So this conditionnal will not work :

$HTTP["host"] =~ “(^|\.)nixcraft\.com$” {
>>>> server.errorlog = “/var/log/lighttpd/nixcraft/error.log”
}

You have one lighttpd running, so one error.log, so says one of the developers of lighty
> http://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/665#note-15

The only method is to track the errors by hand on the script or other, example : http://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/665#note-24

I will repeat what was said above, lighttpd is designed like that, let’s wait for a patch or other, who knows ?

Nassou.

# mkdir /var/log/lighttpd/nixcraft.com

but later you create a file server.errorlog = “/var/log/lighttpd/nixcraft/error.log”

Did you mean server.errorlog = “/var/log/lighttpd/nixcraft.com/error.log ?

Re:
# chown lighttpd:ftpuser1 /home/lighttpd/nixcraft.com/http
# chown lighttpd:ftpuser2 /home/lighttpd/theos.in/http

Please shed me some light on the groups “ftpuser1″ and “ftpuser2″. What they are? Thanks.

Neither I have user “lighttpd”. Whether run “addusr” to add it?

$SERVER["socket"] == “:80″ {
}
My cgi bin has a .cgi file in it.

http://localhost:8081/

$SERVER["socket"] == “:8081″ {
server.document-root = “/var/www/app_name/”
server.errorlog = “/var/log/lighttpd/app_name/error.log”
}

Also I noticed that user lighttpd wasn’t created however www-data worked fine, is this a problem to be using this user:group instead of lighttpd:lighttpd security wise or other?

Thanks again!

I mention the ftp username, where is the pass?

http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/wiki/Docs:Configuration
A port number might be appended to the end…so..

$HTTP["host"] =~ “(^|\.)nixcraft\.com(\:[0-9]*)?$”

Is probably a better guess. This worked for me. Cheers.

Do we have to do anything (some change in the .conf file). What is ipv6 and ipv4 all about?

i wish you would test your config to make sure it works before posting bogus “tutorials” like this.

Saved me some money!
