I used newer libraries in some cases (and mysql 5.0) and everything
worked
great until the end when lighttpd wouldn’t start. I finally figured out
that Lighty 1.4.9 has a problem working with rails out-of-the-box. See
ticket http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/ticket/487 for more info.
Maybe this will help someone else… and thanks Ezra!

Zack-
Thanks for the kind words. I need to update a few things in that
tutorial But you are correct, in lighttpd1.4.9 you need the full
path to the public folder and the dicpatch.fcgi. The script/serer
command generates a lighttpd.conf file in RAILS_ROOT/config/
lighttpd.conf that uses relative paths. I think there is a ticket for
this somewhere but for now you need to manually edit the config file
after it gets generated the first time and add the full paths to your
stuff.
