Hi, sorry to bother you.. I have lighty lighttpd-1.4.19 (ssl) installed and running on my debian for mor than 6 months.

Today I notice that its behaving very very VERY slow. I updated my apt if im not wrong on monday, and restarted lighty yesterday.

I see no CPU usage, and memory seems like always. I thought the prob was fast-cgi, but every page even html static ones, within a few seconds after lighty is restarted it wont load, well maybe like 5 minutes later.

Its not like a have thousands of visits… but it was good two days ago.. also browse with a anony proxy and it gives time out

Any idea?

We are also getting this error:

/etc/init.d/lighttpd start

What package provides mod_proxy_core.so ?

What about using the configuration settings on a system that has a standard yum installation of an earlier version of lighttpd. Would there be collisions? Would an update to yum overwrite this installation? I just haven’t found enough information, or experience, to decipher the configure options. Any help would be appreciated. I would uninstall the standard package on my Centos, but I wonder if it would be overwritten later during a yum update.

Thanks
Eric

Make sure apache is not running on Port 25. Type command
/etc/init.d/httpd stop
Try again.
