Is there a specific update for the Apache buffer overflow for SuSE eMail Server II?
I attempted to update is as though it were a SuSE7.0 server (And then later tried the 7.1 updates) and received Segmentation faults from the httpd children each time i tried to access.
Originally installed (before update) was: Apache 1.3.12-128 mod_ssl-2.6.6-128
Anyone else updated their SuSE II mail server? Clues? thanks
Phew, finally someone who made the same fault as me, it seems. I'm on the standard 7.0 distribution and had also this problem. I even tried to compile from the source rpm, same result. Finally I figured that other (older) installed apache modules were creating a mess. Seems like some time in the past (April 2001) SuSE issued an update from apache 1.3.12 to apache 1.3.19 together with the new modules, which wasn't relevant for me. Irritatingly, I didn't find that older apache update on the relevant page on www.suse.com, only the modules. If you still have the old modules running (mod_contrib, mod_perl etc.), this is the cause for what you see - btw. why aren't there any rpm dependencies which would prevent such problems? Go to http://www.suse.com/us/support/download/updates/70_i386.html and scroll down to April, 28th, 2001. Install these modules together with the new apache, and it will do it. HTH, oliver
