呵呵！觉得有必要把今晚的装lighttpd的经验和过程给记录下来！ 第一次写这样的文章，有什么不足的地方请高手们指出并给与修正！下面开始！

第一步：系统的安装！ 菜鸟的朋友们，可以先去linux系统的初级教程，再来看我的文章！

跳过。我用的是CentOS5.5的！

第二步：下载mysql并安装，地址是：http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html#downloads(需要用邮箱注册)，现在最新版是                           5.1.54 的，我用的是5.0.56。

#  /usr/sbin/groupadd mysql

#  /usr/sbin/useradd   mysql  mysql

#  tar -xzvf  mysql-5.0.56.tar.gz

# cd  mysql-5.0.56

#./configure  --prefix=/opt/mysql   --with-ldflags-client=-all-static  --with-ldflags-mysqld=-all-static   --with-assembler  --with-unix-socket-path=/opt/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock    --with-thread-safe-client  --with-mysqld-user=mysql     -with-extra-charsets=utf8,gbk,gb2312     --with-charset=utf8              (还有很多参数，读者可以根据自己的实际需要，带上哪些参数)。

#make  &&  make  install

安装完成之后要做的事情：

1.拷贝mysql配置文件到/etc目录下，根据你的服务器的配置选择相应的配置文件，然后重名为my.cnf。

#cp  support-files/my-medium.cnf   /etc/my.cnf

2.建立初始化数据库：

#cd   /opt/mysql

#./bin/mysql_install_db

3.更改相关目录的权限：

# chown  -R   root   .

# chgrp    -R   mysql   .

# chown    -R   mysql   var

看看能不能启动起来：

#  /opt/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf &

第三步 ：从lighttpd官方网站上下载lighttpd软件，下载地址是：

http://download.lighttpd.net/lighttpd/releases-1.4.x/lighttpd-1.4.28.tar.gz

现在最新版本的是1.4.28的，下载下来之后对其进行解压：

# groupadd  lighttpd

#useradd  -s  /sbin/nologin  -M -g lighttpd  lighttpd

#tar  -xzvf  lighttpd-1.4.28.tar.gz

#cd lighttpd-1.4.28

#./configure  --prefix=/opt/lighttpd  --with-pcre    --with-openssl    --with-mysql=/opt/mysql/bin/mysql_config

# make && make install

 在第二步中要注意的有几点：

a、--with-pcre  ：lighttpd需要pcre的支持，你要确定你的系统已经装了pcre和pcre-devel软件包！不然他会报错的！

#yum   install   pcre

#yum install pcre-devel

b、--with-openssl ：这个参数根据你的需要选择加不是不加，如果需要ssl支持的话，那你要确定你的系统中已经装了openssl和openssl-devel。

#yum  install  openssl

#yum  install  openssl-devel

c、--with-mysql=/opt/mysql/bin/mysql_config  :  这个参数要特别注意，本人刚开始装的时候，误认为是mysql的安装目录，其实不是的，这里是mysql_config文件的路径。

d、如果你遇到了bzip2的错误，你再把bzip2和bzip2-devel两个软件包装上。

#yum install bzip2

#yum  install  bzip2-devel

除了上述几个错误，基本上没有其他错误了！即使有其他的错误，只要能看得懂上面的错误提示，也没有什么大问题！安装完成之后，需要拷贝几个文件：

#  cd  lighttpd-1.4.28/doc/config

#mkdir -p /opt/lighttpd/etc

#  cp  lighttpd.conf  /opt/lighttpd/etc/

#  cp  modules.conf  /opt/lighttpd/etc

# cp  -a  conf.d/  /opt/lighttpd/etc

# mkdir  -p /opt/lighttpd/run

# mkdir  -p  /opt/lighttpd/cache

# mkdir  -p  /opt/lighttpd/logs

# chown -R  lighttpd  /opt/lighttpd/

第四步：接下来，再安装php，下载地址是：http://cn.php.net/get/php-5.3.5.tar.gz/from/this/mirror，最新版的是5.3.5的，我用的是5.2.16                 的。安装php之前要做一些准备：（需要的软件包很多，因为我们不是实际应用，所以我有的软件包没提到）基本的几个软件包有                 以下几个：jpeg和jpeg-devel ,png  和png-devel，freetype和freetype-devel，libxml2和libxml2-devel，gd和gd-devel，libiconv，                  zlib和zlibdevel，mhash，libmcrypt等等。

可以用yum安装的几个就不讲了。下面几个编译安装的（有的可以不安装的！）

#  tar zxvf libiconv-1.13.tar.gz

#  cd libiconv-1.13/

# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local

#  make

#  make install

#   cd ../

#  tar zxvf libmcrypt-2.5.8.tar.gz

#  cd libmcrypt-2.5.8/

# ./configure

#  make  &&  make install

#  /sbin/ldconfig

#  cd libltdl/

# ./configure --enable-ltdl-install

#  make  &&  make install

#   cd http://www.cnblogs.com/

#   tar zxvf mhash-0.9.9.9.tar.gz

#  cd mhash-0.9.9.9/

# ./configure

# make  &&  make install

在php安装过程中报错的时候，看它是不是提示哪个包没有安装，如是这样的话，就缺哪个软件包就安装哪个咯！安装php：

# tar -xzvf php-5.2.16.tar.gz

给 php打个补丁（php-5.2.16-fpm-0.5.14.diff.gz：php进程管理器）下载地址：

http://php-fpm.org/downloads/php-5.2.16-fpm-0.5.14.diff.gz

#  gzip -cd php-5.2.16-fpm-0.5.14.diff.gz > patch -d php-5.2.16 -p1

# cd php-5.2.16

#  ./configure  --prefix=/opt/php --with-config-file-path=/opt/php/etc --with-mysql=/opt/mysql --with-mysqli=/opt/mysql/bin/mysql_config --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local --with-freetype-dir --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir --with-zlib --with-libxml-dir=/usr --enable-xml --disable-rpath --enable-discard-path --enable-safe-mode --enable-bcmath --enable-shmop --enable-sysvsem --enable-inline-optimization --with-curl --enable-mbregex --enable-fastcgi --enable-fpm --enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-mbstring --with-mcrypt --with-gd --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-openssl --with-mhash --enable-pcntl --enable-sockets

#  make  && make install

第五步：一些基本的配置：lighttpd 主配置文件lighttpd.conf文件的大致内容如下（红色代表修改过，蓝色代表要注意一下配置）：

##
##server.use-ipv6 = "enable"##
## bind to a specific IP
##server.bind = "192.168.1.2"##
## Run as a different username/groupname.

##
##  Tuning/Performance
## --------------------
##
## corresponding documentation:
## http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/performance.html
##
## set the event-handler (read the performance section in the manual)
##
## possible options on linux are:
#### select
## poll
## linux-sysepoll
##
## linux-sysepoll is recommended on kernel 2.6.
##
server.event-handler = "linux-sysepoll"####
server.network-backend = "linux-sendfile"##
server.max-fds = 2048##
## Stat() call caching.
##
## lighttpd can utilize FAM/Gamin to cache stat call.
##
## possible values are:
## disable, simple or fam.
##
server.stat-cache-engine = "simple"##
## Fine tuning for the request handling
##
## max-connections == max-fds/2 (maybe /3)
## means the other file handles are used for fastcgi/files
##server.max-connections = 1024##
## How many seconds to keep a keep-alive connection open,
## until we consider it idle.
##
## Default: 5
###server.max-keep-alive-idle = 5index-file.names += ("index.xhtml", "index.html", "index.htm", "default.htm", "index.php"
)##
## deny access the file-extensions
##
## ~    is for backupfiles from vi, emacs, joe, ...
## .inc is often used for code includes which should in general not be part
##      of the document-root
url.access-deny             = ( "~", ".inc" )##
## disable range requests for pdf files
## workaround for a bug in the Acrobat Reader plugin.
####$HTTP["url"] =~ "\.pdf$" {

对modules.conf要取消需要用到模块的注释，mod_rewrite，mod_access，mod_fastcgi，

mod_simple_vhost，mod_cgi，mod_compress，mod_accesslog是一般需要用到的。modules.conf文件内容如下：

#######################################################################
##
##  Modules to load
## -----------------
##
## at least mod_access and mod_accesslog should be loaded
## all other module should only be loaded if really neccesary
##
## - saves some time
## - saves memory
##
## the default module set contains:
##
## "mod_indexfile", "mod_dirlisting", "mod_staticfile"
##
## you dont have to include those modules in your list
##
## Modules, which are pulled in via conf.d/*.conf
##
## NOTE: the order of modules is important.
##
## - mod_accesslog     -> conf.d/access_log.conf
## - mod_compress      -> conf.d/compress.conf
## - mod_status        -> conf.d/status.conf
## - mod_webdav        -> conf.d/webdav.conf
## - mod_cml           -> conf.d/cml.conf
## - mod_evhost        -> conf.d/evhost.conf
## - mod_simple_vhost  -> conf.d/simple_vhost.conf
## - mod_mysql_vhost   -> conf.d/mysql_vhost.conf
## - mod_trigger_b4_dl -> conf.d/trigger_b4_dl.conf
## - mod_userdir       -> conf.d/userdir.conf
## - mod_rrdtool       -> conf.d/rrdtool.conf
## - mod_ssi           -> conf.d/ssi.conf
## - mod_cgi           -> conf.d/cgi.conf
## - mod_scgi          -> conf.d/scgi.conf
## - mod_fastcgi       -> conf.d/fastcgi.conf
## - mod_proxy         -> conf.d/proxy.conf
## - mod_secdownload   -> conf.d/secdownload.conf
## - mod_expire        -> conf.d/expire.conf

##  Config for various Modules

·····························

配置lighttpd和php和通信（fastcgi）：

# vi /opt/lighttpd/etc/conf.d/fastcgi.conf

#######################################################################

##
##  FastCGI Module
## ---------------
##
## http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/fastcgi.html
##
server.modules += ( "mod_fastcgi" )##
## PHP Example
##For PHP don't forget to set cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1 in the php.ini.##
## The number of php processes you will get can be easily calculated:

·······················

······················

## chrooted webserver + external PHP
##
## $ spawn-fcgi -f /usr/bin/php-cgi -p 2000 -a 127.0.0.1 -C 8
##
## webserver chrooted to /srv/www/
## php running outside the chroot

fastcgi.server = ( ".php" => (( "host" => "127.0.0.1","port" => "9000","docroot" => "/opt/lighttpd/htdocs/")))#server.chroot = "/opt/lighttpd"
#server.document-root = "/opt/lighttpd/htdocs/"
