Lighttpd on Mac 10.5 - cannot find lighttpd.conf

I just did a clean build and reinstall of lighttpd 1.4.20 on Mac OS X 10.5 and I can't find the config file.

My goal was to install lighty in one directory, not distribute, so I used the following commands successfully:

./configure --prefix="/usr/local/lighttpd"
sudo make clean
sudo make

      

This successfully puts binaries and libraries in / usr / local / lighttpd / as I wanted. However, the config file was not installed in /usr/local/lighttpd/doc/lightppd.conf as stated in the INSTALL doc.

Any idea where this would be? Or am I missing the ./configure option?

Stobor's solution should help you (just copy $ SOURCEDIR / doc / lighttpd.conf to / usr / local / etc / or wherever you like, then point in the command line where the file is located whenever you start lighttpd.)



If you install things like this a lot , you might want to take a look at MacPorts . I note that they have lighttpd, both 1.4.26 and 1.5.0 (devel). I am very happy with using MacPorts to install UNIXy files on a Powerbook G4 running Mac OS X 10.5.

As I read it, the INSTALL file seems like you need to manually create the lighttpd.conf file by copying one from $ SOURCEDIR / doc / lighttpd.conf and not $ INSTALLDIR / doc / lighttpd.conf - did you look there?
