the DtTvB's AutoIt Web Server

[spyrorocks]

I was planning on working on some .htaccess-like behaviour for this server.

[amdead]

can you give me a step by step guide to making the server work?

[spyrorocks]

Run the server as it is and it should work.

Im making some UDFs like the gui functions in autoit exept to make web controls. Its turning out great. It will have lots of compatability with this server.

[amdead]

how do other people connect to the server?

[jvanegmond]

how do other people connect to the server?

Use their browser.

I must say.. That the web-pages look great! And the script is incredibly cool.

[spyrorocks]

http://127.0.0.1:<your server port>/index.html

that should gte you to your index server page.

Novice html users might like to sue my upcomming udf that will allow you to create controls in the web browser just like the autoit gui functions.

[amdead]

how do i find the server port?

[spyrorocks]

Its in a variable inside the server.au3 script at the top.

[amdead]

global $listenIP = ''; IP to listen to.

global $listenPort = 27643; Port to listen to.

them the right ones?

DtTvB, Please merge that into your release.

edit: *snip*, See first post

it fixes a vulnerability that could turn you server into a cpu eating zombie...

You can even exploit the server with your browser, but i wont tell how

i have a better idea then the load balancer.

i'll (try to) write a dll that sends files i a separate thread

so the server can work on the next request.

the load balancer had a real drawback on bandwith.

for example the server served a file with ~4000kb/sec and throu the loadbalancer it where only ~400kb/s

i cant get it to work. does it matter if am behind a router?

[NELyon]

Did you port forward?

[amdead]

whats that mean?

[the DtTvB]

Uhh, I included it. Thank you very much, piccaso! I will inspect the code to get new knowledge!

Got to go to school, see you later.

[piccaso]

look for [piccaso 1.2]

here is the next version with threaded file transport.

way faster than the load balancer

edit:

Fixed some bugs

i had > 15Mb/sec with this dll (local network of course)

but it still has problems with small files but i have to go to sleep now...

This is really cool, guys. Keep up the good work!

This is really cool, guys. Keep up the good work!

thanks

we'll do

Fixed Some problems with async.dll (v0.5)

Added some mime types

Added 'Content-Length' Header for file indexing

Changed spyro's Preprocessor for @autoitexe compatibility (Apzo's first idea)

...

well do a diff on it if you want to know all

if someone still has problems with Threaded Transport, let me know...

Ok, beforeI dive in, maybe a little info would be good

does the .exe preprocessor allow you to run an autoit .exe in the browser, such as a gui display or ?

I'm setting it up as we speak, gonna play with it and see what can be done.

Really looking forward to utilizing this, I already have a couple of great ideas, all depends on implementation

[piccaso]

it acts like a webserver.

you can use autoit like pearl in cgi scripts...

[Guest JRowe_1]

I don't mean to be stupid, but you may as well have said

it acts like a webserver.

you can use autoit like mumfuzzle in fibblefob scripts...

I get the general idea, though. Wondering if I might use this as a general authentication server to pass MySQL queries through, using the MySQL UDF, as a way of securing my Time Tracker app...

Anyway, it's very cool.
