    text
    copied!<p>I'm playing about with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighttpd" rel="nofollow noreferrer">lighttpd</a> on a small virtual private server. I two domains pointing to the server. I am using the latest version of lighttpd and mod_evhost on Ubuntu 8.10.</p> <ol> <li><p>I'm trying to set up a rule such that if anyone requests <strong>domain.com</strong> or <strong>www.domain.com</strong> they get served from <em>/webroot/domain.com/www/</em></p></li> <li><p>Similarly, if anyone requests <strong>sub.domain.com</strong> they get served from <em>/webroot/domain.com/sub/</em></p></li> <li><p>If people requests <strong>fake.domain.com</strong> (where <em>/webroot/domain.com/fake/</em> does not exist) I would like them served from <em>/webroot/domain.com/www/</em></p></li> </ol> <p>The third requirement isn't quite so important, I can deal with people requesting subdomains that don't exist being served from the server document root of <em>/webroot/server.com/www/</em> even if they requested <strong>fake.domain.com</strong></p> <p>I've included the relevant parts of my lighttpd.conf file below:</p> <pre><code>server.document-root = "/webroot/server.com/www/" // regex to match sub.domain.com $HTTP["host"] =~ "\b[a-zA-Z]\w*\.\b[a-zA-Z]\w*\.\b[a-zA-Z]\w*" { evhost.path-pattern = "/webroot/%0/%3/" } // regex to match domain.com $HTTP["host"] =~ "\b[a-zA-Z]\w*\.\b[a-zA-Z]\w*" { evhost.path-pattern = "/webroot/%0/www/" } </code></pre> <p>So where am I going wrong? At the moment, all requests to <strong>*.domain.com</strong> and <strong>domain.com</strong> are being served from <em>/webroot/domain.com/www/</em></p> <p>I'd appreciate any help you guys could offer and if I've left anything relevant out please tell me!</p> <p>Cheers, Rob</p>
