Request: thttpd

Any chance someone could create a package for the Tiny http server, thttpd, available from:

http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/

Thanks.

zeppelin · 2004-09-28 22:04:46

I also would like to see that package. 8)

dp · 2004-09-28 22:56:31

what about a really big one? roxen: http://www.roxen.com/products/webserver/

(i experimented with it on a older SuSE installation - it is really huge)

no, seriously: thttpd is really usefull --- maybe i have some time this weekend ;-)

Cotton · 2004-10-17 10:13:45

Anyone?

i cannot watch people being sad ... here:

# $Id: $

pkgname=thttpd
pkgver=2.25b
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="tiny/turbo/throttling HTTP server"
url="http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/"
source=($url/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
  ./configure --prefix=/usr
  make || return 1
  mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/man/man1/
  make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr WEBGROUP=root install || return 1
  # install -D -m755 ../thttpd $startdir/pkg/etc/rc.d/thttpd
}

only thing:
/etc/rc.d/thttpd do not yet exist ... anyone to write one?

phrakture · 2004-10-21 14:33:09

bah not tested... I wrote this out in the forums and not on my linux box, so if it fails, then screw with it... i'll just provide a skeleton

#!/bin/bash

. /etc/rc.conf
. /etc/rc.d/functions

case "$1" in
    start)
      stat_busy "Starting thttpd"
      /usr/local/sbin/thttpd -D -C /usr/local/www/thttpd_config
      if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
          stat_fail
      else
          add_daemon thttpd
          stat_done
      fi
      ;;
    stop)
      stat_busy "Stopping thttpd"
      killall thttpd
      if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
          stat_fail
      else
          rm_daemon thttpd
          stat_done
      fi
      ;;
    restart)
      $0 stop
      sleep 1
      $0 start
      ;;
    *)
      echo "Usage $0 {start|stop|restart}"
      ;;
esac

and the config file: /usr/local/www/thttpd_config

dir=/usr/local/www/data
chroot
cgipat=**.cgi
logfile=/usr/local/www/logs/thttpd_log
pidfile=/var/run/thttpd.pid

replace /usr/local/ by /usr/ and these should be ok

thttpd-2.25b-1 -> testing

give it a try and report your success/failure with it

zeppelin · 2004-10-22 14:44:35

dp & phrakture, first of all thanks

Now I grabbed the package from testing and installed it.

it didn't work and it complained on starting thttpd

mkdir /usr/www/logs
mkdir /usr/www/data

fixed it a bit. but now I get this:

$ sudo /etc/rc.d/thttpd start
:: Starting thttpd [BUSY] /usr/sbin/thttpd: logfile is not within the chroot tree, you will not be able to re-open it

phrakture · 2004-10-22 15:05:40

you copied the config file to the right path?

zeppelin · 2004-10-23 09:14:32

grabbed the package from testing

$ pacman -Ql thttpd
thttpd /etc/
thttpd /etc/rc.d/
thttpd /etc/rc.d/thttpd
thttpd /usr/
thttpd /usr/man/
thttpd /usr/man/man1/
thttpd /usr/man/man1/htpasswd.1.gz

thttpd /usr/sbin/syslogtocern
thttpd /usr/sbin/thttpd
thttpd /usr/www/
thttpd /usr/www/cgi-bin/
thttpd /usr/www/cgi-bin/phf
thttpd /usr/www/cgi-bin/redirect
thttpd /usr/www/cgi-bin/ssi
thttpd /usr/www/thttpd_config

also made those 2 dirs or else it could complain
but now it also complains
I must be missing sth, and I will not be the only one, so it would be wise to put an echo in the package on what to do next, if we're supposed to do something more

thanks again

dp · 2004-10-23 10:30:11

thttpd-2.25b-1t2 is out:

changes:

- added missing dir /usr/www/data
- changed logs to be under /var/log/thttpd/

by the way:

  thttpd: /usr/man/man1/htpasswd.1.gz: owned by apache
  thttpd: /usr/sbin/htpasswd: owned by apache

it seems that apache conflicts with thttpd in this files --- diff says that they are not the identical --- anybody knows more about the difference of them?

zeppelin · 2004-10-23 14:13:39

still the same here..

$ sudo /etc/rc.d/thttpd start
:: Starting thttpd [BUSY] /usr/sbin/thttpd: logfile is not within the chroot tree, you will not be able to re-open it

i was not thinking while making 1t2 .... argh!

thttpd wants the log to be in the chroot? ok, let's do exactly that:
logfile=/usr/www/data/log/thttpd_log

1t3 is out and let's hope i was more concentrated this time :oops:

zeppelin · 2004-10-23 19:00:27

well

$ sudo /etc/rc.d/thttpd start
:: Starting thttpd [BUSY]

nothing else happens [i have to kill it]

d_tidptr=0xb7e9a4a8) = 15009
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGINT, {0x80789f0, [], 0}, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0
waitpid(-1,

so I'm guessing sth with the 'return' value that won't make it pass thru and it sticks to Busy because other than that it seems to work fine

just wondering: do you have some files under /usr/www/data? else, the server has nothing to offer, if i understand it right

thttpd comes really "tiny" and has no default dummy html file for the start

zeppelin · 2004-10-24 08:47:24

again the server works but it will freeze saying BUSY. try it yourself and you'll see.

$ pwd
/usr/www/data
[nk@Freud data]$ ls
foo foo.html log
$ su
Password:
[root@Freud data]# /etc/rc.d/thttpd start
:: Starting thttpd [BUSY]

the server works for you, but simply the /etc/rc.d/thttpd keeps being [busy]? sorry, that i didn't understand this the first time

i tried to run thttpd by hand and not from the rc.d script, sorry - i trusted that phrakture made it right

ok: 1t5 is out and i removed "-D" that hinders thttpd to become daemon ... see more info here:
http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/thttpd_man.html

zeppelin · 2004-10-24 15:55:39

well by removing -D we have these problems:

sudo /etc/rc.d/thttpd start
:: Starting thttpd [DONE]
[nk@Freud ~]$ sudo /etc/rc.d/thttpd restart
:: Stopping thttpd [BUSY] Terminated

-D works fine, but

if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
stat_fail
else
add_daemon thttpd
stat_done

don't seem to be the correct, cause eventhough the app seems to run ok, it keeps saying busy

phrakture · 2004-10-24 16:51:18

sorry about that - like i said i didnt test it...

#!/bin/bash

      if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
          stat_fail
      else
          add_daemon thttpd
          stat_done
      fi
      ;;
    stop)
      stat_busy "Stopping thttpd"
      [ ! -z "$PID" ] && kill $PID &>/dev/null
      if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
          stat_fail
      else
          rm_daemon thttpd

      fi
      ;;

      sleep 1
      $0 start
      ;;
    *)
      echo "Usage $0 {start|stop|restart}"
      ;;
esac

and the config file: /usr/local/www/thttpd_config
