1. Release Notes

The SCOx packages on SCO Operating Systems are divided into several parts:

1. Support Components for Web Services (Set)
2. Web Services Toolkits (Set)
3. Apache 2.0 Web Server (Package)
4. Perl 5.8.0 (Package)
5. SOAP and XML for Perl (Package)
6. Additional Modules for Perl (Package)
7. mod_perl for Apache (Package)

The Support Components include web servers like Apache and tomcat, C/C++ compilers, the PHP interpreter, the Java Runtime Environment, Database Servers like MySQL/Postgres, XML parsers like expat and libxml2, basic SSL Toolkits, and various other utilities.

The Web Services Toolkits provide libraries, etc to develop SOAP based applications. Currently, the toolkits are provided for SOAP Programming in C/C++, Java, and PHP.

The Perl 5.8.0, Additional Modules for Perl, mod_perl for Apache, and SOAP packages provide the base and toolkit for the ability to develop SOAP based applications in Perl.

The Apache 2.0 Web Server is provided as an optional web server. Two different 'httpd' binaries are shipped in the package, based on two different MPMs (multi-processing modules): "worker" and "prefork". The apache2 package doesn't automatically replace the old Apache 1.3 Web Server; Administrators have to manually migrate data and configuration files from Apache 1.3. mod_perl 2.0 (version 1.99_09) is in a seperate package (modperl.pkg).
