Setting up a website on amiga
« on: June 17, 2006, 10:22:39 PM »
So totally new on this.
I did some research in the past and seems I need Metalweb to create the pages.
I can try the demo for now.
I have setup miami and genesis which are both configured to a static IP with a router.
The router is what makes the Ip static as my provider only delivers a static one.
My provider also gives me 50MB on space to use for a website.
Or is there a way I can set it up on my amiga4000 so I don't have that 50MB restriction?
Do I need to set up that Appache thing then?
Questions,questions...
Maybe a few links to people who already managed to set up a site on an amiga?

Ok I set up this W3s server thingie and I am able to acces in my local network my "site"
Now offcourse I want to be able to have acces from beyond my local network.
I also have dhcp.
Did see something in my routermanual about this DynDNS thing I thought.
But I'll have to have a url right?
So I'll get an url from this DynDNS if I register there???
Step by step...

Cablemodem.
It is an Eminent(EM4013) and the manual does speak about Dynamic DNS.
The router is changing the IP adres from Dynamic to static at the moment.

Hoerah I have a contact to the outside/inside.
No url yet bet that is just a matter of time.
I only hope this WAN IP adres is the same everytime?
So it isn't dynamic I mean.
Well time will tell I guess.

I had a neat working connection including a url.
Still have a working connection but when trying to show/load the site it doesn't read the whole page.
It just loads 2 out of the 3 pictures of the page if I am lucky.
Loading it with local file in a browser works ok.
Problem with GW3s ??
It also freezes the computer sometimes when automatically started on startup of genesis.
Also have miamidx but would that make any difference?
Maybe I should try an other webserver.
