#17774: Provide a more usable default-configuration for Lighty/lighttpd ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: mr_bond@… | Owner: pguyot@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: lighttpd configfile | Port: www/lighttpd ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- The default configuration file is not well suited for OS X or Macports. We should provide a sane default, so users easily can start using the package. The config-file in Macports, looks like it's been taken directly out of SLES/SuSELinux. server.document-root, should be something inside macports, like /opt/local/www/htdocs, or /opt/local/www/data. the user/gid, should be the user created by macports, "_www", not "wwwrun". The config should be usable almost out of the box. Novice users will spend many hours debugging theese things, and then turn to the irc-channel or such for help. Maybee they will end up not using lighttpd at all, or use it on a system with "easier to use" packages. It is very nice that the port has a launchdaemon launcer. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17774> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
