Manage internal server
When the internal web server is running, the QuiFaber icon appears on Windows
taskbar, in particular, on notification area, as shown in the picture below:
Right click on that icon and will shown a drop down menu:
· Properties: it shows the server configuration window.
· Start : it starts the server, if previously it was suspended.
· Suspend : it suspends the "HTTPd service" (that usually it listens on port 3311),
but the server is still running. In this server state, the quiz results can not be
collected from server and saved on a file.
· Quiz results : it opens the default browser with a search form.
· Exit : quits (the shutting down of) the server.
The server configuration window can also opened doing a double clicking with left
mouse button, on QuizFaber icon. In both cases, a dialog window will appear, as
shown in the figure below:
The "Start" button and the "Suspend" button have the same functions explained
about the drop-down menu items. The option "Always starts service when Windows
starts" is useful for always keep running the QuizFaber web server when the system
is started.
The push-button
opens the default browser with a search results form. The push-button
allows to manually editing the server configuration file, it is
quite technical (there are also some lines of explanation for each parameter), but
usually it should not be changed (and only a Windows user with administrative
privileges can modify it). The push-button
opens the log file (the trace of main events that happen on
server, included error messages). The push-button
shows these help pages.
