Web server made in PHP

[cmxflash]

Just finnished writing a small web server written in PHP. It's a pretty good start if you want to know how web servers are working and if you're planning to build your own in the future.

This server is not multithreaded and can only serve a single user each time. It has a lot of limits, since I didn't really care to make a good server when there are so many other out there.

You can download it here.
If you just want to check out the source code, click here.

I just disected your PHP code and figured out some of it alread. I will post my
web server after I'm done. Let's see who has the best. lol

Just remember to inactivate the updates. If you change even a single byte in my code and have the update system turned on, the source will be reloaded from my server.

Right now this server does now support subdirs or directory listing. I will probably add it when I feel like it (or when I'm just bored in math class). The main reason why I disabled usage of subdirs is because of security reasons. This server also fails on serving really big files.

*Edit
I've added some comments in the source code. They will be downloaded automatically the next time the server starts.

I've just got done coding my Web Server in PHP. Mine supports sub directories
and all of Abyss Web Server's MIME Types. I added the Content-Length header
so that the files download at the right size. Enjoy!

P.S. It also supports spaces in the URL, so "Your File.zip" will also download.

cmxflash,

You need to set "Content-Length", and more MIME Types. Feel free to copy the
MIME Types from my PHP Server. You should also use urldecode() function, that
way you can support white spaces in the file names.

Sincerely, TRUSTAbyss

Just one question to you both since I'm too lazy yet to download and try out your packages. Does your php webserver process CGI (like PHP processing) requests?

Hmm... I guess it's easy enough to run a script. The problem I'm thinking of is on passing the GET parameters or POST content-entity body, along with HTTP variables and optional environment variables, capturing the STDOut results and pushing this information back to the socket. Anyways, I'm not adept at PHP - but you see, I am developing my own auxiliary webserver as well on another language and these are my challenges - on CGI.

Added PHP support in my web server. It uses shell_exec to run the same php.exe as the main server uses.

If you have the old version of my server, it will update next time you start it. Otherwise, a download-link is avaliable on the top of this page.
