webserver & ext_mem

Hello,

Is there anybody successfully run CCS's tcp/ip "ex_st_webserver3.c" example with web pages (mpfsimg2.bin) stored on external memory?
Also how to upload new image with tftp or browser like original Microchip example?

I'm playng with this development board: https://www.olimex.com/Products/PIC/Proto/PIC-P67J60/

I've successfully run example with mpfsimg2.bin stored in program memory.

Best Regards!

While I don't use that PIC or do 'web stuff', I had a quick look at the board and schematic. I would think that to get data from the external memory instead of pgm mem, you just need a 'wrapper' to access the data. Since the ext mem is an SPI device, CCS may have a driver for it , if not , one similar and just recode as required.

Be sure to copy the driver and edit the COPY, NOT the original file !

Hello,

Every things work fine! The problem was my "windows tftp client". Now I have successfully run webserver with pages (mpfsimg2.bin file) stored on external spi flash (at45db010) through tftp server.

P.S I have used "TFTPUtil Client GUI".

Best regards.
