Mars Server is a lightweight HTTP server written in Java. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps of installing Mars Server on Fedora Server Latest.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
Open your terminal window and go to the directory where you want to download Mars Server. Use the following command to download Mars Server:
git clone https://github.com/borjapazr/mars-server.git
This will download the latest version of Mars Server to your local directory.
Go to the Mars Server directory using the following command:
cd mars-server
Then, run the following command to build Mars Server:
./gradlew build
This will build the Mars Server and create a mars-server.jar file in the build/libs directory.
To run Mars Server, use the following command:
java -jar build/libs/mars-server.jar
This will start the Mars Server, and it will listen on port 8080 by default. You can access the server by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080.
Mars Server comes with a configuration file called application.properties that you can use to configure the server. You can create this file in the Mars Server directory and add the following lines to it:
server.port=8080
server.contextPath=/
server.servlet.context-path=/
These lines configure the server to listen on port 8080, set the context path to /, and set the servlet context path to /.
Restart Mars Server using the following command:
java -jar build/libs/mars-server.jar
The changes you made to the configuration file should now be applied.
In this tutorial, we showed you how to install Mars Server on Fedora Server Latest. You learned how to download Mars Server, build it, run it, and configure it. With Mars Server up and running, you can now start building your own web applications.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
