Hi - I run rails on OS X Tiger. I downloaded and built/installed from source the lighttpd server. It''s stored in /usr/local/sbin which is in my .bash_profile PATH Office:~ mengelhart$ which lighttpd /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd I''ve updated to the Rails RC4 release as per the instructions and everything is fine except that Webrick is the app server that gets launched. Any idea why script/server won''t launch lighttpd? Also the documentation says that a lighttpd.conf is installed into config but I don''t see it there. I''ve tried even creating a whole new project and it will only lauch Webrick. Thanks Mike
I did this very thing today, and it worked. Two things come to mind: 1) Do you have the prce libs installed? You have to do this before configuring and installing lighty. 2) Did you try ruby script/server lighttpd to see if you can force lighty to run? Here is a post, while a little out of date, that helped me: http://theexciter.com/articles/installing-lighttpd-on-osx moosebrookfarm wrote:> Hi - > > I run rails on OS X Tiger.

Probably a really dumb question but I do this all the time so... After you added your path to .bash_profile, did you remember to login again? :-) Sean On Nov 19, 2005, at 7:30 AM, Brad Daily wrote:> I did this very thing today, and it worked.

Actually I didn''t have prce libs or fcgi installed! I followed the instructions on that link and it works perfectly. Thank you.
