Running a Server on Windows Mobile
For HTML & ASP via IIS:
- Install httpd web server component. This is not necessary on PocketPC2003 Emulator as a web server supporting ASP (VBScript & Javascript) is already built-in.
This is a web server supporting HTML and ASP written in JavaScript (but not VBScript!)
In WM2003, Microsoft used to provide a tool called SQL Dashboard which contains a mini HTTP&SQL server for PocketPC. This is no longer supported nor downloadable from Microsoft Website.
- For support for ASP written in VBScript, install the Vbscript component downloaded from http://www.nsbasic.com/ce/support/downloads.html
- Reboot the device, start the server via HTTPD, create a simple ASP page and test.
For classic ASP via 3rd party component:
- Install PocketASP downloadable from www.modezero.net/PocketASP/.
- Webpage will be accessible via a new protocol pasp://ModeZero/
For PHP:
- Install PocketHPH (“HPH”, no mispelling!), D:SoftwareMobileWMAdvancedPocketHPH.CAB, downloadable from http://mobileleap.net/hph/
Other Servers
- Mocha FTP server (not available for Smartphone).
