1. World Wide Web WeeSan Lee http://www.cs.ucr.edu/~weesan/cs183/

2. Roadmap Introduction HTTP URL HTML CGI Apache Server Installation Squid Cache Server Q&A

3. Introduction Invented by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989/1990 Client-server architecture Servers  Apache, Netscape Enterprise Server, MS IIS, etc Clients  GUI Mosaic, Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Konqueror, Epiphany, IE, Safari, etc  Text Link, wget, emacs, telnet, etc

4. HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol Listen on port 80 or http (/etc/services)  $ grep " 80/tcp" /etc/services http80/tcp www RFC2068 defines HTTP/1.0 RFC2616 defines HTTP/1.1 Built on top of TCP

5. HTTP (cont) $ telnet www.cs.ucr.edu 80 Trying 138.23.169.15... Connected to www.cs.ucr.edu. Escape character is '^]'. GET / HTTP/1.0 HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2007 20:47:38 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) Last-Modified: Mon, 16 Jul 2007 20:08:44 GMT ETag: "889f0f-d5-71bab00" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 213 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 …

6. URL Uniform Resource Locator Eg.  http://www.cs.ucr.edu:80/~weesan/index.html http://www.cs.ucr.edu:80/~weesan/index.html  http – protocol/application  www.cs.ucr.edu – hostname www.cs.ucr.edu  80 – port  ~weesan/ - directory  Index.html - filename

7. URL (cont) Other protocols  file file://etc/passwd  ftp ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-12.0/  https https://www.cs.ucr.edu/  mailto mailto:weesan@cs.ucr.edu

8. HTML Hypertext Markup Language Eg.  A sample HTML  Me

9. CGI Common Gateway Interface A way to communicate with external programs and generate pages dynamically Example of external scripts/programs:  Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, Bash, C/C++, Cobol, etc Servers support plugins for performance, eg.  libphp4.so  libphp5.so  libperl.so

10. Apache Server Installation http://www.apache.org/ $ yum install httpd Files are distributed all over the places  /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf  /usr/sbin/httpd  /usr/sbin/apachectl  /var/www/html/  /var/www/cgi-bin/  /var/log/httpd/access_log  /var/log/httpd/error_log

11. Apache Server Installation (cont) To start the httpd server  $ /etc/init.d/httpd start To restart the httpd server  $ /etc/init.d/httpd restart To stop the httpd server  $ /etc/init.d/httpd stop To start the httpd server on reboot  $ chkconfig --level 2345 httpd on

12. Squid Cache Server http://www.squid-cache.org/ A free version spawned from Harvest Cache Project from USC, which became NetCache, and 8 months later, it was acquired by NetApp Caches objects locally  Saves bandwidth  Reduces latency Fast, not process forking for new connections Supports Hierarchy Caching Listen on port 3128

13. Squid Cache Server (cont) $ telnet cache.cs.ucr.edu 3128 Trying cache.cs.ucr.edu... Connected to cache.cs.ucr.edu. Escape character is '^]'. GET http://www.cs.ucr.edu/~weesan/cs183/login.php HTTP/1.0 Host: www.cs.ucr.edu HTTP/1.0 200 OK Date: Thu, 08 May 2008 07:11:19 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) X-Powered-By: PHP/5.1.6 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 X-Cache: MISS from cache.cs.ucr.edu Via: 1.0 cache.cs.ucr.edu:3128 (squid/2.6.STABLE14) Proxy-Connection: close …

14. Squid Cache Server (cont).com.edu.net GET http://www.cs.ucr.edu HTTP/1.0http://www.cs.ucr.edu

15. Squid Cache Server (cont) Accelerator Mode  Reverse Proxy  To make web server faster for static pages Transparent Caching  Uses iptables  Configuration-free from clients

16. Squid Cache Server (cont) To create swap directories  $ squid –z  Run only once!!! To run Squid Cache Server  $ RunCache To reload the configuration  $ squid -k reconfiguration To rotate the log files  $ squid -k rotate
