I fixed this by doing an: apt purge lighttpd, then reinstalling.

I had previously tried an: apt remove lighttpd, then reinstalling, but that did not work.

For some reason, the purge did it. No idea why.

I am still getting a 403 error when I try to load .php files. I can load .html files, but not .php files.
