Bug 20242

Summary: LDAP caching does not work without c:\tmp

Description prefab 2003-05-26 15:17:51 UTC 
The caching functionality in mod_ldap does not work in windows systems that do
not have c:\tmp.

This is because the constant MODLDAP_SHMEM_CACHE is hardcoded to point to
/tmp/mod_ldap_cache.

How to reproduce the problem:

configure apache to log errors with debug level. make sure that c:\tmp does not
exist. configure ldap cache in conf. start apache. you should get the following
message in error log:

[Mon May 26 12:16:44 2003] [debug] util_ldap.c(1104): (OS 3)The system cannot
find the path specified.  : [108] ldap cache init: The system cannot find the
path specified.  

stop apache. create c:\tmp. start apache. the file mod_ldap_cache is created in
c:\tmp. you can monitor ldap cache with SetHandler ldap-status.

I'd like to suggest that we create this under the logs directory -- like MM 
usages do, etc.
