(CA-OPENOSX-COM) OpenOSX Updates OpenWeb 2.5 CD

Business Editors/High-Tech Writers

CROWLEY LAKE, Calif.--(OPENOSX-COM)--Jan. 29th, 2003-- OpenOSX today updated their OpenWeb CD from version 2.5 to 2.5.1 and published a free 2.5.1 update for their OpenWeb 2.5 customers. The minor new version delivers updated software including PHP 4.3.0, additional enhancements and will eliminate several potential issues discovered with the previous version.

The OpenWeb product is designed to empower webmasters with a wide range of ready to use tools as fast, conveniently and easily as possible. The OpenWeb customizable package, will install and fully configure a suite of popular server software and web-applications including: a secure shopping cart, a content management and publishing system, web-based graphical server administration tools (supporting DNS, SSL, Apache, MySQL, Samba and more), SQL database backends, a search engine, bulletin board system, advertising management and more.

The OpenWeb product is based on Apache versions 1.3.27 and 2.0.43 with PHP 4.3.0 (built as Apache 1 and 2 modules), Jakarta Tomcat 4.1.12 along with mod_jk 1.2.1 (also built as Apache 1 and 2 modules), Perl 5.8.0 with mod_perl versions 1.27 and 1.99_07, MySQL 3.23.53 with MyODBC 2.50.39, OpenSSL 0.9.6g with mod_ssl 2.8.12.

Apache 2 offers many new features over previous versions including performance enhancements and increased scalability. Tomcat along with mod_jk allows the serving of Java Serer Pages and Servelets directly from the web server without the need to use a port number. Perl with mod_perl module enables a persistent Perl interpreter embedded in your web server. This avoids the overhead of starting an external interpreter and alleviates the penalty of Perl start-up time, benefiting fast dynamic content.

The OpenWeb package is available immediately for us$60, also complementary, specially priced, O'Reilly book bundles and 6-month, hassle-free CD-subscriptions are available. Limited installation support and documentation is included. Visit the OpenOSX web site for more details (http://OpenOSX.com/openweb/ ). The OpenWeb 2.5 to 2.5.1 free update is available for immediate download at the OpenOSX support page (http://OpenOSX.com/support/ ).
