Adding PHP into Lighttpd Webserver
How do I configure php under Lighttpd?
PHP generally runs on a web server like lighttpd taking PHP code as its input and creating Web pages as output. FastCGI is a protocol for interfacing interactive programs with a web server. Lighttpd has mod_fastcgi to run php application.
Assuming that you have php installed (see these instructions on installing Lighttpd+MySQL+php5 under FreeBSD), open lighttpd.conf file:
# vi /usr/local/etc/lighttpd.conf
Make sure FASTCGI module is enabled:
server.modules += ( “mod_fastcgi” )
Now append following code
fastcgi.server = ( “.php” =>
( “localhost” =>
(
“socket” => “/tmp/php-fastcgi.socket”,
“bin-path” => “/usr/local/bin/php-cgi”
)
)
)
Save and close the file. Restart lighttpd:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/lighttpd restart

also might be worth mentioning to turn php_short_tag = On in the php.ini file if all you get is a blank php page (most stuff is written <? rather than <?php)
