Game not loading, stuck on "Starting Quake..."

[kernaltrap8]

Hello,
Upon loading index.htm, all I get is "Starting Quake...". I also get a pop up that says: "Protocol is file:, not http: or https:"

I would also like to know how to configure a server.
Thanks,
James

You need to follow step 1 from the readme:

Install a web server with HTTP 1.1 Range support. The project was developed and tested on Abyss Web Server on Windows, so it's guaranteed to work on it.
