The Comp Code Net Web Server is a complete web server coded in C++ and compiled and tested on Debian Jessie. Our web site http://www.CompCodeNet.com runs on the web server on Debian 8 (Jessie) and the complete source code is on the download section of our web site.
This website is completely unusable when you have JS disabled, which disqualifies it as a credible software source in my eyes.
Anyway, the download page links to a file with a suspicious size: $ wget -q http://www.compcodenet.com/data/compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip $ wc -c < compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip 65536 And the file fails to unpack: $ unzip compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip Archive: compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip or compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip.zip, and cannot find compcodenet-webserver-src-code.zip.ZIP, period.
I am interested in packaging the web server for inclusion with Debian releases.
Do you have estimate how many people use this server, apart from you? What I've seen so far makes me feel that the number is 0, making it very poor candidate for a Debian package.
