DWS WebServer Server options

Server options

RelativeURI
Relative URI for the HTTP server port, empty by default.
This specifies the relative URI, or URI root for the HTTP port, this features allows multiple application servers to operate on the same port.

SSLPort
HTTPS server port, 0 by default (not opened).
You'll need to have a valid certificate registered or this will fail. See [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733791.aspx Configure a Port with an SSL Certificate], or you can use a GUI like [http://httpsysmanager.codeplex.com/ HTTPSysManager]. If you don't have a certificate, you can use a self-signed certificate (will result in browser warnings), buy one, or get a free one from [https://www.startssl.com/ StartCom].

SSLRelativeURI
Relative URI for the HTTPS server port, empty by default.
This specifies the relative URI, or URI root for the HTTPS port, this features allows multiple application servers to operate on the same port.

WWWPath
Base path for served files.
If not defined or empty, will serve a www subfolder of the folder where the executable is.
This path can be referred to in the other paths options as "%www%".

Compression
Indicates if HTTP compression is supported by the server, True is the default value. HTTP Compression will reduce bandwidth at the expense of server CPU usage.

Authentication
Array of enabled authentication schemes, allowed values are "Basic", "Digest", "NTLM", "Negotiate" and "`*`" for all.
When enabled, pages can check authentication through WebRequest.Authentication and AuthenticatedUser properties, and can request authentication with WebResponse.RequestAuthentication method.

WorkerThreads
Number of worker threads to use, 16 by default.
Note that this number is not the number of simultaneous connections, but the number of script threads that can run at the same time. Optimal values will depend on your workload. High values will not be effective unless you have a high CPU core count or your scripts are "spending" most of their time waiting for I/O.

LogDirectory
Directory for log files ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCSA_log_formats Common log format]).
If empty, logs are not active.

MaxConnections
Maximum number of simultaneous connections, infinite by default.
Zero is understood as infinite.

MaxBandwidth
Maximum bandwidth in bytes per second, infinite by default.
You can use this to limit the maximum outgoing bandwidth of your server.
Zero is understood as infinite.

MaxInputLength
Maximum input http request length in bytes, 10 megabytes by default.
Requests that go over this limit will be canceled. You can use this to limit the incoming bandwidth of your server as well as minimize memory usage in case of malformed requests or very huge requests.
Zero is understood as 10 MBytes.

AutoRedirectFolders
If true (default value) folder requests that don't include the trailing path delimiter will automatically be redirected to the same URL with a trailing path delimiter via a 301 error.
