Hi all,

Totally new to radiant - in fact, I’m just about ready to install it on  
my  
newest domain on textdrive.

I had a hell of a time getting the routing working for typo.

Any tips on getting radiant to work from www.mydomain.tld/ even  
though radiant is installed in a subdirectory of my domain’s web folder?

I’m hoping someone with experience using radiant on textdrive might just  
tell me/us how it’s done (ahem - isn’t [radiantcms.com](http://radiantcms.com) on textdrive?).

🙂

TIA,  
Steve

Steve,

Use the Textdrive tutorial for Rails applications… it’s how I set mine  
up  
([seancribbs.com](http://seancribbs.com)). I believe it’s chapter 9 of the manuals. I highly  
suggest you contact support about getting a port for lighttpd as I had  
intermittent problems and slow response times from Apache. If you need  
specific help, they’re pretty knowledgeable and quick to answer.

Cheers,

Sean C.

I used the Textdrive tutorial myself with Lighttpd. It’s good stuff.
