ELECTIVE LAB:III
ASSIGNMENT NO. 8
Problem Statement:
Install, configure APACHE server and deployed an application on Raspberry Pi/Beagle
board.Write client applications to get services from the server application.
Hardware Requirements:
Raspberry-pi
Software Requirements:
Rasbian operating system
Objectives:
To learn apache server configuration on Raspberry Pi.
Theory:
Setting up an Apache Web Server on a Raspberry Pi
Apache is a popular web server application you can install on the Raspberry Pi to
allow it to serve web pages.
On its own, Apache can serve HTML files over HTTP, and with additional
modules can serve dynamic web pages using scripting languages such as PHP.
Install Apache
First, update the available packages by typing the following command into the
Terminal:

ELECTIVE LAB:III
sudo apt-get update
Then, install the apache2 package with this command:
sudo apt-get install apache2 -y
Test the web server
By default, Apache puts a test HTML file in the web folder. This default web page
is served when you browse to http://localhost/ on the Pi itself,
or http://192.168.1.10 (whatever the Pi's IP address is) from another computer on
the network. To find the Pi's IP address, type hostname -I at the command line (or
read more about finding your IP address).
Browse to the default web page either on the Pi or from another computer on the
network and you should see the following:

ELECTIVE LAB:III
This means you have Apache working!
Changing the default web page
This default web page is just an HTML file on the filesystem. It is located
at /var/www/html/index.html.
Navigate to this directory in a terminal window and have a look at what's inside:
cd /var/www/html
ls -al

ELECTIVE LAB:III
This will show you:
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 8 01:29 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 4096 Jan 8 01:28 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 177 Jan 8 01:29 index.html
This shows that by default there is one file in /var/www/html/ called index.htmland it is owned
by the root user (as is the enclosing folder). In order to edit the file, you need to change its
ownership to your own username. Change the owner of the file (the default pi user is assumed
here) using sudo chown pi: index.html.
You can now try editing this file and then refreshing the browser to see the web page change.
Your own website
If you know HTML you can put your own HTML files and other assets in this directory and
serve them as a website on your local network.
Socket :
Sockets are the endpoints of a bidirectional communications channel.
• Sockets may communicate within a process, between processes on the same machine, or
between processes on different continents.
• Sockets may be implemented over a number of different channel types: Unix domain sockets,
TCP, UDP, and so on.
• The socket library provides specific classes for handling the common transports as well as a
generic interface for handling the rest.
To create a socket, you must use the socket.socket()
function in socket module, which has the general

ELECTIVE LAB:III
syntax:
s = socket.socket (socket_family, socket_type, protocol=0)
socket_family: This is either AF_UNIX or AF_INET.
socket_type: This is either SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM.
protocol: This is usually left out, defaulting to 0.
• Once you have socket object, then you can use required functions to create your client or server
program. Socket MTo create a socket, you must use the socket.socket() function in socket
module, which has the general
syntax:
s = socket.socket (socket_family, socket_type, protocol=0)
socket_family: This is either AF_UNIX or AF_INET.
socket_type: This is either SOCK_STREAM or
SOCK_DGRAM.
protocol: This is usually left out, defaulting to 0.
• Once you have socket object, then you can use required functions to create your client or server
program module.
Server Socket Methods :
 s.bind() This method binds address (hostname, port number pair) to socket.
 s.listen() This method sets up and start TCP listener.
 s.accept() This passively accept TCP client connection, waiting until connection
arrives (blocking).
 s.connect() This method actively initiates TCP server connection.

ELECTIVE LAB:III
 s.recv() This method receives TCP message

 s.send() This method transmits TCP message
 s.recvfrom() This method receives UDP message
 s.sendto() This method transmits UDP message
 s.close() This method closes socket
 socket.gethostname() Returns the hostname.
How the communication is taken place?
