The various HTTP/HTTPS settings that are available to configure CompleteFTP sites are described below. Note that settings must be saved via the Apply Changes button, otherwise they will be lost.

Please note that HTTP and HTTPS should not be enabled until any other HTTP/HTTPS services on the server machine are shut down, e.g. IIS and Apache. Other products such as Skype also use the HTTP and HTTPS default ports of 80 and 443.

There are additional HTTP settings in Limits & Timeouts.

Setting	Description
HTTP Enabled	If checked, the HTTP protocol is enabled. If not checked, HTTP will not be supported by the server. If enabling, ensure that other HTTP servers are not running on the server machine.
HTTPS Enabled	If checked, the HTTPS protocol is enabled. If not checked, HTTPS will not be supported by the server. If enabling, ensure that other HTTPS servers are not running on the server machine.
Public HTTP access enabled	If checked, unauthenticated users will be able to access any file in the public folder. Unauthenticated users are represented by the user called 'anonymous'. By default the home-folder of this user is /Public, so this is the folder that will be publicly accessible if this option is enabled.
Port for HTTP	Port that is used for HTTP. The standard port number for HTTP is port 80.
Port for HTTPS	Port that is used for HTTPS. The standard port number for HTTP is port 443.
Listening IP addresses	Lists the IP addresses to listen on for this protocol. All network interfaces can be selected, or individual interfaces selected.
Custom MIME types	A MIME type, or Internet media type, is a two part identifier for file formats. In its most basic form, it defines the type and the subtype for a file extension. For example, HTML files are defined as "text/html". The webserver sends the MIME type to the browser as part of the file being downloaded, and the browser uses the MIME type to decide how best to display the file. An HTML file, with a MIME type of "text/html", will be displayed as a web page. Most common MIME types are included by default in CompleteFTP. Custom MIME types can be added, either as additional file types or to override default MIME types.
