Thats superb, you can essentially take a portable web server anywhere! Or if you were a chef could have a mysql databse of recipes and carry them around in your pocket!

I wish there was a light weight MySQL for the iPhone. (I haven’t looked lately) It would definitely open the door for a really cool apps. I believe SQLite is already on the phone, but that’s a big learning curve for those of us who are most used to MySQL. Of course you can just simply write a remote app to access it via EDGE or WiFi.

I have written a small online iPhone app for Real Estate Agents/Brokers that I’m tweaking for public use.

Hi
I tried to install Apache and PHP on my iPhone using installer/app but they were not there.
I knew they were supposed to be in network and development but I didn’t find them. Any idea?

You can Google around about activating it without service, then you only need to JailBreak it (again Google), and install the Apache web server using the installer.app … As stated above, it is good to install the SSH Daemon on it to configure it.

How do I make my iphone without cell service into a wifi web server?

I installed SSHD onto my phone and SSHed into it and followed instructions posted on other websites…

There is a little configuration that has to be done to get Apache and PHP working together nicely…

Sorry I can’t be of more help, but it’s been a while since I did this and since then I’ve upgraded to 1.1.4 and am no longer jailbroken.

Good luck.

I am trying to set up PHP and Apache on my Ipod Touch. I have the apache working, but I do not know where to set up the PHP. I get a “Method not allowed” error when I submit a form through POST to a PHP page.

I don’t think MySQL has been ported yet, although It would be nice…
