Find or Change web server root directory in rt target

[lenin_7]

Hello, I'm currently following the NI Tutorial to setup a Remote Panel on RT Target, I managed to set up just as the tutorial indicates but when I'm trying to access the VI I can´t find it.

Here is my configuration:

The IP address of cRio is : 192.168.0.250

Remote Panel Port: 8000

System Web Server Port: 80

The vi configured as startup is: HydraLog500_3.vi

I created html file using Web Publishing Tool. The file is: maletines.html

I created a destination path called: "www" located in:  /c/ni-rt/system/www

The result is the following:

When I access: http://192.168.0.250 it displays config screen ok.

When I access: http://192.168.0.250:8000/  The labview web server tutorial is displayed

When I try to access my html file as: http://192.168.0.250:8000/maletines.html

It does not show anything.

Does anyone know anything I can do to fix this? Next there are some images of my configuration:

As you can see there is no Web Server Path to configure...

Thank you in advance.

Your snapshot of the webserver publishing tool shows the local directory to save webpage as a directory on the PC folder system. I believe this html file should be saved on the rt target just like the other VIs.

The Configuring Remote Front Panels on a Real-Time Target document that was linked says "Change the Destination path to c:\ni-rt\system\www on a PharLap or VxWorks Target or /var/local/natinst/labview/www on a Linux RT target"

If you are using Linux RT you should try placing the html file in the /var/local/natinst/labview/www directory instead. Maybe that will do the trick!

Hello MilanR, thank you for your answer, that´s right. the error was that my cRio is Linux based and I was using Windows path to locate the html file on the RT Target.

Best Regards.

The published directory works fine when deployed, but if you try to copy it from the host to the target it causes a 500 error. (access denied type error)

How do I avoid this error?

Hello,

I know it's an old post. But I wanna give a shot, did you solve the 500 error? Currently I have same issue, when I am trying to add the .html file to www destination

Thanks for asking,

when i went to a Linux target from PharLap I  had this problem. When i went to the  " /var/local/natinst/LabVIEW/www" directory i found that I didn't have permissions to write into it or to change the html files that were already there after being deployed by the build spec.

So, the first thing i did was to get Putty from software express and then use it to log onto the target, which in my case is a sbRIO-9607.  I then changed the permissions on the www directory itself  to from 644 to 664 (rwx,rwx,rwx) (Owner,Group,Others).  This worked, but a better way is to add a  symbolic link to the /C directory "ln -s /var/local/natinst/LabVIEW/www"      /c/www".  /C/www is the directory to write into.

I also changed permissions of the NI html files in the www directory.  "chmod 771 *.html" (rwx, rwx, x)

I believe adding the link is the right thing to do.
