=== Previous notes ===

If you installed [[aMule]] via [http://www.debian.org deb] or [http://www.rpm.org RPM] package, the [[aMuleWeb|webserver]] source is not included.
Since some few files are needed from the sources to set-up [[aMuleWeb|amuleweb]], please visit http://www.amule.org and download the amule tar.gz package for your packaged [[aMule]] version.

== Set a [[aMuleWeb|Webserver]] with [[aMule]] ==

[[Webserver-1.2.x|Webserver with aMule 1.2.8 or earlier]]

=== Webserver with [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rc1 or later ===

*[http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/tar.html Untar] the sources and copy '''''src/aMule.tmpl''''' and '''''src/webserver/''''' into your '''''~/.aMule/''''' directory. The following (run from the sources directory), should do so:
:''cp -r src/aMule.tmpl src/webserver/ ~/.aMule/''

*Go to "Preferences"->"Remote Controls" (in [[aMule]]) and...
**Enable "Accept External Connections".
**Enable "Use TCP ports instead of unix local sockets".

::'''NOTE:''' On some early [[aMule]] 2.0.0-rcX versions the above two options weren't available (or didn't work). If you are using such [[aMule]] version and you don't wish to upgrade, then do the following:

::Shutdown [[aMule]] if it is still running.
::Edit your ''~/.eMule'' file, locate the ''[ExternalConnect]'' section and change:
:::''AcceptExternalConnections=1'' <-- To enable [[aMule]] listening for [[External Connections]].
:::''ECUseTCPPort=1'' <-- To use the [http://www.faqs.org/faqs/internet/tcp-ip/resource-list TCP] port. Very important since [http://www.unix.org Unix] sockets are disabled.

*Restart [[aMule]]

*Go to your "Preferences"->"Remote Controls" (in [[aMule]]) and setup your passwords here for [[External Connections]] and [[aMuleWeb|webserver]] login.
::'''NOTE:''' When you change your [[aMuleWeb|webserver]] and [[External Connections]] ports here, make sure to restart [[aMule]].
::'''NOTE:''' that ''"Enable [[aMuleWeb|Webserver]]"'' has no effect and will be renamed in 2.0.0rc8. [[aMuleWeb|Webserver]] is always enabled as long as you have [[External Connections]] enabled.
::'''NOTE:''' For users running [[aMuled|aMule Daemon]] you have to edit the ''.eMule'' file like shown above. For a way to setup a password check the [[Webserver-1.2.x|1.2.8 aMule HowTo]]. You can still do it in the same way.

*Now you're done! You are ready to run [[aMuleWeb|amuleweb]] and connect to it.

'''[[User:Stefanero|Stefanero]]'''

== Connecting to [[aMuleWeb|amuleweb]] ==

To run [[aMuleWeb]] run '''''amuleweb''''' on a terminal. For more information about running [[aMuleWeb]] check the [[aMuleWeb|aMuleWeb document]].

Once [[aMuleWeb]] is running, open a web browser and connect to:

''http://host:port''

where ''host'' stands for your host's name (try with ''localhost'') and port stands for the [[aMuleWeb]] port ('''NOT''' the [[External Connections]] port).

For example: ''http://localhost:4711''

== Standard ports ==

The ports can be set to anything, but this are the most used (the standard ones):

*[[External Connections]]: 4712
*[[aMuleWeb|amuleweb]]: 4711

Make sure you do not confuse with what each of them is.

== Where to report problems and questions? ==
