运行安装、阅读源码了解原理。

step1：安装运行

环境linux Ubunu16.04
安装解压后内容如下：

image.png

1）修改makefile

all: httpd

httpd: httpd.c
    gcc -W -Wall   -o httpd httpd.c -lpthread

clean:
    rm httpd

2）修改httpd.c原文件

/* J. David's webserver */
/* This is a simple webserver.
 * Created November 1999 by J. David Blackstone.
 * CSE 4344 (Network concepts), Prof. Zeigler
 * University of Texas at Arlington
 */
/* This program compiles for Sparc Solaris 2.6.
 * To compile for Linux:
 *  1) Comment out the #include <pthread.h> line.
 *  2) Comment out the line that defines the variable newthread.
 *  3) Comment out the two lines that run pthread_create().
 *  4) Uncomment the line that runs accept_request().
 *  5) Remove -lsocket from the Makefile.

3) 修改cgi perl脚本路径：

4）更改index.html访问权限

sudo chmod -R 600 tinyhttpd-0.1.0/htdocs/index.html

5) make运行

6) 浏览器访问

step2: 原理总结

流程分析：
main->startup（Bind开启server服务）->accept_request(创建子线程响应请求)->execute_cgi(fork子进程解析cgi脚本返回html内容)

CGI:人们起初设计web的初衷是查看静态内容，CGI就是能让浏览器与html进行交互的公共接口。
