HFS ~ HTTP File Server / HFS3 on Windows 10

« on: June 06, 2022, 08:59:09 AM »

I am using HFS 3 on Windows 10; it works as expected.

I have a question. HFS is now run from PowerShell. I have the shortcut to start HFS with PowerShell minimised; this works.

Is there a way for the program to automatically minimised to the System Tray?

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / HFS3

« on: April 10, 2022, 12:12:21 AM »

I have used HFS2 for a long while. I am just trying out HFS3.  I just downloaded latest release 0.16  hfs.exe and running it on a Windows 10 PC.

I make some comments.

The  version of the software running is only available on the local page at Monitor. An "About" menu item might be helpful. By the way on the Monitor page the version is reported as "Version: 0.15.0
Build: 05/04/2022, 20:43:40" not 0.16?
The version of the software running is not available on the File Server page, even in the admin panel. It would be useful to have this.

I would like the option to have a computer/site name on the File Server page

Thanks

(Would it be useful to have a Forum folder dedicated to HFS3?)

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Server name

« on: March 08, 2022, 10:48:11 PM »

I am running HTTP File Server on three different computers. They all are running 2.4rc2 with no additions or changes.

I would like to have a server/computer identification on the web page. I have looked for a configuration item to identify the server/computer but cannot find it.

Is there an option to put in a server name or how can I do this within the program?

Thanks
Chris

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / "username not found"

« on: May 11, 2021, 12:47:48 AM »

I installed HFS2.4 RC06 on a new computer. I thought I have set it up as my other servers, but I get a problem. I have added real folders and set username/passwords to each folder.

When I try to access a folder  I am asked for the username and password. I enter the details and gat the message "username not found". I tried RC07 with the same result!

What have I done wrong???

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Access problems

« on: June 19, 2019, 10:46:43 AM »

I have 2 HFS servers on my home network. One HFS server is on my main PC. and one is setup on a backup PC.

The HFS on the backup PC is accessible from any internal computer , phone or any other browser, internal or external (via suitable port forwarding).

The HFS server on my main PC is ONLY accessible from a browser on this PC. I cannot access the HFS server from any other browser within or outside my home network. I have the appropriate port forwarding in place). I have the option "accept connections on any address".

Is this a problem with my HFS setup or something I have done with my computer?

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / HFS very slow response on some clients

« on: June 10, 2016, 01:36:37 AM »

Hi
I am using HFS 2.3h build 296 on a Windows 10 machine. I have one real folder with many file/folders. The top folder has about 990 files and there are about 20,000 files in folders/I am using the mobile-light template. When accessing the server via a web address on the same machine, the response is reasonably fast (say 4 seconds). On some other devices is can be very slow. On a smartphone (Motorola Razr M) it can take 4.5 minutes to paginate and display the final screen. The server CPU stays at about 20% the whole time.

What can I do to speed up the process?

Is the pagination done on the client browser, not on the server? If so can the pagination be done on the server or can I turn off pagination?

Any other suggestions welcome.
Chris

HTML & templates / Responsive small screen template

« on: June 04, 2016, 10:24:29 AM »

I am looking for a template that is responsive to screen size. I have tried many of the available ones and found Live template  was responsive but I do not like the output.

Is there a template that gives the layout  like the default BUT I would prefer the layout of the default template but with the User, Folder,  Search, Select,  Actions and Server information dialogs located below the file list.

How do I do this??
