Are there any portable web servers that automatically open the home page?

Submitted by pete101 on October 12, 2016 - 8:31am

Hi,

I was a big fan of "server2go", but alas I think that it might now be defunct.

The reason why I liked it was that you could set it to automatically open up a web server's home page (i.e. the index.html page found within the server's www folder) when it started.

Most other portable servers seem to either take you to a control panel or else simply start and do nothing else. You need to click on a further button to launch the default home page in your browser.

Error loading pidgin.dll under w2k3 after updating to 2.11.00

Submitted by DabjeilQutwyngo on October 5, 2016 - 8:36pm

Today I updated Pidgin Portable from 2.10.11 (libpurple 2.10.11) to 2.11.0. After that I get the following error while Pidgin starts up:
---------------------------
Error loading pidgin.dll.
Error: (999) Ошибка при выполнении операции со страницей.
---------------------------
The eror message means something like "An error at operating with a page". But I think the error is about memory access violation.
After this error the Pidgin process is closed.
OS: Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 x86

Chrome Bookmarks Removed after last update

Submitted by MyNameIs on October 5, 2016 - 2:26am

After this recent update Version 53.0.2785.143, Bookmarks are removed.

Edit: It would seem the "GoogleChromePortable\GoogleChromePortable.exe" opens in a different view to opening "GoogleChromePortable\App\Chrome-bin\chrome.exe" directly. My shortcuts I have created differ from opening within the PA app.

PortableChrome crashing

Submitted by milkmotel on September 29, 2016 - 5:44pm

I'm trying to run an HTML page locally hosted (it's an Shiny R-script run through R-portable) but whenever I try to run it on a network computer that isn't my own, I just get a crashed page.

In fact, when I open Chrome Portable on any network computer, all it shows me is that "Aw shucks it stopped working" page.

Anyone know what the problem is?
