#7277: Protect .ht* files case insensitively by default (apache2 port) ---------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: opendarwin-2006(a)ryandesign.com | Owner: imajes(a)macports.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ---------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Comment (by ryandesign(a)macports.org) This patch fixes the issue like kbase article 300422 says we should and therefore also increases the port revision. Also changing the fix for #7273 (r17933) from reinplaces to a patchfile. This is better because we get no notification if a reinplace ever fails, but we do if a patchfile fails. Also making the changing of the user and group under which the server runs a patchfile again instead of a reinplace (undoing this change from r33568). It really has no business being a reinplace. This is a job for a patchfile. Also, this seems to be Mac OS X-specific, so it's going into the `platform darwin` section. To apply this patch please do this: {{{ cd `port dir apache2` svn mkdir files svn cp -r 33567 http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports/www/apache2/files /patch-httpd-std.conf.in files/patch-httpd.conf.in.diff patch -p0 < ~/Desktop/apache2.diff svn add files/patch-httpd-userdir.conf.in.diff }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/7277#comment:5> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
