Free Java Web Server

Introduction

JSerWeb is a flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant Java Web Server. JSerWeb supports the use of Perl and PHP scripts. These are very popular scripting tools for extending Web servers because they are extremely flexible and easy to learn. This is a GPL (free) software. For more information on the GPL license, read the file LICENSE.txt included in this distribution.

Requirements

  • JDK 1.3 or higher available here
  • Perl available here

Installation

JSerWeb doesn't need to be installed, just unzip the files into a directory and execute start.bat. By editing the files in directory \conf, you can configure the server. To get more information about how to modify these files, read the manual that you can find in the directory httpdoc\manual or just read the information included in each file in the \conf directory.

Once you have configured the server, you can start it by executing the file start.bat. Then start your Web browser and try this address http://127.0.0.1; you should be able to see the JSerWeb welcome page.
