I successfully loaded the fpweb package.

Which is strange because it is already in the fpc distribution. Such things can only cause harm.
and fcl-web is packed full of examples. fcl-web used to be called fpweb so that is definitely old.

Hello,
The Tutorial is outdated --- recent Lazarus is slightly different.
You may add Webmodule at the creation of New (Http server) application, as in the attached image. Probably the red-circled part is not in the tutorial.
But as you have already created the project (without webmodule), you can add it. Go to main menu File > New > WebModule, and press OK. Then you may resume at #5 of the Tutorial.
--- Quote ---4. Whatever you choose, pick "OK" and you'll be presented in the default one module fpWeb app.
5. Focus the module and move to Object Inspector. Feel free to rename the module if you wish.

Don't get frustrated. Here are some people to advise you.

Part is me to blame as the original author of the article, I assume people will contribute and update accordingly. Turns out my assumption is wrong.
--- Quote from: dgrhoads on March 30, 2024, 06:14:10 pm ---Is it possible to use fpweb with a straight Application rather than the HTTP Server Application or the CGI Application? If so, is there a tutorial on how to do that?

You can even use it without any IDE, just a text editor. As written in the New Mechanism part of my tutorial:
--- Code: Pascal [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---uses fphttpapp, httpdefs, httproute; procedure DoHello(ARequest:TRequest; AResponse : TResponse);begin AResponse.Content:='<html><body><h1>Hello,World!</h1></body></html>'end; begin HTTPRouter.RegisterRoute('*', @DoHello); Application.Port := 9000; Application.Initialize; Application.Run;end. is all you need to get a working "Hello, World" example. I should probably write a new tutorial ignoring everything that uses the form designer or even the IDE wizard.
