We then moved on to install Apache2 which allows us to create a web-server for the Raspberry Pi to receive information or commands from a certain website. However, during the installation process, the SD memory card which acts like a computer hard drive was corrupted. We tried to reboot the memory card but failed. We spent nearly two hours to download a new Raspian Wheezy operating system as well as installing it onto the formatted SD memory card. We then had to re-install everything we done in the past two weeks, and by the end of project week two we where back in business as GPIO pins were again configured. For the upcoming project week three, we will try to install Apache2, type up Python code scripts for the server to run upon command from a website and maybe even start testing the communication link between the web-site on our handheld mobile devices and the Raspberry Pi's web-server.
