Hi Nick,

If you want to use the BaseX HTTP Server with Ubuntu, you should install our own full distributions [1,2].

Best, Christian

I don't quite understand what it means for Jetty to be "embedded" in or with BaseX, but presumably there's a configuration?

I see:

DEBUG = false DBPATH = /home/nicholas/basex/data LOGPATH = .logs REPOPATH = /home/nicholas/basex/repo LANG = English LANGKEYS = false FAIRLOCK = false CACHETIMEOUT = 3600

# Client/Server Architecture HOST = localhost PORT = 1984 SERVERPORT = 1984 USER = PASSWORD = SERVERHOST = PROXYHOST = PROXYPORT = 0 NONPROXYHOSTS = IGNORECERT = false IGNOREHOSTNAME = false TIMEOUT = 30 KEEPALIVE = 600 PARALLEL = 8 LOG = true LOGMSGMAXLEN = 1000

# HTTP Services WEBPATH = /home/nicholas/basex/webapp RESTPATH = RESTXQPATH = PARSERESTXQ = 3 HTTPLOCAL = false STOPPORT = 8985 AUTHMETHOD = Basic

but there's nothing actually at WEBPATH, no directory. Perhaps RESTXQPATH requires configuration? Really, just guessing. See also:

If I installed BaseX with apt, should it also pull in Jetty, then?

thanks,

Nick
