h2. == Lighttpd on FreeBSD == (If you don't want PHP skip step 2) h3. === Step 1. Verify ports installation === You should have a recent ports tree installed on your system. If you have not updated your ports tree recently, please do so before continuing. If you do not have a ports tree installed, you can use the portsnap utility to install or update it. I find this to be an extreemly quick way (under 15 minutes on a decent broadband connection) to install the full ports tree. And you don't even have to worry about cvsup or setting up configuration files. Download most recent ports snapshot: <pre> {{{ $ sudo portsnap fetch or # portsnap fetch </pre> }}} Example output: <pre> {{{ Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 2 mirrors found.

Install PHP 5 <pre> === {{{ cd /usr/ports/lang/php5 $ sudo make config or # make config </pre> }}} Verify that CGI and FastCGI are checked (default), and you want to enable REDIRECT as well. Choose ok. (Perhaps discard-path support as well?) Now to compile and install it: <pre> {{{ $ sudo make install clean or # make install clean </pre> h3. }}} === Step 3. Install lighttpd <pre> === {{{ cd /usr/ports/www/lighttpd $ sudo make config or # make config </pre> }}} Verify whatever options you want for your installation of lighttpd. Now to compile and install it: <pre> {{{ $ sudo make install clean or # make install clean </pre> h3. }}} === Step 4. Post install configuration === Refer to [[TutorialLighttpdAndPHP]] ["TutorialLighttpdAndPHP"] for more fun.
