Apache HTTP Server Version 1.3

Overview of new features

API Changes

Some non-compatible changes were made to the Apache API in order to deal with HTTP/1.1 compatibility. It is possible that some modules will no longer work (specifically, those that process input using the POST or PUT methods). If you encounter a module that does not work, please contact the author. A programmer's note on the subject is available.

Additionally, some changes were made to the CGI environment that may cause some CGI scripts to work incorrectly. If you are experiencing trouble with a CGI that worked fine under Apache 1.1.1, please see our explanation of the changes.
