I got this strange problem with my Rails app here in lighttpd…
sometimes it appears and sometimes it doesn’t. When it does appear, and
I try to refresh it from Firefox, it won’t appear until I clear my
cache.
Huh?
lighttpd_error.log says “(response.c.467) Path:
/services/httpd/mysite.com/www/public/dispatch.fcgi – file found” which
is strange, because the file is there, and if it was a permission
problem it probably wouldn’t display at all.
Here is my configuration:
server.modules = ( “mod_access”, “mod_accesslog”, “mod_rewrite”,
“mod_redirect”, “mod_fastcgi” )
server.document-root = “/usr/local/www”
server.errorlog = “/var/log/lighttpd_error.log”
debug.log-request-handling = “enable”
index-file.names = ( “index.html” )
mimetype.assign = (

   server.document-root = “/services/httpd/mysite.com/www/public”

Thanks.
