Configuration File Options¶
Here you will find a list of all available configuration options in the lighttpd base distribution. They are grouped by module, and a link to each module configuration will provide with more detail information about each option, as well as examples, and other guidelines. While lighttpd has many options, a minimal lighttpd.conf
can be as small as one line (server.document-root = "..."
). For most options, it is recommended that lighttpd defaults be used unless you have a specific reason to change them.
Please begin with Configuration: Quick Start and Configuration: File Syntax before perusing below.
Modules must be listed in server.modules
or else options from that module will not be recognized by lighttpd. e.g. server.modules += ("mod_example")
(The only exceptions are the three core modules that lighttpd loads by default: mod_indexfile, mod_dirlisting, mod_staticfile)
