h1. How to Support Configuration per Virtual Host # Use mod_simple_vhost to set up your virtual hosts in subdirectories, e.g. `/www/servers/www.mydomain.com/` etc. # Add an @include_shell@ option to the end of your config file: <pre> include_shell "/www/config_servers" </pre> # Create the file `/www/config_servers` with the following contents, and make sure it is readable (and executable?) by the lighttpd server: <pre> #!/bin/bash for VHOST in `find /var/servers/ -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 \( -type d -or -type l \) -exec test -e "{}/server.conf" \; -exec basename "{}" \; 2>/dev/null` ; do { echo "\$HTTP[\"host\"] == \"$VHOST\" {" echo "var.vhost_name = \"$VHOST\"" echo "server.document-root "var.vhost_path = \"/www/servers/$VHOST\"" cat "/www/servers/$VHOST/server.conf" echo "}" } ; done </pre> Then for each virtual host, just create a @server.conf@ file containing the options that should pertain to that host; the @config_servers@ script will wrap them in a condition matching the hostname, and set two variables: * @vhost_name@ : the virtual host name, e.g. "www.mydomain.com" * @vhost_path@ : the path to the virtual host directory, e.g. "/www/servers/www.mydomain.com"
