I think @ajnakata was meaning about "outlook", is how to make it look iphone-like style, but not "ugly apache" as now
Is it possible or another web server is needed?

Any web server is going to list the same. To make it display "pretty", you have to make an html page and write some html.

I'm getting the same error message that danc is seeing. lighttpd runs fine by itself, but loading the plist fails with:

launch_msg(): Socket is not connected

I'm running on a 3G with 2.0.1. I found this error in some other forums regarding some other apps, but no useful information on what the error actually means.

Any ideas?

Edit: Forgot to mention, I did everything via ssh logged on as root.

The screen shot you showed displays a dynamic page (aka, a page generated with PHP/Perl or CGI). Only if PHP is available for 2.0, this would be easy with the files provider by someone a few post above.

I don't have a clue. I'm on 2.0.1 iPod and it works fine here. I get the same working results from both the Terminal app on the device and ssh from laptop.

Try the old plist:

<dict>
	<key>Label</key>
	<string>com.amcgregor.lighttpd</string>
	<key>OnDemand</key>
	<false/>
	<key>ProgramArguments</key>
	<array>
		<string>/usr/sbin/lighttpd</string>
		<string>-f/usr/local/etc/lighttpd.conf</string>
		<string>-D</string>
	</array>
	<key>StandardErrorPath</key>
	<string>/dev/null</string>
</dict>

Modify your config and plist name

I tried the old plist, and I got the same error. I'm not sure it's actually an issue though. Lighttpd is loading at startup and so far everything seems to be working ok.

Hi, this is great. Thanks to the guide here, I got it to work on my local wireless network. But have anyone had luck using it on the AT&T network? http to the ip address from AT&T but it does not work that way. Dose AT&T block port 80?

re: access forbidden

When I looked at the .conf file, I thought what's with "/private/var/mobile/Sites/"? And promptly changed it to "/var/mobile/Sites/".

I got the 403 Access Forbidden mentioned above until I changed it back, even with the appropriate permissions. It seems like the two directories are sim-linked to each other... but something else is up.

Anyone know why the /var/mobile/Sites/ didn't work?

Thanks,

Has anyone gotten start/stopping with bossprefs? Hmm i tried loading and unloading the loadctl way and it didn't work.

Starting it manually /usr/sbin/lighttpd -f /usr/etc/lighttpd.conf doesn't work either, although it works in SSH / MobileTerminal

So i made a script for BossPrefs to run,

/usr/sbin/lighttpd -f /usr/etc/lighttpd.conf
echo "lol" > /var/mobile/test.log

it definitely runs the script ok, since test.log contains "lol"

but it JUST doesnt want to start lighttpd! Anyone help?

so... you can't actually PLAY files like mpg/avi with this though right?

Dear friends. I am using an iphone 3g with firmware 2.0.1. I have done everything as xogen said in his first post. I have done all the files and folders. I gave the correct permissions to the document root (755). I also run chown nobody to the document root (so that the user the webserver is running to have access to the folder.All I get when I point safari to http:// 127.0.0.1] or http:// localhost all I get is 403 - Forbidden. Please help anyone!!

[xogen]

If you want the webserver to have access to a folder, it must have access to every folder in it's path. ex: /private/var/mobile/Sites

If I chmod 755 /private/var/mobile/Sites then the webserver has access to Sites but I didn't give it access to mobile so it can't access the folder.

If I give you a key to my apartment but not my apartment building, how are you supposed to get in?

[sotoskawasaki]

I did that too ... Again nothing changed....All I get is 403 - Forbidden. Anyway I notice that the chgroup nogroup command doesnt work. The default group is mobile. I tried to change the group in lighttpd.conf to mobile but again it didnt work.

Edit: I must have done something wrong because I did it again and it works now. Thanks!! And by the way does anyone knows a good tutorial on how to set up vsftp server on iphone?
