Cheyenne v0.9.17 released

• Cheyenne can now run natively as NT-Service. Use the systray menu to switch between service and user mode. (switching to service mode requires admin rights)
• Several new command-line options have been added :
  
  
  • -u : (Windows only) uninstall Cheyenne service (alternative to systray menu)
  • -f %path/ : specify a working folder for Cheyenne's runtime files.
  
  
  Internal use (Windows only) :
  • -s : run as NT-service
  • -fromdesk : executable was started from a user desktop
• cheyenne.r boot script refactored for cleaner and more modular approach.
• CGI handler was redefining 'read-io in a unfriendly permanent way. Now you should use 'cgi-read-io if you want to read the system/ports/input from CGI scripts.
• Fixed an issue with FastCGI apps, now local file paths are absolute instead of relative.
• Major change in modules event functions prototype, now all module events are called with only one argument : 'req (the request objet). The HTTPd context is also now reachable from module's context using 'service word. For example :

      service/conf => loaded configuration file
  	  

• RSP session timeouts can now be set per webapp or per session, from config file in webapps using the 'timeout keyword or from RSP code using the session/timeout property. The 'timeout keyword need a time! value. Example :

      timeout 00:30	; session timeout set to 30 minutes
  	  

• BugFix in REBOL CGI scripts header handler introduced in previous betas.
• If a 'Content-Length header is not sent by the client in a POST or PUT request, now Cheyenne returns a "400 Bad Request" response.
• A new config file keyword 'post-mem-limit allows to define the threshold for disk-based temporary storage of POST/PUT data instead of buffering in memory (raw data of arbitrary size can now be sent with POST/PUT).
• New 'listen keyword in configuration file in 'globals section allows to define the HTTPd listen ports. If the -p command line option is used, it overrides the ports defined by 'listen.
• A new header 'Internal-Referer has been added to save the previous requested URL when a request is internally forwarded.
• New config keyword in 'globals: 'set-mime allows to add new mime types. If the mime type is already defined, it will be replaced by the new definition. Syntax :

      set-mime type/sub-type .extension 
          or 
      set-mime type/sub-type [.ext1 .ext2 ...]
  	  

• Fixed PHP support for non-Windows platforms. Added a new 'delay option in 'extapp definition block to allow slower processes finish booting before trying to obtain a connection.(This may happen on slower machines). PHP support tested successfully on Windows, Linux and OSX using PHP 5.2.5.
• Minor additions to FastCGI protocol handler.
• 'mod-userdir refactored :
  • cleaner and shorter code.
  • 'user and 'group keywords accept a name or integer ID.
  • task-master's slave processes are now SETUID too.
• Cheyenne doesn't check anymore for a valid system/license, but now just for the /Library component.
• Bug fixed (from online bugtracker) :

  #0010034 : Configuration: PHP execution stops working after a configuration reload  
  #0010032 : CGI: posting large amount of data fails  
  #0010026 : HTTP: protocol domain.com/?a=1 get redirected to domain.com/?a=1/
