Ok everyone,
I tried my best and this is as far as I got. I can see the “Welcome
Rails” screen when I type in 127.0.0.1. But I can’t see any of my
controller/views. Here is my lighttpd-inc.conf file. It is currently
located in “C:\Program Files\LightTPD\conf”
LightTPD Configuration file (INCLUDE)
Use it as a base for LightTPD 1.0.0 and above.

############ Options you really have to take care of
####################
modules to load
at least mod_access and mod_accesslog should be loaded
all other module should only be loaded if really neccesary
- saves some time
- saves memory

"mod_status",
“mod_trigger_b4_dl”,

)
a static document-root, for virtual-hosting take look at the
server.virtual-* options
server.document-root = “C:\rails\timetracker\public”
#directory for file uploads
server.upload-dirs = ( “TMP/” )
files to check for if …/ is requested
index-file.names = ( “index.php”, “index.pl”, “index.cgi”,
“index.html”, “index.htm”, “default.htm”
)
set the event-handler (read the performance section in the manual)
server.event-handler = “freebsd-kqueue” # needed on OS X
from webpage
server.errorlog =
“C:\rails\timetracker\log\lighttpd-errors.log”
accesslog.filename =
“C:\rails\timetracker\log\lighttpd-access.log”
mimetype mapping
mimetype.assign = (
“.pdf” => “application/pdf”,
“.sig” => “application/pgp-signature”,
“.spl” => “application/futuresplash”,
“.class” => “application/octet-stream”,
“.ps” => “application/postscript”,

)
Use the “Content-Type” extended attribute to obtain mime type if
possible
mimetype.use-xattr = “enable”
deny access the file-extensions
~ is for backupfiles from vi, emacs, joe, …
.inc is often used for code includes which should in general not be
part
of the document-root
url.access-deny = ( “~”, “.inc” )
$HTTP[“url”] =~ “.pdf$” {
server.range-requests = “disable”
}
which extensions should not be handle via static-file transfer
.php, .pl, .fcgi are most often handled by mod_fastcgi or mod_cgi
static-file.exclude-extensions = ( “.php”, “.pl”, “.cgi”, “.fcgi”,
“.scgi” )
######### Options that are good to be but not neccesary to be changed
#######
bind to port (default: 80)
#server.port = 81
bind to localhost (default: all interfaces)
#server.bind = “mydomain.org”
error-handler for status 404

virtual hosts
If you want name-based virtual hosting add the next three settings
and load
mod_simple_vhost
document-root =
virtual-server-root + virtual-server-default-host +
virtual-server-docroot
or
virtual-server-root + http-host + virtual-server-docroot
#simple-vhost.server-root = “HTDOCS/”
#simple-vhost.default-host = “vhost.mydomain.org”
#simple-vhost.document-root = “/vhost/”
alias
#alias.url = ( “/logs” => “logs” )
Format: .html
-> …/status-404.html for ‘File not found’
#server.errorfile-prefix = “errors/status-”
virtual directory listings
dir-listing.activate = “enable”
#dir-listing.encoding = “iso-8859-2”
#dir-listing.external-css = “style/oldstyle.css”
enable debugging
#debug.log-request-header = “enable”
#debug.log-response-header = “enable”
#debug.log-request-handling = “enable”
#debug.log-file-not-found = “enable”
only root can use these options
chroot() to directory (default: no chroot() )
#server.chroot = “/”
change uid to (default: don’t care)
#server.username = “wwwrun”
change uid to (default: don’t care)
#server.groupname = “wwwrun”
compress module
#compress.cache-dir = “tmp/”
#compress.filetype = (“text/plain”, “text/html”)
proxy module
read proxy.txt for more info

“socket” =>
“TMP/php-fastcgi.socket”,
“bin-path” => “PHP/php-cgi.exe”
)

#cgi.assign = ( “.php” => “PHP/php-cgi.exe”,
“.pl” => “Perl/perl.exe”,
“.cgi” => “Perl/perl.exe” )
scgi.server = ( “dispatch.scgi” => ((

url handling modules (rewrite, redirect, access)
#url.rewrite = ( “^/$” => “/server-status” )
#url.redirect = ( “^/wishlist/(.+)” =>
“http://www.123.org/$1” )
both rewrite/redirect support back reference to regex conditional
using %n
#$HTTP[“host”] =~ “^www.(.*)” {
url.redirect = ( “^/(.*)” => “http://%1/$1” )
#}
define a pattern for the host url finding
%% => % sign
%0 => domain name + tld
%1 => tld
%2 => domain name without tld
%3 => subdomain 1 name
%4 => subdomain 2 name
#evhost.path-pattern = “HTDOCS/”
expire module

“/asdhas/” => “access plus 1 seconds 2 minutes”)

trigger-before-download.trigger-url = “^/trigger/”
trigger-before-download.download-url = “^/download/”
trigger-before-download.trigger-timeout = 10
for mod_cml
don’t forget to add index.cml to server.indexfiles
cml.extension = “.cml”
cml.memcache-hosts = ( “127.0.0.1:11211” )
variable usage:
variable name without “.” is auto prefixed by “var.” and becomes
“var.bar”
#bar = 1
#var.mystring = “foo”
integer add
#bar += 1
string concat, with integer cast as string, result: “www.foo1.com”
#server.name = “www.” + mystring + var.bar + “.com”
array merge
#index-file.names = (foo + “.php”) + index-file.names
#index-file.names += (foo + “.php”)
include
#include “conf/lighttpd-ext.conf”
same as above if you run: “lighttpd -f conf\lighttpd.conf”
#include “lighttpd-ext.conf”
include_shell
#include_shell “echo var.a=1”
the above is same as:
#var.a=1
Here is my SCGI.yaml.

:env: development
I want to use lighttpd during development because I want to test SSL.
Can anyone help me answer the question why I am not able to see my
views. I am developing in Windows if that matters. Also using the most
current lighttpd and scgi. Thanks for your help.
