hi there,
does anybody have some experiences with installing oxid on a server with lighttpd running?
It seem’s that it is not possible to pass step1 off installation because of the mod_rewrite Modul.
lightty can also do url rewriting …

Hi Daniel,
have you checked the .htaccess in your shop? Maybe you need an additional entry
RewriteBase /shopfolder/
Regards
hi marco,
no, thats not the problem. the installer is searching for “Apache mod_rewrite Modul”.
but I have no apache webserver running. I have lighttpd (an other webserver) running.
does anybody translated the .htaccess rules into lighttpd rewrite rules?
daniel
I would be interested in this too.
@danzz - have you been able to make progress on .htaccess?
Thanks, Ashant
BTW: What would also be neat is if OXID allowed loading “heavy” content like out/pictures/ and out/media/ from a different URL. That way one could run something like lighttpd on a different port, or a completely different machine and leave apache2 alone to take care of the php/mysql related stuff.

Hi Ashant,
sorry to tell you but this thread is ages ago. Of course, as lighttpd cannot handle .htaccess files, the syscheck has to be re-worked for this purpose.
About outsourcing the pictures to a lighttpd server is already working fine - quite out of the box. This feature was already introduced with version 4.1.2:

Hey Ashant, as far as i rember Avenger managed an option for the confic.inc.php to load images from a different host.
Hi,
have a look at the link I posted. It’s a native feature since 4.1.2

We have been able to “outsource” pics and media files to NGINX in following fashion:

I’ll be happy to discuss any of these solutions with forum members.

FYI.
