Lighttpd

Hi,

I have an issue with static files with .php extension...
I have one lighttpd (1.4.22-2) that keeps returning a 403 when I try to download a .php file.
I just installed a new lighttpd (1.4.28-1) on another server and it works fine (I can download the .php file)...

Here's the conf from the one that returns 403s:

server.modules              = ( "mod_access",
                                "mod_accesslog" )
server.document-root        = "/VOLUME" 
index-file.names            = ( "index.html" )
mimetype.assign             = (

 )
server.errorlog             = "/LOG/lighttpd/error.log" 
accesslog.filename          = "/LOG/lighttpd/access.log" 
#url.access-deny             = ( "~", ".inc" )
$HTTP["url"] =~ "\.pdf$" {
  server.range-requests = "disable" 
}
server.port                = 888
server.pid-file            = "/var/run/lighttpd.pid" 
server.username            = "nobody" 
server.groupname           = "nobody" 

I tried adding php to the mime section, but no luck...
Is it a version issue?
Which parameters should I check/add...?

Thx,
JD
