How to setup a Webserver with aMule2.0.0rc1 and later:

When you installed your aMule via deb package or rpm, the webserver source is not included. Please visit www.amule.org and download the tar.gz package for your aMule version.

Untar it and copy from the src folder:

-aMule.tmpl

-and the webserver folder

into your /home/usr_running_aMule/.aMule/ directory.

SETUP

1) shutdown your aMule if it is still running

2) edit your .eMule file:

-locate the "[ExternalConnect]" section and change:

AcceptExternalConnections=1 <-- to enable amule listening for external connections

ECUseTCPPort=1 <-- the use the tcp port! very importand since unix sockets are disabled

3) restart aMule

4) go to your aMule preferences and the tab "remote connection":

-enable your webserver

-also setup your passwords here for external connection and webserver login

-when you change your ports for webserver and external connections here make sure to restart aMule!!

5) after you are done, save your settings, go to console and type

-amuleweb

  type in your password. THis will startup your aMule webserver. If you changed your external connection port to something else start amuleweb with 

-amuleweb -p new_port

  at the end it should look something like this: 

Web Server: Started amuleweb$ WSThread: Thread started WSThread: created service WSThread: created socket listening on :4711

6) to make sure it is working use your favorite browser:

-http://localhost:4711

  this is the default port of your aMuleweb. If you connect to 4712 this will not work since this is the external connections port, connection here will result in error messages from aMule.
