Got tired of trying to manage Apache, tried a very broken Chreokee, then nginx which was too hard to manage also. I now have lighttpd installed which seems simple to manage but out of the box Debian install does not work properly. I want to get it running with the web contents located in /var/www/; Its a mediawiki site and should run as it is installed directly into the main document directory. However, when I try to use http://localhost. or http://127.0.0.1 or the actual IP address of the computer on my network, it fails. This pops up in the url bar of the browser:
http://www.physicswiki.net//index.php?title=Main_Page It appears that the server is redirecting the request properly except for the double forward slash marks & removing one of them does not fix the issue; the lighttpd.conf file is below; > server.modules = ( > "mod_access", > "mod_alias", > "mod_compress", > "mod_redirect", > "mod_rewrite", > ) > > server.document-root = "/var/www" > server.upload-dirs = ( "/var/cache/lighttpd/uploads" ) > server.errorlog = "/var/log/lighttpd/error.log" > server.pid-file = "/var/run/lighttpd.pid" > server.username = "www-data" > server.groupname = "www-data" > server.port = 80 > > > index-file.names = ( "index.php", "index.html", > "index.lighttpd.html" ) > url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc" ) > static-file.exclude-extensions = ( ".php", ".pl", ".fcgi" ) > > compress.cache-dir = "/var/cache/lighttpd/compress/" > compress.filetype = ( "application/javascript", "text/css", > "text/html", "text/plain" ) > > $HTTP["host"] == "www.physicswiki.net" { > server.document-root = "/var/www/" > } > > # default listening port for IPv6 falls back to the IPv4 port > include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/use-ipv6.pl " + server.port > include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/create-mime.assign.pl" > include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/include-conf-enabled.pl" Except for the $HTTP["host"] line all this was set up by the debian installer & I've added nothing.
