I set up a hotspot on raspberry pi via this link: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/access-point.md
and I want to open an HTML welcome page in the user's browser on the link: localhost:80 when any user connects to a Raspberry Pi hotspot without a captive portal or any software program.
Note: I am using Raspbian Buster lite.
I want to open an HTML Welcome pages on the user's browser on the link: localhost:80 when any user connects to Raspberry Pi hotspot.
As you said, you need a splash page for the clients and it's part of a captive portal mechanism. I suggest you NoDogSplash.
By THIS link, you will not get stuck on installation.

I created an app with the above mention technologies, and I hosted it on local server of XAMPP, now I'm trying to figure out how to share this checkout system app with 4 other coworkers, so they can easily access the app on their on PC and checkout equipment to other customers when I'm not around.
We are all on the same network, wired LAN.
Thanks for any help.
This solved what I'm basically trying to do, because all computers where on the same network.
I did IPCONFIG, in cmd to view my IPV4, then went to a different PC, knowing my IP4V, I went into a browser on a different PC and did
http://192.168.XX.XXX/SomeFolderInSidehtcdoc/myappfolder/index.php
and behold it opened, I entered data into it, and checked out my database and same data were available.
I need to install the HPE Mobile Center Connector on my local pc without any server just for a trial with UFT. can anyone advice what should i give in the Mobile center IP Address? since server port is by default: 8080
If you want to test mobile with UFT you need to have a mobile center server installed.
The Mobile Center Connector is not used by UFT, it's just a way to connect mobile devices to the MC server without physically connecting the device to the server machine. You should think of the connector as a way to extend the MC server. UFT connects to the server and can see all devices connected to the server (either physically or via connector) so if you don't have a server machine the connector has no meaning.
You can install the MC sever on a virtual machine if this helps.
You can install MC all in one which includes server + connector. It's supported for both Windows & Linux.
There is a trial version so you can test it with UFT.
If you want to try out Mobile testing with UFT, there is a free resource that you can use:
https://marketplace.microfocus.com/appdelivery/content/uft-mobile-add-in-for-local-device
More info from Micro Focus marketplace:
"This “add-in” acts as a connector between UFT and the mobile devices connected directly to the UFT machine. In just a few steps, UFT users can start designing and running mobile app and web tests on one local mobile device at a time without purchasing an additional license. Whether you work in Retail, Telecom, Finance, or other adjacent industries, the UFT Mobile Add-in for Local Devices is a great fit for testers who need to:
Execute their omnichannel content strategy using the same script for desktop and mobile web content
Support mobile testing in organisations that do not have a lab management solution in place
Run mobile tests without needing a new tool for mobile only"
I am working on a network controller based on Raspberry Pi 2. I have nicely working WiFi AP, DHCP server, captive portal (via DNSmasq) and a web server. The unit is fully offline, no internet access is available.
My only problem now is that users need to initiate interaction by running their browser and typing in a random domain so they are served my content.
I was searching the internet for a way to make my iPhone initiate captive network assistant, but couldn't find a way to do so on iOS 8.
Given that my network is offline with no access to the internet it is clear to me that my iPhone detected a captive portal as it presumably pings many websites in order to determine it's online status. Why doesn't it display my login screen automatically?
I'm trying to develop a web app which uses geolocation, and to begin with it worked fine on my Windows 7 PC at home, both in Chrome and Firefox.
It still works fine on mobile browsers, but has stopped working on both browsers on my PC, which made me wonder how it actually works on my PC - is it querying a geographical database of IP addresses that could now be blocking me due to overuse?
Is there any way to change the settings? The "Location and Other Sensors" control panel tells me there are no sensors installed, and nothing shows up in the event log for "Location Activity".
Firefox gathers information about nearby wireless access points and
your computer’s IP address. Then Firefox sends this information to the
default geolocation service provider, Google Location Services, to get
an estimate of your location. That location estimate is then shared
with the requesting website.
From: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/geolocation/
This is also how Chrome determines location (Sending IP and nearby Wi-Fi info to Google Location Services). It seems likely that Windows 7 does about the same thing, though I couldn't find specific details other than it uses postal code if available.
I am working on a WP7 application that retrieves data from a web service. The web service was written by a co-worker and is hosted on a server connected to the office network. The app works just fine in the emulator. However, when I run the app on the actual phone (HTC Surround) it can't connect to the web service. If I try to open a website hosted on the same server that doesn't work either. However I can connect to other websites just fine.
One thing to note is - I don't have a SIM card in the phone, so the only available data connection is via WiFi, which connects to the office network (the same network that the service is hosted on).
I'm able to hit this website just fine from my laptop (on the wired office network), via an Android phone using WiFi, and via an Android phone using 4G.
What could be going on here? Alternatively - how can I debug this issue?
Thanks
I'd start debugging it by using Connectify.me (or something similar) to re-broadcast the wifi network you're having problems with, start Fiddler up and analyze what happens when the device's browser connects to some external site vs the site hosted on your network.
