I'm trying to server an HTML file to users who are connected on the same network using the webbit library.

This is what I expect:

Pressing a button in the android app to start the HTTP server (HTML file is under assets/web/index.html) Any of the same network users would be able to browse that HTML using the local IP of the phone like 192.168.0.xxx:8080 (or any other port used in implementation)

This is how I tried:

WebServer webServer = WebServers.createWebServer(8080)
                    .add("/mysocket", new HelloWebSockets())
                    .add(new StaticFileHandler("web"));
            webServer.start();

I ran the app and started the server and tried to visit the page but I got

PAGE NOT FOUND 404

Help will be much appreciated. If the question is not clear please comment. Thanks.

Which url is used by the browser? – blackapps Jul 16 '20 at 11:07
`PAGE NOT FOUND 404`. Not very informative. Which page is not found? – blackapps Jul 16 '20 at 11:08
192.168.0.179:8080 – Nithis Kumar Jul 16 '20 at 11:21
@blackapps there is only one index.html page there. – Nithis Kumar Jul 16 '20 at 11:22
Ok. But i asked wich url you used. You should ask for the page itself and use `http://192.168.0.179:8080/index.htm` or `https://192.168.0.179:8080/index.html`. – blackapps Jul 16 '20 at 11:42
`HTML file is under assets/web/index.html` How did you tell your server that that file is there? – blackapps Jul 16 '20 at 11:46
