Limits in Breadstick

Apache cannot use port 80 or 443, which Android does not give apps, so set a port above 1024 in its ports.conf and site config.

Apache HTTP Server in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own apache2 package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so Apache HTTP Server should behave as it does on a Linux PC. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.

Commands in the package

  • apache2ctl
  • a2enmod
  • a2ensite
  • a2disconf
  • a2dismod
  • a2dissite
  • a2enconf
  • a2query
  • apachectl

There is no systemd in Breadstick, so a server does not start on its own: you start it by hand from the Terminal. Android does not give apps the network ports below 1024, so a web or file server listens on a higher port, and other devices on your network can reach it at the device's address when it listens on all addresses and Breadstick is running. More in the docs: What Breadstick cannot do: the system itself.

About Apache HTTP Server

From Debian's package description

The Apache HTTP Server Project's goal is to build a secure, efficient and extensible HTTP server as standards-compliant open source software. The result has long been the number one web server on the Internet.

Installing this package results in a full installation, including the configuration files, init scripts and support scripts.
