Overview
Mongoose is small and easy to use web server. It is self-contained, and does not require any external software to run. Mongoose can be configured via command line options, or via configuration file. If no command line options are given, mongoose searches for a configuration file called "mongoose.conf" in the same directory where mongoose binary is located.
Configuration file is a sequence of lines, each line containing command line option name and it's value. Lines beginning with '#' and empty lines are ignored. Here is
# mongoose.conf file
document_root c:\www
listening_ports 8080,8043s
ssh_certificate c:\mongoose\ssl_cert.pem
