chttpd

February, 2005

If you want an httpd server to run, you may wish to look elsewhere. Rick Moen has a seemingly comprehensive list. If you want understandable source code to a simple HTTP/0.9 server, enjoy. I've heard that the OWFS project used it as initial code for owhttpd. Hope you find it useful

Prior Notes:

I found dhttpd and it was beautiful. Until the day I asked for http://nwonknu.org/micro-howto

without a / at the end, and it wouldn't give it to me.

I looked at the source and implemented a horrible kludge. Then I ripped out all of the c++

now renamed chttpd(since I can't find the guy who wrote dhttpd) it does

• Logging of errors to syslog or a file
• Logging of request to a file
• Runtime config file reading (without breaking compiled in defaults)
• No more c++ which cut the size of the executable down to 17k!
