Welcome.

The best advice is, ( shall I repeat again and again?)

You should move to Linux PC, try out uClinux-dist as in Nios wiki.

There is a working generic cgi example in uClinux-dist.

It is totally wrong to develop Linux on a Windows machine.

I believe you will need to move to Linux PC, sooner or later.

Thanks for the feedback.

I understand moving to a Linux PC sounds like a good idea.

However out here in the real world thats not always an option.

So theres no need for you to continue repeating yourself.

Anyway I&#39;m back trying to get this project to compile.

I may try the LED version for the dev boards.

Thanks,

Richard

You can run Linux parallel on Windows with vmwares vmplayer or install co-linux or the other way "xenify" linux to run windows parallel on linux or ....

you do not need a second workstation... but if you have another workstation, vnc is a nice option.

Hello,

I need some help on boa. On the uClinux-dist, I included boa in make menuconfg, then I did

make romfs

make

make linux

make image

I can see /home/httpd and files inside it.

When I start boa, and use a browser to point to it, it doesn&#39;t seem to display anything.

Please help.

My uClinux is

/home/httpd> cat /proc/version

Linux version 2.6.17-uc1 (uclinux@colinux) (gcc version 3.4.6)# 46 PREEMPT Wed Nov 15 06:59:46 EST 2006

Hi,

What did you type in the browser ?

Regards.

It should work with default uClinux-dist nios2 config. You need only to enable your ether driver.

I have tested with both firefox browser and IE.

check,

1. ifconfig, can you see your eth0 dev ? can you ping to/from your pc?

2. netstat -a , can you see http service ?

3. wget http://localhost/index.html (http://localhost/index.html) , try connect from local

Hi hippo,

Checked that my http service is NOT on. I shall turn it on. Thanks for pointing out.

Hi,

I started http service by

boa -c /home/httpd

but, the browser doesn&#39;t display the page

However, when I use

telnet 192.168.1.239 80

GET /index_old.html HTTP/1.1(enter)

Host: 192.168.1.239(enter)

(enter)

I get the following:

If you are seeing this page, then your web server is working, and now

you need to create some nice pages to replace this one :-).

If everything has built correctly then the

Please start it over,

make clean

make menuconfig

Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection-->

[*] Default all settings (lose changes)

Then build through the image, without touching anyother config.

Then boot nios2, start boa with "boa &", and run the wget test (on nios2 , not your pc).
