lighttpd
|ubuntu-9.10
Hi,
I am trying to run lighttpd on Ubuntu 9.10. I get the conf file from the doc directory of lighttpd source.
$ sudo ./lighttpd -f lighttpd.conf
$ ps -ef | grep lighttpd
root 2094 1 0 19:40 ? 00:00:00 ./lighttpd -f lighttpd.conf
This is my lighttpd.conf:
$ more lighttpd.conf
# lighttpd configuration file
#
# use it as a base for lighttpd 1.0.0 and above
#
# $Id: lighttpd.conf,v 1.7 2004/11/03 22:26:05 weigon Exp $
############ Options you really have to take care of ####################

## enable debugging
#debug.log-request-header = "enable"
#debug.log-response-header = "enable"

### only root can use these options
#
# chroot() to directory (default: no chroot() )
#server.chroot = "/"
## change uid to <uid> (default: don't care)
#server.username = "wwwrun"
## change uid to <uid> (default: don't care)

#### compress module

#### fastcgi module
## read fastcgi.txt for more info
## for PHP don't forget to set cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1 in the php.ini
#fastcgi.server = ( ".php" =>
# ( "localhost" =>
# (
# "socket" => "/var/run/lighttpd/php-fastcgi.s
ocket",
# "bin-path" => "/usr/local/bin/php-cgi"

#### auth module
## read authentication.txt for more info
#auth.backend = "plain"

#### url handling modules (rewrite, redirect, access)
#url.rewrite = ( "^/$" => "/server-status" )
#url.redirect = ( "^/wishlist/(.+)" => "http://www.123.org/$1" )
#### both rewrite/redirect support back reference to regex conditional using %n
#$HTTP["host"] =~ "^www\.(.*)" {
# url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://%1/$1" )
#}
#
# define a pattern for the host url finding
# %% => % sign
# %0 => domain name + tld
# %1 => tld
# %2 => domain name without tld
# %3 => subdomain 1 name
# %4 => subdomain 2 name
#
#evhost.path-pattern = "/srv/www/vhosts/%3/htdocs/"
#### expire module

cess plus 1 seconds 2 minutes")

#### setenv
#setenv.add-request-header = ( "TRAV_ENV" => "mysql://user@host/db" )

# trigger-before-download.download-url = "^/download/"
# trigger-before-download.deny-url = "http://127.0.0.1/index.html"
# trigger-before-download.trigger-timeout = 10
#### variable usage:
## variable name without "." is auto prefixed by "var." and becomes "var.bar"
#bar = 1
#var.mystring = "foo"
## integer add
#bar += 1
## string concat, with integer cast as string, result: "www.foo1.com"
#server.name = "www." + mystring + var.bar + ".com"
## array merge
#index-file.names = (foo + ".php") + index-file.names
#index-file.names += (foo + ".php")
#### include
#include /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd-inc.conf
## same as above if you run: "lighttpd -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf"
#include "lighttpd-inc.conf"
#### include_shell
#include_shell "echo var.a=1"
## the above is same as:
#var.a=1
When I go to browser and hit 'http://127.0.0.1', I get link not found. Any idea?
