backend application must never idle timeout. This feature
has been contributed by redmar.
- The passenger-status tool will now display Phusion
Passenger’s own backtraces for C++ code, in order to make it
possible to detect potential freezes in C++ code.
- Phusion Passenger error pages now return HTTP 500 errors, as
they should.
- The ApplicationSpawner server and FrameworkSpawner server
idle times can now be customized.
- In the 2.0.x series, sometimes more backend processes might
be spawned than is allowed by the ‘PassengerMaxPoolSize’
option. This has been fixed.
