Release of PhantomJS 2.0.1

[ariya]

This is the first maintenance release after 2.0.0 designed to address immediate critical issues.

• Update ChangeLog
• Update web sites
• Upload source tarball
• Prepare OS X binary
• Prepare Windows binary
• Prepare Linux 64-bit binary
• Prepare Linux 32-bit binary

@ariya I've not tested via Linux/OSX but has 2.0.0 taken on the scaling problems that Windows had prior to 2.0.0 on these platforms? See this example/issue with a detailed response from me on my own findings in this comment. You can see that with 2.0.0 on OSX example image, the original content has been scaled up by 1/3rd converting it from 72px per inch to 96px per inch(CSS inch), if I'm not mistaken this is due to OSX being 72dpi? I'm not sure what changes with 2.0.0 caused this, but Windows now renders PDF perfectly, hopefully you can fix this issue asap :)

[mickaelandrieu]

@ariya any release date ? I'm thinking about prepare a release for CasperJS with phantomjs 2 support :)

[thomasbachem]

I think a regression like #12685 cannot wait for 2.1 and should instead be part of 2.0.1.

[benjaminwood]

I agree, #12685 is a dealbreaker for many of us. I'm excited to upgrade some projects to v2, but can't do it until this is resolved.

[floundies]

^ agreed. thanks for all the hard work.

[vitallium]

Issues to fix before we release 2.0.1 version:

• Integrate the latest version of Ghostdriver
• Webpage.uploadFile not working in phantomjs 2.0 #12506
• Static build complication on Linux due to OpenSSL and ICU #12948
• OS X binary does not work on Snow Leopard and Yosemite #12900
• PhantomJS 2: PDF rendering too large, page.zoomFactor doesn't work #12685

[mickaelandrieu]

@vitallium Sorry to not have the skills for help (I don't know C++).
If I can do something to help you (like testing installation process on my linux mint 17) tell me :)

[LeMoussel]

@vitallium Sorry itou
I can help you to testing installation process & application on Windows 7 64 bits & 32bits.

[vitallium]

FYI: I recently discovered that we have a Gitter chat for PhantomJS. You can catch me there.

[LeMoussel]

Is this Gitter chat : https://gitter.im/ ?

[vitallium]

@LeMoussel yes. Direct link to the chat - https://gitter.im/ariya/phantomjs

Any news on 2.0.1 release?

[ronwsmith]

[rovanalfarry]

👍👍👍

[davidwindell]

👎 PDF's still not working on 2.x in Linux

[vitallium]

@davidwindell issue?

[davidwindell]

@vitallium #12685 (and it's associated dupes #13048 #12990, etc). Stuck on 1.x for now :(

[vitallium]

@davidwindell this issue is in the block list for 2.0.1 :-)

[Friedel-Castor]

A nice to have is IMHO a fix for #10465 and an opportunity to repeat the table headers after a page break.

[alecl]

Pardon if I've misunderstood but given only #12506 seems to be the only regression from 2.0.0 that breaks people's test cases outright and a fix is already known for a few months I'm not sure why that can't be released as 2.0.1 (source + Windows / OS X binaries) and the others worked on for a separate release. Releasing often is a good thing.

[rrooding]

That would be great :)!

[Deradon]

[alibojar]

👍

[alecl]

Would be much appreciated!

[jeantil]

As I understand it, building binaries for el capitan requires #13640 to be merged. It would be nice if that happened before 2.0.1 :)

[vitallium]

@jeantil yes, 2.0.1 will support El Capitan.

[jeantil]

Nice ! Let us know if we can help :)

[jcrben]

With regard to #12506, it seems that the issue is reported upstream at https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-44237

[rajachawat]

Will 2.0.1 support TLSv1.2?

[MartinKoerner]

@vitallium thx for the prerelease, but are you sure, it has all planned fixes for 2.0.1 included? I'm on El Capitan and running both into errors in Upload form and with strange "undefined is not an object" errors (which were the reason, we tried PhantomJS 2 in the first place)

The "inofficial" prerelease from July (found here https://github.com/skakri/phantomjs/releases/tag/2.0.1-regression-12506) solved these issues (on El Capitan, but not on Ubuntu).

I'm not sure if I should introduce a new bug report for this, because I fear it gets very confusing with different bugs for different "versions of 2.0.1"...

[brunowego]

👍

[vitallium]

@MartinKoerner not all. This prerelease doesn't have two fixes.

[zhagnsz]

oh, It's important to me about fixed bug below;
1.Webpage.uploadFile not working in phantomjs 2.0 #12506
#12506
2. PhantomJS 2 does not build on OS X 10.10 (Yosemite)
#12928
when i build phantomjs from sourcecode, i got some errors:
a.error: "Feature _POSIX_TIMERS not available"
b.error: use of undeclared identifier
c.error: no member named 'posix_fallocate' in the global namespace
d.error: no member named 'mremap' in the global namespace
e. error: use of undeclared identifier 'MREMAP_MAYMOVE'
f.fatal error: 'sys/inotify.h' file not found
g. fatal error: 'sys/eventfd.h' file not found
......
i am very hurry, please help to to fix first bug. thank you.......

[vitallium]

@zhagnsz we have fixes for both issues. So, don't worry. They are included in the upcoming 2.0.1 release.

[zhagnsz]

@vitallium okay, thank you very much! when are you going to update to the 2.0.1 version.....

[bcardiff]

+1 for a release of 2.0.1. We would really enjoy #12506 + El capitan support.

[fabn]

@vitallium Any ETA for 2.0.1? Thanks.

[dbrans]

+1

[ariya]

We're low on manpower so we won't do 2.0.1 at all. We'll skip to 2.1 (follow #12970).
