How to run Abyss Web Server Software. There are many web servers out there. Microsoft IIS, Apache, Lighttpd, NGINX (prounced 'eNGINe X') to name a few. But there is one small web server company called Aprelium that makes a free product for personal use called 'Abyss'. Abyss is a web server with a twist. Abyss has all kinds of anti-hacker protection built in. Aprelium has been doing this since 2005, so 19 years of experience at it. Let me tell you. They are good. They've basically created a web server for windows that very closely mimics a web server like apache combined with a linux tool called FAIL2BAN. That's just one of their security features. I was awestruck today when I spoke to Shea Butter and her trusty sidekick Bob. Bob was telling me he's had several hundred thousand attacks against his apache server. I was in shock. So, doing what I do. I downloaded the windows abyss http server and click, click, click, next, it was installed. I then went into dreamgrids folder, into outworldz files, into apache, then into htdocs and copied every single file using ctrl-A to select all and ctrl-C to copy. Next I looked around in explorer and found the ABYSS WEB SERVER folder right on the root of the C: drive. In there I found another htdocs folder, so I opened it and pasted in the contents of dreamgrids apache folder using ctrl-P. Next I went to the dreamgrid console and turned off apache. Then I restarted Abyss. I checked it out, and it WORKS!!!! Then I logged into Abyss consoles anti-hacking protection, and there I set a few details to stop hackers in their tracks. Now I no longer worry about anyone hacking my webserver, as this thing is as hard to scratch as diamonds. Good Luck
