Welcome to my world
Grab the “newest” (2008) http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.1.4.tar.gz
unpack it. Compiling with VC++ is very easy.
Open the x64 %comspec% /E:ON /V:ON /T:0E /K “C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin\SetEnv.cmd” /Release
or x86 command line
%comspec% /k “”C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat”” x86
browse to lua folder and run
etc\luavs copy /y src\*.* .\
Done!

The patch.exe requires admin privileges on Windows 7. This is pretty annoying! The first thing that worked was just renaming the file to pach.exe Stupid windows. But I didn’t like that cause than I mostly typed it wrong and patch command was missing. I found a better solution:
Create a text file in the same directory with the name patch.exe.manifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2"> <security> <requestedPrivileges> <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker"/> </requestedPrivileges> </security> </trustInfo> </assembly>
Save as UTF8. Now it works. Well I have to test if it is possible to embedd the manifest than good bye $%&# asking for admin permission
This is my first trial giving a third party module a signature.

};In my last post about utorrent (µtorrent) I was frustrated that I wasn’t able to change the url from /gui/ to /tor/
Woot! In apache 2.3 which will be apache 2.4 and I think it will be released in early 2011 the proxy module is much better and there it works to have a different URL :-) Even as ALPHA or BETA version the new apache rocks a lot and runs stable. In condition with mod_fcgid it is real cool technology e.g. running PHP separated form apache that allows to run different PHP version of the server in vhosts or directories. Also running a non thread safe PHP version. Speed! IPv6 would be fine, but the offered patches are not applied to trunk :-/There is an annoying bug in mod_fcgid. I’m glad I found a fix for it (help from Tom Donovan and Sob).
AllowOverride is one of the things that slow down a lot. Disabling it makes apache faster. It is a horror to migrate all .htaccess files by hand. BUT here is a PHP script from Paul Reinheimer which makes it realy easy :-)
Get it htaccess.php
tune your server!
There’s a nice picture about webdevs vs pixeldroppers xD
On Windows fcgid crashes apache when apache do a graceful restart (httpd -k restart). Here is a patch that should fix that. This patch in inspired from Tom Dovovan.

Well I didn’t manage it to compile mod_svn without the apache compiled source tree, but than it works fine and fast. Also Python 3 did not work. So I took 2.7
Assuming that OpenSSL 1.0.0a and zlib are compiled in that source tree as well.
C:\python27\python gen-make.py -t vcproj --vsnet-version=2008 --with-httpd=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6 --with-openssl=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6\srclib\openssl --with-zlib=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6\srclib\zlib --with-apr=C:\build\httpd-2.2.x-sni-dev-ipv6\srclib\apr
Than just open subversion_vcnet.sln with Visual C++ Express Edition. Ignore all warnings about solution folders. Choose the __ALL__ project. Than change from debug to release. Start!
