What is Aservia?
Aservia is a small, easy, simple HTTP-server. It is based on the nYume server. It can be compiled under platforms supported by Freepascal compiler.
Advantages
Simple, Cross-platform, Easy installation, Easy configuration, Run CGI applications, Organize virtual hosting with a set of sites on one IP, Open source.
Known Issues
Not yet optimized. Plain HTML scales okay (about 50-100 requests per second on older computer). It isn't the fastest server in the world. CGI programs may have issues if you request several tens of hits per second. Future releases will address the older nYume code.
Tips
If you have trouble connecting to port 80, stop Apache or other running servers (apachectl stop). You can use another port, but in your browser while testing you will have to specify it in the URL with a colon: localhost:port/index.html
