Using your iDevice as a perfect webserver - Aces - 12-28-2013

In this tutorial I will cover how to use you iDevice as a Webserver that have database handling, and can redirect pages. Here we go.

1.) The first thing we need to have is lighttpd, this is a web server that can be used for your iDevice and is accessable from Cydia. You would wanna install that now.

2.) Once you got that installed you would wanna install the following things: mysql, php, iFile.

3.) Now you wanna go and download PHPMyAdmin Once you do that extract it to /var/www/phpmyadmin

4.) Now you wanna login via SSH/Mobile Terminal and execute "mysql". Now you wanna execute the following

Code:
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('yourpassword') WHERE User='root';

Code:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

5.) Now you successfully installed PHPMyAdmin! Go on and visit http://localhost/phpmyadmin or http://*Your iDevice IP address*/phpmyadmin

Screenshot of my setup

Spoiler:

6.)

For the redirection, header won't work. There for use

Code:
echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="0; URL=example.php">';
exit;

That's all, I hope somebody found this useful. Smile

I just found this tutorial on another found I'm active on. Thought I'd share it on here.

I know that an untethered ios7 jailbreak was released but I read that the Cydia on it is unstable and that's why I don't want to jailbreak : p
