Wouldn't it be dead simple to just get Apache in the repositories, then maybe something like webmin to configure it. Then we could get the 'gallery2' ported and then you'd have the same thing.
We do already have lighthttpd. Probably better than running full-fledged apache, but it makes me wonder what backend this ovi package is using.

Does anyone know on what this "MobileWebServer" is based on?

Also, most people have Python installed as a dependency of some app or other.
A web server is a one-liner in Python.
If that's not enough, web2py and its available apps are very powerful and the simplest thing to run on Maemo (see blog in my .sig for more on that).

I'm sure there are a dozen ways to do this in QT or in python that don't require a full fledged apache or lighthttpd implementation. This kind of code is a common thing to do...look at desktop apps like bittorrent clients and music servers that have built-in web servers for remote access.
Kudos to this author for coming up with something creative like this. I think the need to find your ip address makes this kind of thing a little more difficult to use for many people, but it is an example of the kind of thing that is possible on an open and accessible platform. File upload/download is just the tip of the iceberg of what you could do with this kind of setup. Just about anything the phone can do (initiate calls, access address book, send/recieve sms, camera and sensor access) is possible through a wifi/webserver setup.

This reminds me Nokia Research Project on symbian some years ago - it used apache and it provided password protected access to phones calendar, sms, camera, addressbook and it had small blogging utility. If I remember correctly it used aliases under mymobilesite.net domain. My phone used to be pekkis.mymobilesite.net

Pekkis: that sounds a bit like Opera's apps on the desktop browser. Was it actually an apache browser open on the device, or a client app on the phone which checked in with the server and responded to requests routed from there?
This app appears to be a true server--listening for http requests and responding to them. There are lots of reasons why you wouldn't want to do this full-time on a phone: among them battery life and the fact that the phone doesn't appear to be addressable when not on wifi and on the t-mobile network. But for a limited application like making photos (or information) available from the phone, it has some promise.

Just noticed a Mobile Web Server application in Ovi Store:
http://store.ovi.com/content/55858?c...a=applications
Not available in Australia, but can see it on my browser on the PC.
Anyone tried this out yet? It's a paid app, $1.99.
