Description

Ocsigen Server implements most features of the HTTP protocol, and has a very powerful extension mechanism that makes it very easy to plug your own OCaml modules for generating pages. Many extensions are already implemented, like a reverse proxy, content compression, access control, authentication, etc.

README

Ocsigen server


Build instructions:

  • run "sh configure [options]" to generate 'Makefile.config'
  • For the full list of options, run "sh configure --help".
  • verify that 'Makefile.config' suits to your needs.
  • run "make" to compile
  • [optional] run "make logrotate" as root to install logrotate configuration files in /etc/logrotate.d
  • [optional] run "make doc" to build the ocamldoc
  • run "make purge" to uninstall everything (even configuration files)

Local testings:

  • run "make run.local" or "make run.opt.local" in the ocsigen source directory.
  • open http://localhost:8080/index.html in your browser
  • if it does not work, look at the logs (see 'local/var/log/' in the ocsgigen source directory) or run ocsigen with options -v.
