Solving this webserver crashes (1 Viewer)

[gemx]

Hi,
i plan to release one final version of the MPWebServices with some fixes and some enhancements to the webservice.

but before the nastiest bug for most of you seems to be quite frequent crashes in the webserver which - unfortunately - i don't have and therefore can't reproduce.

There are 2 possible solutions:

1) Try to use IIS. You just have to create a new website and point the path of this in IIS to the folder where the aspx files reside

2) Try to install Ultidev Cassini WebServer (Download UltiDev Cassini Web Server). It's a free ASP.NET webserver. Although you have to give your email to get the download link, just enter a valid email like "my.email@mydomain.com" and you are forwarded to the download link

Please post your results in this thread.
After i got some feedback, we will decide to perhaps drop the inbuilt webserver.

have you talked to (forgot his name) the guy who codes iPIMP - he uses an integrated apache webserver and it is really stable - haven't seen any instability problems in iPIMP thread.

Apache won't help much since the pages and webservices are all coded in ASP.NET

I believe the iPimp pages are in asp.net and it uses the mod_aspdotnet module with apache to host the asp.net pages. It just might be worth taking a second look at disaster123's suggestion.

Oops, yep, you were right.

Didn't realize that iPimp also uses ASP.NET

Ok, just checked it.

The problem is that ipimp installs a full apache webserver including asp.net module.

I am rather searching for light-weight webserver that - ideally - comes in the form of an assembly

Wasn't fast enough OK apache isn't really leightweight BUT stable

Found another webserver assembly.
Please check this thread https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mpwebservices-463/please-try-new-webserver-81814/

Is it possible to install MPWebServices to use an existing Apache web server? My system already has Apache running and I would like to use it for MPWebServices (also)

 

[gemx]

Yup, no problem.
Just configure the htdocs path as asp.net website in apache and you are done.
You just have to choose another port then the one in TvPlugin
