What about lighttpd?

suutsuut Member

Ten years ago, I was using lighttpd, and now I am using caddy. Is there still someone using lightpd?
Lighttpd 1.4 is as sturdy as Apache 2.4. :/

    lighttpd... what a blast from the past.

    Solusvm used to deploy slaves and masters with that a few years ago, and then switched to Apache w/ php-fpm.

    The popularity contest on ubuntu was canceled, it would have come in "handy" (ahah) to see who's got it bigger between lighttpd and apache. Why was it canceled I ask.

    I'm using one instance of lighttpd. Nothing fantastic, but works ok.

    Slava Cokainee!

    PHP + Apache makes me feel afraid in the dark. With that configuration you can shot in the dark and still hit a cluster of CVEs.

    What I like about the stack is how easy it is to casually toss valid security overrides in .htaccess to secure things that might otherwise be vulnerable. As opposed to having to build it into configs where the web server won't even start if you screw it up.

    Still use it, changed briefly to nginx, but the config syntax and logic there is a total headache, was so relieved to go back to Lighttpd.

    My mistake, Nginx indeed :)
