"mod_dirlisting"

in the module listing alongside the "mod_cgi" (separate with a comma).

Restart the phone (I guess you could just restart lighttpd if you wanted) and you can browse your pdfs :-)

Edit: And you could probably style the directory listing via CSS (there's an option to enable this) to get something that looked very pretty on the iPhone. I'm crappy at CSS though.

I tried this but it didnt work. I changed the file as stated above, put it back in the /usr/local/etc/ overrighting the original. I restart lighttpd go to 127.0.0.1 and get "server not found". when I restore the original lighttpd.conf file and restart lighttpd it works fine but no directory browsing obviously.

Heres my lighttpd.conf, any help is appriciated

server.document-root = "/private/var/root/Sites/"
# server.port = 80 # Default
#server.bind = "127.0.0.1" # Default: All
server.modules = ( "mod_cgi", "mod_dirlisting" )
server.tag = "iPhone lighttpd"

#server.pid-file            = "/var/run/lighttpd.pid"

accesslog.filename = "/var/log/lighttpd/access.log"
server.errorlog = "/var/log/lighttpd/error.log"
dir-listing.activate = "enabled"

index-file.names = ( "index.php", "index.py", "index.pl", "index.cgi", "index.html", "default.html" )
url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc" )
static-file.exclude-extensions = ( ".php", ".pl", ".fcgi", ".cgi", ".py" )

I think you need to use the unload command. try using Erica Sudan's UIctrl

[cazlar]

Oops, just glancing at my conf file, it should read "enable", not "enabled". Sorry, I'll edit my earlier post, and also post my css when I get a chance today.

[shaiss]

would be nice if someone could make a css file or whatever so browsing the sites folder would feel like the iphone interface that the webapps use. that would be great!

[cazlar]

Here's my current one. As I said, I suck at CSS too, so I'm sure it can get a LOT better in the hands of a real designer

a, a:active {text-decoration: none; color: blue;}
a:visited {color: #48468F;}
a:hover, a:focus {text-decoration: underline; color: red;}

h2 {display:none;}
table {margin-left: 10px;}
th, td { font: 20pt Helvetica; text-align: left;}
th { font-weight: bold; padding-right: 14px; padding-bottom: 3px;}
td {padding-right: 10px; border-top: 1px solid #d9d9d9;}
td.s, th.s {text-align: right;}
div.list { font-size:36pt; background-color: white; }
td.m { font-size:16pt;}
td.t { font-size:20pt;}
td.s { font-size:24pt;}
td.n { font-size:40pt; padding-top:12px; padding-bottom:12px; }
div.foot {dispay:none; font: 1pt monospace; color: #fff;}

[shaiss]

cool, works for me, but yeah, I'm sure someone could do better

How does the apache server affect the batterylife?
When I unload -w or stop with UIctl, it still works in safari. and I still see it running with top in terminal.

[e-gold-casino]

Excellent, everything working OK. I'd managed to arrange all my PDFs, Docs, local htmls.

CSS file definitely needs tuning.

[bobjames]

I install apache and then open to safari and type in the web address where I get a message from apache saying software successfully installed.

I then use mobile finder to navigate to library but there is no WebServer folder and I can't find any file called index.html

Am i supposed to create the webserver and documents folders manually?

any help appreciated

and apache doesn't show up in my list of applications even though it says installed. I presume it is supposed to?

[The Spirit]

i have a pdf with around 12,5 mb. if i try to open it, safari tells me, that the "page is to big"
am i doing something wrong, or is safari really unable to open such large files?

[Tinman]

Yea the limit is either 10 or 11 MB.

But if you got Apache to run you should be able to install PDFViewer as well. I've opened PDFs with it that were much larger than 11 MB (over 100 MB).

Only thing is PDFViewer looks in /var/root/Media/PDF so the PDFs need to be placed there.

Hello,

When I try to install Apache on my iPhone `1.1.2`, it just closes down the installer once its done downloading :S

and when I try to install PHP, it says add a line $PATH.. and well I did that, but it still doesnt get installed since i cant run PHP command line.

EDIT:

I just noticed, that this happens not just with apache, when i install PXL too for example :S..

maybe it has something to do with my other post, the malformed mach-o file?

[nunoosorio]
