README.SLACKWARE For lighttpd (20090217)
lighttpd can be started and stopped through the initialization script that
is provided:
/etc/rc.d/rc.lighttpd start
/etc/rc.d/rc.lighttpd stop
If you would like to start lighttpd automatically when the system
is booted, add the following lines to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.lighttpd ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.lighttpd start
fi
Conversely, add the following lines to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown
to stop lighttpd on system shutdown.
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.lighttpd ]; then
/etc/rc.d/rc.lighttpd stop
fi
* PHP users:
Slackware's default php package is meant to work with
httpd (apache). It works fine with lighttpd with a couple of tweaks.
1) You can use its default configuration file /etc/php.ini
2) Uncomment mod_fastcgi from /etc/lighttpd/modules.conf.
3) Rework the fastcgi section of /etc/lighttpd/conf.d/fastcgi.conf to
the following (or just copy this in below the existing commented
out fastcgi config):
fastcgi.server = ( ".php" =>
( "localhost" =>
(
"socket" => "/var/run/lighttpd/php-fastcgi.socket",
"bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-cgi -c /etc/php.ini"
)
)
)
4) Add the lighttpd user to the apache group with a command like
gpasswd -a lighttpd apache
Otherwise php won't be able to use $_SESSION, as sessions are stored
in /var/lib/php, owned by root:apache with perms 0770.
