Use the source code to install Lighttpd in centos 5.6

Document directory

• Configuration

The Lighttpd documentation mentions that you can use

Yum install lighttd

To install, but I did not succeed in centos5.6, so I had to use the source code for installation.

Download

Download the Lighttpd source code package from the Lighttpd official website.

I downloaded version 1.4.29. If you use version 1.4.27 or earlier, the initialization code will be different. For more information, see the documentation.

Download the Lighttpd source package and unzip the tar zxvf lighttpd-1.4.29.tar.gzcd lighttpd-1.4.29

Install dependency

At the same time, you need to download two packages, which are the minimum package required by Lighttpd. You can also install other packages. For details, see the Lighttpd documentation.

Yum install PCRE-devel
Yum install zlib-devel
Bzip2-devel is optional, if you do not install this package, configure will prompt to add the suffix, simply also installed
Yum install bzip2-devel
Configure./configure

Buildmake

Install make install

Initialization code:

Sed-E's/Foo/Lighttpd/G' DOC/initscripts/rc. Lighttpd. RedHat>/etc/init. d/Lighttpd
Chmod A + Rx/etc/init. d/lighttpdcp-p doc/initscripts/sysconfig. Lighttpd/etc/sysconfig/lighttpdmkdir-P/etc/Lighttpd
cp -R doc/config/conf.d/ doc/config/*.conf doc/config/vhosts.d/ /etc/lighttpd/
chkconfig lighttpd on
If the version is 1.4.27 or earlier, initialize the code
