apache2 solution,Server is now running!


After having numerous problems with apache we looked for an alternative, which after some research two common results appeared. We could either use the Cherokee web server application or a lighter version of apache customised for devices that run using an ARM processor, this we assumed to be the solution to the problem the apache was too demanding for the Raspberry pi(RPi) to handle. After installation the RPi was running without any problems, restarting the apache server didn’t hinder the RPi performance and we were able to access the default HTML page via another networked device. This now gave the RPi the functionality of being a web server.

 

CODE: The directory of the apache web-server:


sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
