Mark for installation (+) in aptitude

• lighttpd
• Do g
• Scroll down to the “Packages which are suggested by other packages” section
• Mark for installation php-cgi. php7.3-cgi also gets marked for installation.
  • This procedure installs PHP without installing Apache
• Mark for installation fam (File Alteration Monitor)
• Mark for installation rrdtool
• Do g

The configuration file can be checked with: lighttpd -tt -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

• Put a sample .html page in /var/www/html/
• chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/
• Check with a web browser if you can load the page
• Put a sample .php page in /var/www/html/
• Check with a web browser if you can load the page

• Make sure file permissions are www-data:www-data for the root directory of the website and all the files in it.
• Read: /var/log/lighttpd/error.log
• vi /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf and check if

  server.modules = (
  "mod_access",
  "mod_fastcgi",
  #  "mod_alias",
  #  "mod_auth",
  #  "mod_evasive",
  #  "mod_redirect",
  #  "mod_rewrite",
  #  "mod_setenv",
  #  "mod_usertrack",
  )

  is in it

• Start the fastcgi services by running lighty-enable-mod and then entering fastcgi fastcgi-php
  • Then run service lighttpd force-reload; systemctl status lighttpd.service # systemctl start lighttpd.service might be needed if lighttpd is not started
  • Maybe do
• Run

  ln -s /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/10-fastcgi.conf /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/
  ln -s /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/15-fastcgi-php.conf /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled

• We got, after running systemctl status lighttpd.service

• Then

  #systemctl restart lighttpd.service
  # systemctl status lighttpd.service

• Check for errors with
  • journalctl -xe
• Put a index.html file only containing “Hello” in the root direcory of the website
• /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf:
  • static-file.exclude-extensions setting: includes “.php” to prevent sending out the sourcecode. This is a security feature
• Still a 403. Work in progress. Has something to do with PHP since index.html loads fine and index.php results in a 403

example lighttpd.config file

• Do not combine a PHP-FPM configuration and a PHP-CGI configuration
  • If you run the PHP-FPM as an external service leave the “socket” pointing to the PHP-FPM socket
    • Remove the /usr/bin/php-cgi from the lighttpd.config file

Do

cd /usr/bin
ln -s /usr/sbin/php-fpm7.3 /usr/bin/php-fpm

• Download Dokuwiki
• Copy the downloaded Dokuwiki file to /var/www/html
• Do tar xf [the downloaded Dokuwiki file]
• Do chown -R root:root

Lighttpd runs fine and is accessable from localhost:

http://localhost

but not from an ohter host (computer)
Possible causes

• A firewall issue. Also check
  • iptables -L
  • nft (Net Filter Tables)
• Check with netstat -nap | grep lighttpd. You should get something like

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      1645/lighttpd       
tcp6       0      0 :::80                   :::*                    LISTEN      1645/lighttpd

Check if lighttpd is running

systemctl status lighttpd.service

If not start lighttpd with one of these two commands

systemctl start lighttpd.service
/etc/init.d/lighttpd start                                          

When you get

[....] Starting lighttpd (via systemctl): lighttpd.serviceJob for lighttpd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.                                
See "systemctl status lighttpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.                                                                                                    
  failed!

Check if there are any broken links in

/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled

If so, remove them
Start lighttpd with one of these two commands

systemctl start lighttpd.service
/etc/init.d/lighttpd start

and check with

systemctl status lighttpd.service
