View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running CentOS 5.5 Final on my VPS and IO am using lighttpd for a webserver. I am trying to find a way to upgrade this to the latest version using Yum.I want to find a repository that will allow me to upgrade to lighttpd-1.4.26-2.el5 with the required dependencies. I would also like to do the same for LUA 5.1.4.I have found older versions of lighttpd but not the latest in an RPM / Yum installable version. I have found tarballs and binary version but I am of the understanding that I should use yum to manage my packages to keep the system neat and easy to upgrade / remove etc. in future.
Can anyone advise me as to where I can find these programs and how I would connect to the right repository to get them.
I have been searching in the forum and google but still not lucky enough to figure out yetI have a lighttpd server runningbecause apache consume so much CPU and memory) andqmailtoaster (just setup).Here is the configuration in cgi modules:

This is what I did till now and all was installed with success:
yum update
wget [URL]
yum install lighttpd
chkconfig --levels 235 lighttpd on
/etc/init.d/lighttpd start
Must I configure something else too? if yes... what?

1) Set the Directory options to FollowSymLinks
2) Verified all directory and file permissions are at 755
3) Set permissions temporarily to 777 and received same error so I am assuming the issue is in a config file somewhere
4) in hhtpd.conf verified <Files ~ "^.ht"> is correct
5) verified the "default" directory is correct (/var/www/html)
I have read and tried several ideas in posts listed on the web but to no avail and am at a loss as to what to look for next..
I am trying to solve a problem where Apache stats aren't displaying correctly in Munin. I've ran through quite a bit of checks and tests regarding Munin setup, but I think my issue is related to Apache, but my skill set there is lacking.

While playing a bit (fdisk) with a new machine (Intel 2 Duo E6750) that I have (with 2 SATA disks), I found a "strange" thing. If I boot the server from a Knoppix distro, fdisk sees 2 scsi HDD devices (sda and sdb). Ok, this was the expected. But if I boot the machine with the centOS 5.2 x86_64, while doing the partitioning the disks are recognized as hda and hdb, that is, IDE disks.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat is the difference between the boot.iso and netinstall.iso images? I've looked at the wiki and done some Googling, but haven't found a good answer yet. I know it is probably going to be something obvious, but in the context of installing a Xen fully virtualised guest there doesn't seem to be much difference. After booting both ask for the location of the install tree and proceed happily.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi just finished installing CentOS 5 in my laptop. While I was trying to configure my Wireless network to connect internet, I found a guide in CentOS site which recommended to start "NetworkManger" service so as to setup wireless network. I followed and it Worked great.
But i would like to understand the difference between "Network" service and "NetworkManager" service. I had initially thought restarting "Network" service would help. explaining the basic difference between these 2 services.
U have spent 4 days trying to configure my router thinking that it is my router that is not working but when I go to my dynamic dns or my static ip address it takes me to my admin router on the local computers.when I type httpd it says it cannot bind to port 0.0.0.0:80 i checked it is set up to listen to port 80 this is really confusing me i am beginning to think the people who built my server did not set it up properly if i go to localhost or 0.0.0.127 it goes to the apache default page fine.I have not changed anything since it wad installed except the centos 5 updates any ideas?When i login my password is root and the password is the default I have changed nothing else on the system as I still have no clue about it.Just to clarify on my router I have port 80 and port 443 set to my static ip address is this correct or should it be the eth0 Bcast ip address?Can anyone give me an idea of what i need to check? On my router I have set up port 80 and port 443 and dynamic dns and static ip address.Sorry I am totally new to linux never used it before would be nice if anyone has any ideas how i can proceed with this.

We are able to stream the video fine from while the flv file is located in the /var/videos/flv folder. We have a second volume that we formatted and mounted as /media/data/videos/flv.

I'm trying to configure lighttpd to send SCGI requests to different ports, depending on what file(s) are accessed. Is this possible? This is what I've tried, and it hasn't worked.

SCGI requests aren't sent to the correct port, regardless of what file is accessed.
the questions is how to get per directory config working for lighttpd? so far from googling i've seen people trying to use conditionals to match certain rules for a vhost , but i don't think that messing around with the main config file for each directory/vhost/whatever is such a good idea.
More importantly , i'm looking for a standardized method to achieve this which would work by simple putting an htaccess-like file into a directory and do the magic. i'm not interested in maintaining apache htaccess syntax , only to get the per directory config to work regardless of the syntax used.
