can wap and web be in the same apache server ( virtual server) listening to different port?


<Virtual DOmain name>
listen port 80
192.168.1.10:80

</Virtual server>

<Virtual DOmain name>

192.168.1.10:3010

listen port 3010


</Virtual server>

But you need to check the Apache documentation for syntax. There is also a tutorial here on devshed on how to setup virtual hosts.

I think I will try putting wap and web together in one physical server and same apache.

I know there is need to add the "mime type" because of the

wml.


I wish to everyone someone try this. I myself not too sure whether it will work or not.I have experienced with wap and web in separate server.

Hi, I've experimented with wml and html on the same server, you have just to add the correct MIME types and you can access the pages from a wireless device.
Just connect to a wap gateway (tipically the one of your telephone company) with a mobile phone and request the page.
There is a good tutorial on phpbuilder.
For simulation purpose notice that the wap browser at gelon.net does not post the forms!
Hope this helps!

I have the linux 6.0 rh with 10 mps NIC and I have not set up a wap gateway.

I have a few time libxml problem, I dropped the whole things.

any idea on this wap gateway. I have check out what is parameter in the configuration, what and where to connect to and password ...etc. I actually do not have wap phone. I always use stimulator to show client and my friends. I am struck with wap gateway.

I used to have paint shop pro 5.0 for conversion with plug-in and I can convert bmp to wbmp. But after I upgraded to PSP 6.0 then I cannot do any conversion now! any suggestion on this???? I need to do conversion fron bmp to wbmp. I do not wish to turn back to PSP 5.0. I tried a couple coversion from the internet and none of them really work at all.



I have installed with raptor 3.0 and stimulator from phone.com.


In the meantime, I am doing php program where I only read from book for about a few and posting silly questions.

But actually you don't need your own gateway! When setting up your wap phone one of the settings is the gateway of the provider!
Example:
http://eureka.inwind.it/procconfigura_nokia6210.html
The ip address is the gateway and the tel number is the RAS.

An opensource wap gateway can be found at www.kannel.org.

Every other text such as wrox that I need to have wap gateway and clear shown the diagram of wap content server ( which is actually an apache server).

Please tell me about this and more discussion on wap gateway and successful implementation????

I have made it listen to a second port e.g. 8070 in RH 7.0, and I have added the AddType .....wml.....etc and the "index.wml" in index directoy.

I have content type error. any one know what is wrong????

Latest devleopment : I got this 3 hrs later.

web is ok while wap is content type error when I used phone.com stimulator.

I appreciated.

would someone who has experience with wap gateway on rh 7.0 guild us:
1. whether there is need to have wap gateway and why not??
( my wap and web are 24 x 7 now on -line)

jennifer

Hi, actually the communication goes this way:
From your phone you access the wap service (actually you call a remote access server, the number in the phone set up) and communicate via wap protocol to the gateway (the ip address in the phone set up) wich communicates via http to the web server which hosts the pages (so there is no need of different ports, I believe).
What you readed in Wrox is true, but is just overkill, if you are not a service provider.
Hope this helps

are you saying that we have a wap content server with port 3210 with 24 x7.

a wap phone calls an ISP who has remote access to comnunicate of my http server through wap protocol while people who has a phone via the isp 's way gateway can access my wap server.




my wap server ( 100 mbps - 650 mhz cpu has many pages ( 15 -20 pages and demonstration of wbmp..etc)

In simple words, if some one has wap phone, he /she can actually
access my wml globally no matter where he/she !!!!!!!!!!!!

all text, all internet diagram say there is need for wap gateway.


confused with wap gateway
jennifer


btw:

I have a portal, am I a service provider???

Well,
1. Tiscali or Omnitel are service provider, if you have a RAS you are a service provider, if you provide the phone number to call to connect to internet you are a service provider (more or less).
2. A gateway is needed, but is put in place by the service provider, and not by you.
3. If you can access your pages by an online simulator (ex. gelon.net or other), anybody else should be able to do the same.

Capito mi hai?
