Lighttpd

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a lighttpd webserver on my raspberry pi with support for python.8

I followed the guide on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/lighttpd

I get a fine html test page on localhost, but I can't run a .py script. I've never set up a webserver before, so I might have done something trivial wrong.

I'm not sure where to put my script. I tried both /srv/http/cgi-bin/index.py and /srv/http/index.py I get

"Unable to connect" when I open 192.168.0.106/index.py

I hope someone can help me out.

My /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf is as follows, and my /etc/lighttp/conf.d/cgi-conf is pasted in below.

lighttpd.conf:

# This is a minimal example config
# See /usr/share/doc/lighttpd
# and http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/wiki/Docs:ConfigurationOpti$
