hi I need to generate a new kernel for my mini2440, I include Apache. basically what I need is to create a mini-web-server. the problem is not where to begin. anyone can guide me in this? someone has a guide of how to compile a kernel for ARM and also includes an Apache? greetings
I created a web-server but using Java language.
hi as you have implemented the server? you used? apache? thttpd? I investigated to generate a new kernel, using buildroot, which is not yet, it is proper to do so through this method. I have not yet resolved as to upload the new kernel mini2440. greetings
I have implemented a http server using sockets. Here is a good tutorial about java webserver: http://fragments.turtlemeat.com/javawebserver.php
I'm running Angstrom currently which I've made with Apache. So I'm able to have HTML and PHP files, and then it works as a webserver!
You could try it with lighthttpd: http://www.lighttpd.net/
For Thomas J, I'm trying to make an angstrom image with Apache, but it doesn't finish to create image. How did you do? thanks Nick For Jay in case i would install lighthttpd on qtopia, how can i do? thanks Nick
Hello Thomas J,
I am also trying to do the same. Need to run PHP and HTML using
Angstrom image. Can you please tell me the procedure of cross-compiling
Apache to run HTML forms.
Thanks,
If anyone's still trying this, or has succeeded in cross-compiling Apache onto the 6410 or 2440, I'd be interested to hear from you. I'm currently working on getting Apache onto the 6410... it's not without its challenges, especially the configure script, but it should work ok. I'll also be porting over PHP5 - I need the two to run batch scripts and web pages to interact with some of the services on the board.
Do you need Apache? I run thttpd with PHP5 for what sounds like similar reasons.
Fair question, Dave. I like Apache, but maybe thttpd would do, will investigate that too. Is it simpler to cross-compile?
A lot simpler, because a guy at work had already done it and written a nice HowTo :) I re-wrote it and posted on here months ago. Only issue was that the 2011.03 toolchain from Pengutronix would only work with thttpd 2.21b. Their latest toolchain will work with 2.25b and so I might have to try upgrading to that version. I tried cross-compiling Apache a year or so ago and failed. Here's the link: http://www.friendlyarm.net/forum/topic/3100 When I up-grade I'll update the document.
