Running CMSMS with Pretty URL´s under lighttpd instead of apache
Posted: Tue Aug 26, 2008 9:11 pm
Hi Folks, I just got my personal VPS
I´m running Debian Etch with kernel 2.6.18, Mysql 5.0.32, lighttpd 1.4.13 using mod_rewrite and mod_fastcgi using PHP 5.2.0
lighttpd rewrite mechanism is really different from apache, since it´s supposed to be light and quick eating less resources. There´s no .htaccess or such to make it work, so I had to add it manually to lighttpd config.
I assume that you have mod_rewrite and mod_fastcgi working! And your base dir is /cms
add this to you config:
Explanation:
First line act as: if not file
Second line act as: if not dir (but we do need to specify dirs)
The rest is the same!
works really great, and lighttpd is really fast! and eat less system resources

url.rewrite-once = (

"/cms/(admin)/" => "$0",
"^/cms/([^.]+)$" => "/cmsms/index.php?page=$1",
"^/cms/$" => "cmsms/index.php"
)
