Start up script for lighttpd?

Hi all,

I'm so not good at Unix stuff - a while ago I got a copy of the
/etc/init.d/lighttpd from someone on this list but I lost it.

I tried modifying from another file myself. Somehow it doesn't
start the back end process (Python FCGI) properly. The Python
back-end somehow can not find some modules. But if I run the
same command /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd -f /etc/lighttpd.conf,
it works just fine.

Can anyone help point out what I'm doing wrong? Below is the file.

The script you sent just starts lighttpd, not the backend process.

What's the exact error message here?

Re[2]: Start up script for lighttpd?

Hello Christian,

In my case, lighttpd starts the fastcgi process automatically.
The exact error:

[root <at> server init.d]# Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/web/webapp.py", line 4, in ?
    import web
ImportError: No module named web
2008-06-14 17:38:27: (mod_fastcgi.c.1025) the fastcgi-backend /web/webapp.py failed to start:
2008-06-14 17:38:27: (mod_fastcgi.c.1029) child exited with status 1 /web/webapp.py
2008-06-14 17:38:27: (mod_fastcgi.c.1032) If you're trying to run PHP as a FastCGI backend, make sure
you're using the FastCGI-enabled version.
You can find out if it is the right one by executing 'php -v' and it should display '(cgi-fcgi)' in the output,
NOT '(cgi)' NOR '(cli)'.
For more information, check
http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/wiki/Docs%3AModFastCGI#preparing-php-as-a-fastcgi-programIf
this is PHP on Gentoo, add 'fastcgi' to the USE flags.

I found out that somehow when run from /etc/init.d/lighttpd,
a wrong version of Python is invoked.

There seems to be an error in webapp.py, not much lighttpd can do about 
it. Maybe you're better off asking this on a python-* list.
