Is there any cost associated with hosting on the QUT Central Web Server or the QUT Central Streaming Media Server?
No, this is is a centrally provided service. However, like all shared QUT Central IT infrastructure services (e.g. email, internet access, telephones etc...) requests for service are subject to the resources available.
-
Can anyone put a webpage up on the QUT Central Web Server?
Some faculties and divisions have their own web server. Contact your local Computing Support Officer to ask what arrangements can be made for hosting your site. Please note that the QUT Central Web Server is to be used only for websites related to the business purposes of your organisational unit.
-
How do I make the homepage of my website come up when I type in my URL?
Make sure you name your homepage index.jsp or index.html. The web server will automatically return this file if someone accesses the top level directory of your web site without specifying a filename.
-
Should the links written in my website be relative or absolute?
You should use relative links to link to pages within your website. This
means when you move your webpage to a different location (for example from
development to the live server) you do not have to change all the links
in your website.
-
What are the rules for file and directory names on the QUT Central Web Server?
- Do not use spaces (use underscores if you need to separate words)
- Use all lowercase letters
- Do not use punctuation or special characters (such as .,!@#$%^&* etc)
- Keep your filenames and directory names short but meaningful
- Ensure your filenames and directory names are not too long
