Has anyone tried to make a "USB Webserver" a portableapps application?
I found it on http://www.portablefreeware.com and it can be downloaded from http://www.usbwebserver.com
AIUI, this has a full Apache WWW server and MySQL, which serves my purposes fantasticly!
I write WWW applications for a living, and it would be really neat if I was able to take them on a USB stick to client sites, put it in and show off development - without having to rely on an internet connection. Obviously flat files can be shown without a problem (just load them up in a browser), but CGI scripts are more of a problem without a server!
I could use the setup they offer, but would prefer to be able to launch it from the portableapps.com launcher as this would look a whole lot better - it would be easier for my clients to understand if it was started from a generic application launcher, rather than some special, mystical, "server starter" launcher.
i.e. If I was using a launcher which also had things like firefox and thunderbird, and a few games shown on it, that would make the server software less "threatening", and more just just some application you run to make the server run.
