Lighttpd Example

[apowell656]

I am unable to get this to work using lighttpd. I am able to see some pages, but clicking on links I receive 404 and/or 500 errors. Are there any recommendations for setup? Thanks in advance.

Solved using the following code and one more stab at Google (sad face) in my config file. url.rewrite = ( "..(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|swf|css|html)$" => "$0", "^/(.)$" => "index.php/$1" )

I don't know this server, but I created a sample configuration file and tested the configuration. This is the configuration I've set. Don't forget to pass some environment variables for the page requirements.php. And it is better to deny the access to .htaccess

## deny access the file-extensions
url.access-deny             = ( "~", ".inc", ".htaccess" )

#### fastcgi module
fastcgi.server = ( ".php" =>
( "localhost" =>
    (
        "docroot" => "d:/nginx/jorani",
        "host" => "127.0.0.1",
        "port" => 9000,
        "broken-scriptfilename" => "enable"
    )
)
)

#### url handling modules (rewrite, redirect, access)
url.rewrite = (
"/(.*)\.(.*)" => "$0",
"/(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|swf|css|html)/" => "$0",
"^/([^.]+)$" => "/index.php/$1"
)

#### setenv
setenv.add-environment = ( 
  "SERVER_SOFTWARE" => "lighttpd",
  "HTTP_MOD_REWRITE" => "On",
  "ALLOW_OVERWRITE" => "On"
)

Hey thanks for the more detailed sample config. I think this is a great way to go manage requests. I am going to see how I can get this to meet the use case that I need and then look at adding attendance tracking.

I am able to click throughout the program, but there is an oddity that I cannot figure out. I am not able to select a manager for a new user. Any help would be appreciated .

Could you please ask your question on a lighttpd forum. lighttpd is neither very used nowadays nor recommended due to its serious problem of memory leak. The feature your mentioned is working on ngnix and Apache. It is not related to the core code of Jorani. Thank you for your understanding.

I've made some search and lighttd project seems to be dead and we'll probably not get any support from its community as formerly known major users (wikipedia, youtube, etc.) are no more using it due to a serious problem of memory leak. I am closing this issue as this problem is not due to the core code of Jorani. I recommend you to migrate to nginx.

Thanks for the heads up, I will definitely do that.
