If you installed the Nut/OS 4.8.8 distribution on Windows, you'll find
binaries in subdirectory

bin\boards\ethernut30e\arm-gcc\

I just tested the httpserv.bin and it works.

Note, that the default is to run in RAM, using TFTP as explained at

http://www.ethernut.de/nutwiki/Ethernut_3.0_E

Unfortunately the Linux distri comes without binaries.

In Nut/OS 4.9 beta I recently had the problem, that the receiver thread
stack in arch/arm/dev/at91_emac.c overflowed. It worked before and I
assume that this appeared after updating the compiler.

May be it helps to increase

#define NUT_THREAD_NICRXSTACK   384

Please let us know if it helps and what compiler version you are using.

  arm-elf-gcc --version

Regards,

Harald
