JdiWeb is an easy to use web server designed for personal use. It features a GUI for easy configuration. It can hide away in your task bar, and be brought back up on demand. It supports some CGI systems such as PHP and Perl. Currently advailable on Windows, with Linux and Mac versions in Beta, but mostly working, too. Currently features PHP and Perl support, logging, and a background mode. Unfortunately , do to a problem with Windows, I cannot guarentee that all PHP and Perl applications will work correctly. I am working on a fix, but use these at your own risk. Download
Update 1/9/07- I noticed a bug with the PHP section, where the headers where sent incorrectly. I fixed it and have now posted the update. It is relitivly minor.
Update 1/15/07- We know have a rather untested beta version for Macs! It's UB, so people with the new intel macs can still use it without problems. Downloads
Update 1/16/07- Some more bugs where found. Aliases/Shortcuts/syslinks would either crash the server, or give bad 404s, so I fixed that up. Also, not all the preferences where saved on non windows systems, so I fixed that. Thirdly, ports didn't change like the should requiring a manual restart of the server, so I automated it. I added a changelog, and added a default directory for files to host. Currently just for windows, as I haven't had the time to fix it up for anything else. Download
Update 1/16/07- 1.0.3 is now for Linux and Mac! It's still a beta, but it is much better than before.
Need help 1/28/07- While trying out stuff, I have found that, atleast on the windows version, there is a slow memory leak. I can't find the source of the problem. It isn't with PHP. It isn't with the sending of a file. It happens then, but also with directory listings and such. It isn't with logging, as even if that is disabled, it still happens. For the most part it shouldn't effect people, but you may have to quit and restart the program every once in a while. If you use RB, I would appreciate it if you could check to see where the leak might be and let me know.
Update 2/14/07- I found the source of the memory leak. It is only in thw windows version and stims from the plugin I use to use the system tray. As the icon changes, it uses up GDI handles and doesn't release them. I can minimize the problem now by not having the icon change. When I get some cash, I can upgrade my software and will not have the problem.

This shows a slightly out of date image of the main interface. Note that these are *all* of the controls necessary to run the webserver. |

This shows the taskbar icon when running in it's background mode the color changes to green when it is actively sending stuff, and red when the server is stopped. |

This shows the menu in the taskbar, allowing simple control of the server, and to bring the main window back up. |
