1. Web servers for Windows?

I know a few web servers for windows was mentioned a while ago, but I have lost the links to these and am wondering what others use? I have used Abyss (http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/) in the past but was hoping for something that was just a simple .exe with a config file that I could use for development purposes. Lighttpd would be great, but does not seem to work on Windows.

Apache is more than you asked for, but with the installers available now you can set-up it in just a few minutes on Windows.

This may be less than you were looking for, but you did ask for simple.
Baby Web Server, a single 220K exe.

What actually would be nice is if someone wants to take the new demo/httpd.ex and make it support CGI 
It already supports basic file serving, directory listing and logging. Not much more is needed to be a basic web server for development... any takers? We'd then have a functional web server written in Euphoria. Not to compete with Apache or anything but just for simple CGI development purposes.

Xitami. Dead simple. Great for testing. www.xitami.com.
Though having checked it I see things have moved on since I downloaded it a while back - looks like its called x5 now, so I can't vouch for it anymore.

If you add to the http code in Euphoria, you'll be headed for arguements with CoBaJo. I wouldn't touch it, not even for my own private use. I don't use it.
I use XAMPP (apache and php) now.

I'm the one who wrote the httpd.ex server found in demo/ ... Just didn't have the time to make it a more full featured server. It's really just an example of using the new built in socket interface w/Euphoria 4.0 but it wouldn't take much to wrap things up into a bit more usable server.

Why would that happen?

Why don't you use it?

Why do you use this?

I found this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_lightweight_web_servers which has a huge list of light weight web servers (as the name implies). I'm looking for one that:
Required
- Small binary size
- Single binary (no additional files are wanted, except for 1 config file)
- Cross-platform (same OSes as Euphoria)
- CGI support
- Single file config (can be put in your projects SCM system)
Benefits
- FastCGI support
- SCGI support
That's all. Nothing more.

Oh, and some type of mod_rewrite capabilities.

You might want to look at nginx. Has FCGI, but no SCGI yet (I think).

You can try to do this in Euphoria if you need a small simple server . I put a example at http://members.home.nl/m.s.ter.haseborg/peu/MSERVER/ This is a window version what is a wrapper of the open() functions of PEU . PEU has a buildin open for server/client ports aswell for Linux/Windows (no Dos)
A other example is http://dotpups.de/menno/RSS/pserver.exw out of a articel about a RSS reader in PEU (see : http://dotpups.de/menno/RSS/uitleg.htm
