Tinyhttpd是一个超轻量级Http Server, 使用C语言开发, 全部代码只有502行. 按照我的习惯, 自己fork一下, 便于添加注释和积累学习.
从source forge上下载后make编译不通过, 提示找不到lib socket, 发现去掉对lib socket的依赖也没问题.
httpd: httpd.c
gcc -W -Wall -lsocket -lpthread -o httpd httpd.c
改为:
gcc -W -Wall -lpthread -o httpd httpd.c
然后去掉几个小的warnning, 关于singned和unsigned的.
execute_cgi函数中也有错误
// 273行
execl(path, path, NULL);
// 改为
execel(path, query_string, NULL);

./httpdweb服务器就运行起来了. -
浏览器打开 http://127.0.0.1:8080 即可访问.

I wrote this webserver for an assignment in my networking class in 1999. We were told that at a bare minimum the server had to serve pages, and told that we would get extra credit for doing "extras." Perl had introduced me to a whole lot of UNIX functionality (I learned sockets and fork from Perl!), and O'Reilly's lion book on UNIX system calls plus O'Reilly's books on CGI and writing web clients in Perl got me thinking and I realized I could make my webserver support CGI with little trouble.
Now, if you're a member of the Apache core group, you might not be impressed. But my professor was blown over. Try the color.cgi sample script and type in "chartreuse." Made me seem smarter than I am, at any rate. :)
Apache it's not. But I do hope that this program is a good educational tool for those interested in http/socket programming, as well as UNIX system calls. (There's some textbook uses of pipes, environment variables, forks, and so on.)
One last thing: if you look at my webserver or (are you out of mind?!?) use it, I would just be overjoyed to hear about it. Please email me. I probably won't really be releasing major updates, but if I help you learn something, I'd love to know!
Happy hacking!
