Standard server
Generic web server, perhaps for the company home pages, with some
useful modules added.
- Create a virtual server using the Generic server type.
- Add and configure some additional modules of your choice.
Perhaps:
- Pike tag
-
This
module can be used for advanced applications, allowing the use
of pike code in the HTML/RXML pages. But be careful with the
the security considerations.
- Configure the file system module.
- Filesystem
-
Search
path: Fill in the location, in the computers file system, where
the HTML pages that should be used for the site will be located.
Example: /usr/www/company_name/
- Configure the Server variables.
- Configure a port.
The default port for web servers using the HTTP protocol is
80 and this is probably the port you want to use for a public
information server.
- Click Save to save the server configuration on disk.
The server will also try opening the port. You will be asked if the
chosen URL for the site is correct. If you want to use another port
than 80, you probably need to alter this.
Note: Ports below 1024 can only be used if the server is run, or
at least started, as root.
