Re: [Gumstix-users] Busybox web server process

[Tom G. <to...@gp...>]

Thanks for the info.  I run the commands and they say the following, but the
process does not appear to start..  It also looks like /usr/sbin/dropbear is
running twice.. (issue?)

Hi Tom,

> Where is it in the gumstix/busybox structure?

The web server is called boa. When it's running your 'ps' command will
show something like this:

  194 root        284 S   udhcpc -b -p /var/run/udhcpc.usb0.pid -i usb0
  228 root        304 S   udhcpc -b -p /var/run/udhcpc.mwlan0.pid -i mwlan0
  247 root        308 S   /usr/sbin/dropbear
  253 www-data    272 S   /usr/sbin/boa
  257 root        464 S   -sh

You can restart the web server by issuing the command:

/etc/init.d/S50httpd start

or possibly:

/etc/init.d/S50httpd restart


The document root can be found in /var/www

The correct command would be poweroff or possibly reboot
