run PYTHON (no-script) to provide a CGI supported HTTP Server

want HTTP Server with CGI Support, just need PYTHON without any scripts

so to have CGI supported HTTP server, just by using PYTHON, you need to follow below steps

Step#1. 
opening shell/command-prompt

Step#2.
$>cd (change dir) to directory you want to be root of your server

Step#4.
create a directory name 'cgi-bin' or 'htbin', say "mkdir cgi-bin"

Step#5.
copy all your CGI-scripts to this newly created 'cgi-bin' directory


Step#6. 
now if anyhow you changed your directory, change it back to Parent Dir of created dir 'cgi-bin'

Step#7. 
now run this command without quotes 
"python -m CGIHTTPServer"

Finally, [ Say yyippppeeeee... ] Thanks...

now you have a CGI supported Simple HTTP Server running, that can be accessed at Port 8000 of your Server's IP/Name

so you can test it by browsing in any web browser at http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:8000/
and like if you copied any script 'time' to cgi-bin then its accessible at http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:8000/cgi-bin/time

is( PYTHON installed ){ Yes: you have a simple HTTP server }

is Python installed, you already have Simple HTTP Server

if you need any simple plain web-server on your machine to server files (html or else)
and
if you have PYTHON installed over your machine
then
you don't need anything else
because
you can run PYTHON itself in Simple HTTP Server mode to serve files from any directory you need
by
following below steps
Step#1.
[ opening shell/command-prompt ]
Step#2.
[ $>cd (change dir) to directory you want to be root of your server ]
Step#3.
[ run this command without quotes "python -m SimpleHTTPServer" ]
Finally, [ Say abra-ca-dabra... ] Thanks...
now
you have a Simple HTTP Server running, that can be accessed at Port 8000 of your Server's IP/Name
so
you can test it by browsing in any web browser at http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:8000/

Easily Set Up a WebServer with a StandAlone Executable JAR

To set up a WebServer on your machine, a very easy way would be to use 'ABK SiteHoster', a project currently in its beta stage... just a standalone executable JAR... no complex configuration required...

demo @ Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CogPa646vi8

Using:
[Step#1]
Download JAR file from any of the two locations below

Sourceforge Link : http://sourceforge.net/projects/sitehoster/ 

Google Code Link : http://code.google.com/p/sitehoster/

say you downloaded a file named "http09_v0.5beta.jar"

[Step#2]
Copy your WebSite (currently no Server Side Scripting supported) to any folder, whose Absolute Path is say "C:\temp\WebDocs"

[Step#3]
open command prompt, change directory to "http09_v0.5beta.jar"'s directory and execute following command

cmd> java -jar http09_v0.5beta.jar "C:\temp\WebDocs"

if you want "C:\temp\WebDocs\index.html" to be default file opened at Website root, then instead run following command

cmd> java -jar http09_v0.5beta.jar "C:\temp\WebDocs" index.html

if Port 80 of your machine is already busy, and you want to run it at some other port say 1234, then run following command

cmd> java -jar http09_v0.5beta.jar "C:\temp\WebDocs" index.html 1234

[NOTE]
if you are on Linux/Unix not Windows follow the Note at end of this post


PreRequirement:
Instrall Java Virtual Machine on your Computer System.

Syntax :

[] Starting HTTP Server hosting web files in folder with as default file to open when root of IP accessed (it opens at Port 80 by default)
SYNTAX:
"java -jar http09_v0.5a.jar C:\WebDoc\ index.htm"

[] Starting HTTP Server hosting web files in folder with as default file to open when root of IP accessed; and 1234 is Port to be opened at (so access like http://IP:1234/index.htm)
SYNTAX:"java -jar http09_v0.5a.jar C:\WebDoc\ index.htm 1234"


NOTE:
to make it work in Linux, download Source Code, extract it and in /SRC/MACRO/appMACRO.java file
change to   and recompile the app
