I got the same error as jrunner. I am running lighttpd 1.4.26 on Mint 9 (Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid).

If I don’t paste in the fastcgi.server line as directed in the tutorial above, then it works. I think this is because the fastcgi.server is already enabled in
/etc/lighttpd/config-enabled/10-fastcgi.conf

Hello, one question (as I don’t know a whole lot about Unix, but I’m setting up a server??? Lol) does aptitude take care of a the dependencies?

Thanks for this tutorial! I have been trying to setup LLMP on a Rackspace Cloud Server in SEVERE FRUSTRATION!!!!

You saved my life! Also, thanks to Will Power for the Apache uninstall tips.

Thanks for such a good tutorial! I am using Ubuntu 9.04, and had to remove Apache like Will did. Otherwise, it worked well. This is a very easy way to install a low memory web server!

I’ll look into this and if I can find a fix, I’ll post a new tutorial for 9.04.. Thanks for the heads up!

Brilliant, quick and easy.

One tiny problem on Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope. Somehow, apache installed itself during this process. I had to remove the following packages to get lighttpd back up:

libapache2-mod-php5
apache2-mpm-prefork
apache2.2-common

But now its working like a dream.

Fantastic – this is the fastest LLMP setup I have done.

Installed it on Debian Lenny 64 bit, without any problems.

Great job.
