Lighttpd

= Ruby on Rails with Lighttpd =

A document is available at http://old.bougyman.com/RailsonDebian.html which contains step by step instructions on setting rails up with lighttpd. A more abbreviated version (different author, i believe jawong) is available at http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/Lighttpd .
May you have happy Railing.

Let's say: For an easy setup you want to use [http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/simple-vhost.html simple-vhost] but still want to separate the rails-installation:

{{{
$HTTP["host"] == "ruby.example.org" {
server.document-root = "/var/www/site/public/"
fastcgi.server = ...
}
$HTTP["host"] != "ruby.example.org" {
simple-vhost.server-root = "/var/www/servers/"
simple-vhost.default-host = "www.example.org"
simple-vhost.document-root = "pages"
}
}}}
