I have been experiment with the arduino uno board from few days but can't seem to make it serve web page stored in SD card of ethernet shield.
If I print the contents of the file to serial it works properly, even embedding the HTML code works fine, but client.write()
just produces a never ending garbage text of ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <SD.h>
byte mac[] = { 0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED };
IPAddress ip(192, 168, 0, 115);
EthernetServer server(80);
File webFile;
void setup()
{
pinMode(4, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(4, HIGH);
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip);
server.begin();
Serial.begin(9600);
// initialize SD card
Serial.println("Initializing SD card...");
if (!SD.begin(4)) {
Serial.println("ERROR - SD card initialization failed!");
return;
}
Serial.println("SUCCESS - SD card initialized.");
// check for index.htm file
if (!SD.exists("index.htm")) {
Serial.println("ERROR - Can't find index.htm file!");
return; // can't find index file
}
Serial.println("SUCCESS - Found index.htm file.");
}
void loop()
{
EthernetClient client = server.available(); // try to get client
if (client) { // got client?
boolean currentLineIsBlank = true;
while (client.connected()) {
if (client.available()) { // client data available to read
char c = client.read(); // read 1 byte (character) from client
// last line of client request is blank and ends with \n
// respond to client only after last line received
if (c == '\n' && currentLineIsBlank) {
// send a standard http response header
client.println("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
client.println("Content-Type: text/html");
client.println("Connection: close");
Serial.println("starting to open htm");
client.println();
// send web page
webFile = SD.open("index.htm"); // open web page file
if (webFile) {
while(webFile.available()) {
client.write(webFile.read()); // send web page to client
}
webFile.close();
}
break;
}
// every line of text received from the client ends with \r\n
if (c == '\n') {
// last character on line of received text
// starting new line with next character read
currentLineIsBlank = true;
}
else if (c != '\r') {
// a text character was received from client
currentLineIsBlank = false;
}
} // end if (client.available())
} // end while (client.connected())
delay(1); // give the web browser time to receive the data
client.stop(); // close the connection
} // end if (client)
}
Sorry for the poor formatting, I just copied it from tutorial, please help me out.
client.write()
? From a web browser? Have you tried opening the file before you start writing to the client, maybe insetup()
? In case opening the file takes too long and is causing the process to time out? Show us the contents of "index.htm".
