- HTTP Server
- Proxy Server
- Mailserver
- Getting Started
HTTP Server
Bremsserver is a little http server designed for development and
testing. Some of the key features are:
- Full debug functionality on request and response headers.
- Slow down Bremsserver's response time to simulate slow network
connections.
- Add headers to avoid browser' s caching.
Bremsserver supports Apache like Serverside Includes (ssi), cgi and
embedded scripting languages like PHP.
Proxy Server
Beginning with version 2.2 a proxy server is included int
Bremsserver2. A proxiyserver might be useful if you'd like to debug
your webapplication not using Bremsserver2 as webserver, for exaple if
you are developing JSPs and Servlets (that are not supported by
Bremsserver2) or if you'd like to test a production system. The poxy
server is not yet well tested, so please do not relay on it.
Mailserver
Bremsserver now offers a simple mailserver for development purposes.
This server does not forward any mails but does just recieve and
display mails.
Getting Started
Bremsserver is a Java program and requires a Java virtual machine
version 1.4 or better. Supposed you have a suitable Java runtime
installed on your machine
- unpack the bremsserver.zip into a directory of your choice.
- On windows double click the bremsserver.jar
- On other systems open a console and type:
java -jar bremsserver.jar
- For Mac OS 9 or smaller there actually is no suitable virtual
machine. Please try Bremsserver 1.2.
Bremsserver starts and you see something like this:
Press the start button to start the server with the default setting.
Open your browser and type "localhost" into the address area. A
directory index of Bremsserver's installation directory should appear.
