Default site

For every Linux based BoxLang Cloud Server a Systemd daemon is used to get up and running a Web Server on well know HTTP port 80/TCP. Depending of the server flavor this can be started using BoxLang MiniServer or CommandBox. If you want to start a custom site or application, you can update this daemon service if need it, or just only place your custom site or application under /web/boxlang-site/wwwroot directory.

Server	Red Hat like	Debian like	Daemon name
BoxLang MiniServer	boxlang-miniserver --host 0.0.0.0 --port 80 --webroot /web/boxlang-site/wwwroot --rewrites index.cfm	boxlang-miniserver --host 0.0.0.0 --port 80 --webroot /web/boxlang-site/wwwroot --rewrites index.cfm	boxlang-miniserver
BoxLang with CommandBox	/bin/box server start serverConfigFile=server.json	/usr/local/bin/box server start serverConfigFile=server.json	coldbox-site

If you only place your custom site under /web/boxlang-site/wwwroot remember to delete their content before in order to remove the sample ColdBox Application
