v1.14 Latest

Latest

What changed

Added LINGER_TIMEOUT config option to control how long the server waits for the client to disconnect after the response is sent (Default: 5 seconds). Set to 0 to wait forever. This fixes the issue where malicious actors could create an infinity of zombie processes.
Config file renamed from env.example to .env.example
Config options are now grouped by category in the example file

v1.13

709b6a8

v1.13

What changed

Added LOG_LEVEL config option to control log verbosity (none, info, debug). Default: info
Added USE_CHROOT config option to jail the server inside DOCUMENT_ROOT at startup. Only applies when running as root. Default: true
Added DROP_PRIVILEGES config option to drop to the nobody user after startup. Only applies when running as root. Default: true
In debug mode, the server now logs startup info (UID, PID, full config dump), child process lifecycle, resolved paths and HTTP methods, dotfile blocks, response status codes and byte counts, signal handler registration results, and chroot/privilege-drop outcomes
Debug log lines are prefixed with * <PID>: <message> to make per-process traces easy to follow
When LOG_LEVEL is set to none, request logs are still written to LOG_FILE if one is configured
Request log lines are now assembled into a buffer before being written, reducing log corruption under concurrent load
Fixed minor issues and probably created major ones

v1.12

d22cf95

v1.12

What changed

Headers are lowercased before processing, so proxies or clients sending non-standard casing won't break features like X-Real-IP or If-Modified-Since.
X-Real-IP logging now falls back to the direct client IP if the header is missing or empty, instead of logging nothing.
X-Real-IP now supports IPv6 addresses.

v1.11

What changed

Added BIND_ADDRESS config option to set which network interface the server listens on (Default: 0.0.0.0).
The startup log now shows the full bind address and port (e.g. Listening on 0.0.0.0:8080).
Error messages are now printed to STDERR.
Fixed a bug where the simultaneous connection counter could overflow after 255 connections.

v1.9

v1.9

What changed

Added persistent request logging to file in Apache HTTP Server combined log format (CLFE), including client IP, timestamp, request line, status code, response size, referer, and user-agent.
Added LOG_FILE config option to specify a custom log file path (default: logs to STDOUT).
The install script now creates /var/log/nasmserver.
Requests now parse and log User-Agent and Referer headers for richer analytics.
If the log file cannot be opened, a warning is logged and STDOUT is used as a fallback.

New log format:

127.0.0.1 - - [25/Mar/2026:16:47:06 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 3501 "-" "NASM-Client/1.0"
