Use Personal Web Sharing to Serve an External Drive?

I have many files on one of my external drives that I need to serve up via Personal Web Sharing. While http://localhost/~username works great, I can't figure out how to share that external drive.
I have tried creating both a Finder alias and an actual symlink to the drive within my ~/Sites/ directory but neither work.
Is this possible?

What do you mean by indefinite exactly?
Have you repaired permissions since installing PHP5?
Indefinite, as it forever stays as 'Web Sharing starting up...'. Yes, I have repaired perms.

Trouble Testing Server Side Includes using personal web sharing

I am using the book "Standard complant websites using dreamweaver 8" One of the exercises has me testing that server side includes are enabled by creating two files ssi_test.shtml and hello.html. I have placed these two files in the documents subfolder which web server is the main folder.
Since I only see a blank page when I test, the book says I need to tweak the Apache configuration to enable SSI. It says to open httpd.conf file (which I can not find) . I am suppose to insert the following lines: AddType text/html .shtml and Addhandler server-parsed .shtml
Where is this file httpd.conf file located?
How do I modify it?
Thanks for your support

It is in /private/etc/httpd directory.
You will need a file editor that knows how to authenticate or to learn some basics with the command line and unix to use sudo to edit the file.
<pre>sudo pico /private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf</pre> is where I recommend you start if you don't know emacs or vi or another of the fine unix editing tools that are provided...
An article that was intended to fix a different problem - but has all the steps you need to locate the terminal application, learn about sudo, etc... is http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301580

Accessing separate drive with Personal Web Sharing

Is it possible to simply use Personal Web Sharing to access an external Firewire hard drive?
I have zero experience with Apache or most server operations. I can set up pretty basic sites with Dreamweaver and/or simple HTML. So if it is possible but difficult, I may need step by step instructions.
I would really like to access this drive because it is easier to keep the large video files on it, but I would like to transfer them to my PS3 on a semi-regular basis. My PS3 has no problem accessing my sites folder (other than not showing the directory so I have to code an index file for it).
Any way I can redirect my PS3 to my external drive using the Web sharing feature? Or is it exclusive to my users drive?
Sorry to ask a simple question, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere.
Help is greatly appreciated to either of my problems. Accessing an external drive or figuring out why I get 403 Forbidden messages unless I code an index file.

Is this drive connected to your computer? Are you trying to access the computer remotely? If so then you need to turn on file sharing and remote access.

MacoBook Pro connecting wirelessly via Personal Web Sharing from iMac G5

Subject line says it all... more specifically my problem is that some things seem "blocked" on the MBP when i'm connecting wirelessly via my iMac network, but then are 100% functional when I use other wireless networks.
examples:
• gmail via Mail.app [mailbox always has the ! symbol and says it's timed out]
• playing app-based online games, certian functions will not work
• using FTP software, it won't connect
Maybe this an issue I can fix with port forwarding, if so how do I go about doing this? I was told my iMac is technically acting as a router, but I don't have a lot of experience with this type of networking. Thanks!

Personal Web Sharing can be a bit tricky and yes, it's because of the firewall on the Mac that's sharing its connection.
The actual firewall software in the Mac is completely configurable, but the friendly user interface doesn't support the more sophisticated configurations. Fancier setups would require the use of commandline scripts run from Terminal.
You'll save yourself a lot of headaches if you buy a wireless base station, and forget about using Personal Web Sharing. A $60 Linksys will do the job nicely.

Personal Web Sharing - Setting up an OS X Server

A question regarding personal web sharing. I am trying to turn my sister's old slot loading iMac into a web server. I wiped the machine and installed a clean copy of OS X 10.2 and then performed all available software updates. I have the site loaded in the web server folder in the main library.
The problem is getting the site to load on computers outside of my local network. I configured my router to send traffic on port 80 to my server computer. The firewall on the server computer is open on port 80 (PWS).
I can access my website from all the computers on my network, but not from any computer outside of it. I try entering the IP address that this website(http://www.whatismyip.com/) gives to me, but it just says that the server couldn't be found.
Any suggestions? All help is tremendously appreciated.
iMac (Flat Panel) Mac OS X (10.4.7)

well if it is the case that your isp is blocking the ports then the only way around is to get another isp... or to hack thier router that you sit behind The former is probably the better idea haha.
Also it may be that your isp offers you server space with your internet service - many do... it usually isnt much but it might work for you. Also most have service upgrades you could chose to do which would mostlikely give you the port access you need and possibly a static ip address. However these are likely to be geared towards small business so your internet service would most likely double in price. And ofcourse you could get a hosting account. IF its not for a professional site there are alot out there that you can get for as little as 3 bucks a month....
In regard to what BD said above... you can check out all the rules in the firewall and make sure theres nothing funy in there somehow by using this command in the terminal:
sudo ipfw show
that will print a list of rules in the firewalll

Personal Web Sharing and Filemaker Server Advanced

After migrating from FileMaker Server-7 Advanced and installing version-8 Advanced web components (w/Easy Install) and restarting the Mac, Personal Web Sharing refuses to activate. I also cannot access the Filemaker Admin Console to create the FMSA account to register it with the database server.
OSX Console log listed this error below when trying to start Apace with Personal Web Sharing:
Syntax error on line 1 of /Library/FileMaker Server/Web Publishing/web-configuration/WEB-INF/conf/mod_jk.conf:
Cannot load /usr/libexec/httpd/modjkfm.so into server: (reason unknown)
/usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started
Line 1 of the mod_jk.file reads:
LoadModule jkfmmodule libexec/httpd/modjkfm.so
What needs to be corrected so I can start web sharing and access the FileMaker Web Publishing Engine in the browser?
Using Mac OSX 10.4.6 on Mac Mini w/Intel dual core

Apache is trying to load modjkfm.so which should be stored in /usr/libexec/httpd, but it isn't.
This file should be installed by the Filemaker Server installer. If it wasn't installed by the Easy Install option, check the other install options to see if it's there.

Personal Web Sharing server will not start.

I cannot start Personal Web Sharing. Have tried to install apache2, mysql and php from here: http://www.serverlogistics.com/downloads.php and since then it would not start.
What can I do? Is there anyway I can reverse to old settings from a sertain date like you can on a windows system?
If I try to start Apache in Termianl I get this:

Imac Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.7)

If you're just trying to get the default install to work again, we'll need to determine if the ServerLogistics install you said you tried has overwritten the system files, or set itself up separately.
To see what version is installed in the default location, from the Terminal run:
/usr/sbin/httpd -v
This will report something like:
Server version: Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin)
Second, you can test your config files to see if they are all valid by running:
/sbin/apachectl configtest
This is what Apache does when it starts up, but without changing the process status. You'll be looking for a "Syntax OK" at the end of the output, or else specific error messages in your config files.
Finally, you can check whether you have an Apache process already running a few different ways. One is to look in the /var/run directory for a 'httpd.pid' file, which will contain the process ID of any running Apache process. The other is to search the active process list:
ps -ax | grep httpd
If you see any matches other than your own 'grep httpd' command in the list, you may already have an Apache running and thus be unable to get another one to start via the Personal Web Sharing control panel.
Again, the remedy would be clearer with some input from the ServerLogistics install documentation - what files were put where, how do they interact (if at all) with Apple's versions, etc.

Pixelpost and Personal Web Sharing in Tiger

Dear Friends:
I figured out how to install Pixelpost (for a photoblog) in my OS X Tiger system -- by using MAMP. I changed the Document Root in MAMP so that now it looks to the Personal Web Sharing folder in the Mac (the Sites folder in the /usr/ space). The installation of Pixelpost works fine, letting me add images, manage it, etc. However, when I type in the computer address ("personal website") as provided in the Sharing tab under system preferences, it does not bring me at all to the photoblog. For instance:
http://my.computer.address/ (just brings me to the regular Apache Server notice that it is running)
if I type this:
http://my.computer.address/~username/
It brings me to the generic OS X page in place. But when I type:
http://my.computer.address/~username/pixelpost/
it opens to the pixelpost directory which I placed in the Sites folder. What I'd like to do is figure out what address will call up this blog so that others can access it.
The blog comes up fine under this URL:
http://localhost:8888/pixelpost/
But that's not a proper address for external viewing. So, what address should I provide others? I've tried various configurations with the address provided in the Sharing tab of System Preferences, but no luck so far.
Thanks!

I changed the Document Root in MAMP so that now it looks to the Personal Web Sharing folder in the Mac (the Sites folder in the /usr/ space
I think you mean /Users/ space. /usr is something completely different.
http://my.computer.address/ (just brings me to the regular Apache Server notice that it is running)
Then it means you didn't change the DocumentRoot like you think you did. If you did, and assuming you restarted Apache after changing the DocumentRoot, then this URL would point to whatever directory you specified (/Users/whoever/Sites) and not /Library/WebServer/Documents.
But [http://localhost:8888/pixelpost> is not a proper address for external viewing.
but it can be. If all you're using this for is PixelPost then just setup the port forwarding on your router to forward to port 8888 rather than port 80 and you're done.
Now, that said, the fact that you're using two different ports here (port 80 and port 8888) means that, at the very least, you are running two virtual hosts, or quite possibly two completely separate Apache instances.
That could explain why changing the DocumentRoot doesn't help. You may have changed either the PixelPost VirtualHost configuration, or the MAMP-specific server configuration, but that's not the server/virtualhost you're talking to on port 80.
I've never used MAMP, so I don't know how it installs, but it wouldn't surprise me to find that it installs a whole new Apache distribution and you'd need to find that server and its configuration files to fix the DocumentRoot problem, if that's the way you want to go.
You can also fix it via a simple Alias in the standard Apache configuration - just alias /pixelpost to /Users/whoever/sites/pixelpost - that way users who hit /pixelpost on your server will get the User-specific directory, while all other URLs continue to be served via /Library/WebServer/Documents. This might improve security and avoid the possibility of leaking other content from your home directory that you don't want to make available.

Personal Web sharing not installed HOW - do I install?

Hi - I have had an extremely frustrating 4 hours or so between trying to google a solution to the problem and examining the contents of the installation disk with pacifist - I am still none the wiser.
I have not tried to set up a localhost server on my Intel Mac running 10.4.9 I have had since september and it should be as easy as pie to do so from what I have read.... but not in my case!
I went to apple > system preferences > sharing and tried to check personal web sharing as suggested in many places but get this for my trouble
'Web Sharing is not installed on this computer. To install Web Sharing, use the Mac OS X installer.'
My question is how do I do so without dausing a reformat and still not getting the option?
I have used pacifist to try and locate either PWS or apache installers inon the disc but sinply am at a loss to find either. Hope someone can help
Thanks in advance

NOt that I am aware of - I may have tried to do something like launch the apache index page from httpd or similar in the first couple of days of owning the machine but unless by some sure accident I have not altered any settings.... ( I never got into admin settings or any of that from what I remember)
I'm not even looking for PHP or mySQL now - Just a running WS so that I can test CSS in it.
Even so - I still have absolutely no idea where the pws taller is located on the installation disk that I am referred to so therefore am not willing to unstall it for reasons mentioned. I most certainly do not want a reinstall for the sake of a little but in my case neccessary application
Good point Gnarlodious - like to hear what angle you are coming from on this (particularly if you can help me get this sorted out from the disk as Apple suggest. Much as I love my conversion to apple I have to say the documentation and overall support from the site is appalling (I thought Microsoft was bad......). Instructions such as that encountered on the PWS toggle are vague to say the very least
Thanks for the reply

PERSONAL WEB SHARING ON iMAC G5 WILL NOT START

hello:
i am hoping someone would be able to help me on this issue. i attempted to start the Personal Web Sharing service on my computer (iMAC G5 with MAC OS 10.4) from System Preferences > Sharing. however, after i highlight Personal Web Sharing on the list of services and click the Start button, the message changes to "web sharing starting up..." and simply remains that way (i've waited for a long time). it does not change to "web sharing on".
am i doing something wrong? is it possible that my Apache installation has been compromised? my goal is to be able to use my computer to create and run .php web pages.
any help / suggestions are greatly appreciated
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Sorry, this still doesn't seem to be working.
Actually, it's me steering you wrong. It's been a while since I fooled around with the Entropy PHP installation and it looks like he's changed it.
He used to put the configuration stuff for PHP at the bottom of the main Apache config file, but now he's putting it in that separate file in the httpd users directory. That's why moving the default Apache configuration file into place didn't help.
You have two choices: one is to just forget about the PHP5 stuff for now and go with Apple's default PHP install. The other is to try to get PHP5 up and running.
The first option is very easy: just run this command:
<pre class="command">mv private/etc/httpd/users/+entropy-php.conf ~/Desktop</pre>That will put the offending file on the desktop. Now try starting the web server. Most likely, PHP won't work yet, but Apache should start. In order to use the default PHP5, you need to make some changes to the httpd.conf file. You can use pico in the Terminal. It's pretty simple and the key commands are printed at the bottom. Where you see the up arrow listed, that means to use the "control" key, i.e., "control"-x to exit. You need to use sudo, though so you have root privileges:
<pre class="command">sudo pico /etc/httpd/httpd.conf</pre>Search ("control"-w) for "php". The first line you'll see is this:
<pre class="command">#LoadModule php4_module libexec/httpd/libphp4.so</pre>Uncomment it by removing the "#" from the start of the line. Search again until you find this line:
<pre>#AddModule mod_php4.c</pre>Again, remove the "#". Now search again until you find these lines:
<pre class="command"><IfModule mod_php4.c>
# If php is turned on, we repsect .php and .phps files.
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
# Since most users will want index.php to work we
# also automatically enable index.php
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
</IfModule>
</IfModule></pre>Just verify that they look like these. If they don't, copy and paste your corresponding lines into a reply. Now stop and restart the web server and see if PHP pages will work. You should be using OS X's built-in 4.x version.
If, on the other hand, you'd rather use the Entropy PHP5 installation, post back and tell me and we'll see if we can figure out what's up with that...

Personal Web Sharing or equivalent?

I'm working on a server running Mac OS X Server version 10.4.5. I'm trying to set up personal web sharing, or whatever server equivalent there is, but I'm running into a major problem. Everything I've read tells me that I should be able to go to System Preferences->Sharing and there should be a checkbox to turn on personal web sharing. However the only options there are:
Remote Login
Apple Remote Desktop
Remote Apple Events
Does anybody know what's causing this, or what server equivalents I can use?

The sharing thing in system preferences works on regular OS X, but not in server.
Whatever you want to share, you have to put in the sites folder of your home directory. There's a fairly detailed explanation of it on pages 53-54 in the web technologies admin pdf (I downloaded it from the apple site somewhere, but I can't remember exactly where - probably in manuals or downloads. I'd be happy to email it to you if you like). Good luck.

Unable to start up Personal Web Sharing (OS X 10.3.9)

I have been trying to start up Personal Web Sharing since yesterday. It keeps saying "Web Sharing starting up...", but nothing ever happens.
Actually, what I want to do is to set up a test server environment (not a real server for everyone on the web to access) to learn PHP, MySQL and XOOPS. I bought Teach Yourself PHP, MySQL and Apache by Julie C. Meloni (Sams Publishing) and installed MySQL 5.0.22 and PHP 5.1.4 following the instructions on the book. But I was not able to see anything when I entered http://localhost/phpinfo.php on FireFox. (The book tells me to create a simple script called phpinfo.php and save it to /Library/WebServer/Documents.)
I thought the problem might be that I didn't have Personal Web Sharing on, so I went to System Preferences' Sharing panel to start it up. But it just hangs in starting mode... never starts...
I tried Charles's suggestion to Harvey ( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=680762&#680762 ). The /usr/sbin/apachectl configtest command returns the following result:
Processing config directory: /private/etc/httpd/users/*.conf
Processing config file: /private/etc/httpd/users/+entropy-php.conf
Syntax error on line 8 of /private/etc/httpd/users/+entropy-php.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/php5/libphp5.so into server: (reason unknown)
I'm wondering if PHP 5.x does not support Panther, but php.net doesn't seem to say so... (I downloaded PHP 4.4.4, but haven't figured out how to use it to replace PHP 5.1.4...) Or maybe it's because I'm connecting to the web via an open network (at a cafe)?
Any suggestions will be much appreciated!
powerbook g3 firewire Mac OS X (10.3.9) XLR8 G4 upgraded

Thank you~ FifthWheel & Karl~!
Even if you're on an open network, or on no network at all,
Apache should start if it is properly configured (even with
no network, the loopback address 'localhost' is still available).
Thank you for the answer! This has been very confusing to me!
I still haven't been able to find out whether PHP 5.1.4 is compatible with Panther's Apache or not (couldn't even find which version of Apache Panther has...) But a guy from another Mac forum (www.oikos.com.tw) seems to be very certain that Entropy's PHP 5.x package is not compatible with Panther. I guess I will just take what he said. I've already sent my complaint to Sams Publishing.
I found "Building and Installing Apache 2.0.54 and PHP 5.0.4 on Mac OS X 10.3.8" on phpmac.com. But it seems quite risky for someone who does not have unix knowledge like me. So I guess what I should do is to find out how to remove the PHP 5.1.4 I installed and install PHP 4.x instead.
Still seeking for a solution... I guess I should start learning Unix too...

Personal Web Sharing - Don't have permission to access...

Hi,
I'm new here so I'm not sure the best place to post my question.
I posted the question below at the tail end of this discussion:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=663879&tstart=0
However, that thread is marked "answered" and my question isn't, so I am re-posting here. Please read the above thread so that you'll know what I already know and have done.
My question (if you haven't read it at the bottom of that thread):
I am trying to set up personal web sharing, I have followed all of the above discussion, including Port Forwarding from my router. (I had actually done all of this before searching here, getting instructions from "The Missing Manual: Panther Edition" book.)
The problem is: when I try to access my shared web pages, I get a "You don't have permission to access..." message.
I have changed permissions on all files in the (user)/Sites folder (the one I'm sharing) so that "Others" can "Read Only" but still I cannot access these pages from another computer via the internet. I can access them fine from my home computer.
I know everything is set up correctly and connecting because the remote browser correctly retrieves my computer name (where the shared files are) and port number. It just won't let me in.
Any help appreciated.
thanks,
Eric

braintrino,
I'm not sure how to make sense of your statements.
The situation with FileVault is conceptually simple. The contents of a FileVault user's home directory are on an encrypted disk image. When the user logs in from the login window, that image is mounted (using their home directory path as the mount point); when they log out, the image is unmounted. Note that logging in via ssh doesn't cause the system to mount their home directory...
So, when a user is logged in, Apache can (if normal UNIX permissions permit it) see their ~Sites folder and serve pages. When the user is logged out, Apache can't.
I suppose that a FileVault user might be able to get around this, if they don't mind leaving their ~Sites folder unencrypted... They could create a folder outside of their home directory (e.g., /Users/Shared/braintrinos_site/) and put their Web pages there; log into their account and replace their ~Sites folder with a symbolic link to their Web page directory; log out, then ssh in and add a symbolic link from their home directory to their Web page directory. Then, whether they're logged in or not, Apache should be able to see a symbolic link from ~Sites to the unencrypted Web page directory.

Help needed with Personal Web Sharing

I need a little help. My goal is to set up my Apache server to allow people on the Internet access web pages served from my Mac. But I can't seem to get it working.
Here's what I've done so far:
1. I have enabled Personal Web Sharing in System Preferences
2. I have talked with the technicians at my ISP, and they tell me that they are not blocking port 80
3. My router has DHCP enabled, but I have assigned my Mac a static IP address (192.168.1.xx) that is outside the range of DHCP addresses.
4. I am using a cable modem connected to a Linksys WRT54G router, and I have configured the WRT54G to forward port 80 to my Mac's IP address (192.168.1.xx).
5. I have determined my Internet IP address by using http://checkip.dyndns.org/
The result:
1. When I use Safari to access 192.168.1.xx from my Mac, I see my web pages perfectly. Life is good.
2. However, when I try to access my web pages from a browser on a WindowsXP computer on my local network, I just time out. I have tried both my LAN IP address (192.168.1.xx) and the Internet IP address I obtained from http://checkip.dyndns.org/
I have looked on the Apple support and discussion pages, but I haven't been able to find anything that will fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Charlie:
Thanks for the tip about the W3C HTML Markup Validation Service. Answers to your questions are in CAPS. And, thanks for any help you can provide.
===================
1. Can the Mac ping the Windows computer and vice versa? YES Are you sure the Mac is able to reach the Internet outside your LAN, can you browse the web from it? YES, I HAVE A WORKING, HIGH-SPEED CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET FROM MY MAC.
2. What happens if you use the WAN IP address in Safari on the Mac and try to load the web page? Does it still time out? YES. WHEN I PUT THE ADDRESS I RECEIVED FROM http://checkip.dyndns.org/ INTO THE URL FIELD IN SAFARI, IT TIMES OUT. WHEN I DO THE SAME THING USING USING THE LOCAL LAN IP ADDRESS OF MY MAC, IT WORKS PERFECTLY.
And a comment:
Even once you get the Windows computer to see the web site on the Mac via your LAN, it's possible you won't be able to use the WAN IP address to reach it. That's called "loopback", and some routers don't allow that. If that's the case, you can test your connection by using some other site to reach your site.
What I like to do in cases like this is to use the W3C HTML Markup Validation Service. Since it's completely outside your LAN, it acts like any regular browser to your site. If it can't reach your site, then no one can. But if it reaches your site and you still can't, then your router probably doesn't support loopback. Plus, it'll point out any mistakes in your HTML markup if you have any...

Personal Web Sharing Works on One Mac, Not on Other

I can't get Personal Web Sharing to work with my MacBook Pro. It does work with my iMac. Yes, I can turn it on just fine on the MacBook, by means of System Preferences->Sharing, but I can't successfully use the Personal Web http:// link I see there as a URL in my iMac's browser. When I try, it tells me it can't connect to the host, i.e., the MacBook. When I do the same in reverse, from my MacBook browser with my iMac as target (though the local IP address and the short-user-name are of course different), the connection works fine.
I don't think I'm using an incorrect local IP address to try to get to my MacBook. I've checked that. And I do have an index.html file in the appropriate Sites folder on each machine.
I'm using Mac OS Leopard 10.5.8 on both machines.
The problem also shows up on Safari on my iPhone. It can access Personal Web Sharing on the iMac but it can't on the MacBook.
I wonder if it's a Bonjour problem? I don't exactly know if Bonjour is running on the MacBook, or how to tell if it is, or how to activate it if it isn't running.
Or, if it's not Bonjour, what could it be?

Doug,
'sudo apachectl start' asked for my password and seemed to have no complaints after getting it. But it didn't tell me anything, and it didn't make a difference.
After checking out some FAQs at
http://httpd.apache.org/
I tried 'apachectl -k start' and got:
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
It made no difference whether Personal Web Sharing was on or off in System Preferences when I did that.
I do know that the Apache log file is apparently not there where apachectl expects it. I don't understand the other stuff it said, but it looks like maybe it was trying to use an IP address of 0.0.0.0 instead of 10.0.1.16.
10.0.1.16 is the local IP address of my MacBook.
I tried 'apachectl configtest' and got 'Syntax OK'.
I tried moving index.html to /Library/WebServer/Documents -- no help.
I tried creating a new configuration file in the way you said to try -- no help.
No matter what I try, I get:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 10.0.1.16.
I'm beginning to wonder if the Apache environment might not need to be reinstalled. But I'm not sure how. I'm running Leopard 10.5.8, but the original install disk I have is 10.5.1. Software Update moved me up from that to 10.5.8 over time. Your further thoughts and advice will be greatly appreciated ...
