PunBB with lighttpd?

Is anyone running [URL=http://www.punbb.org/]PunBB[/URL] with lighttpd? If so, what packages do you need besides lighttpd? Thanks.

You shouldn't need that much.  Php(already with sqlite support).  Is there more to it?  PunBB is pretty simple.

Re: PunBB with lighttpd?

Yes, I run it.
you need lighttpd, php-cgi, some sql database (I believe punbb supports mysql, postgres, and sqlite), and the punbb download. I also use eaccelerator and fastcgi (prespawn) to make it extra zippy..zing!

phrakture & medicated; thanks. cactus, I couldn't find php-cgi & sqlite in the repository (not found in sync db). Do I have to compile it? Could you kindly provide your configuration files (lighttpd, php-cgi & sql)? Thanks.

Re: PunBB with lighttpd?

Lighttpd for both ssl and non-ssl

disregard the ssl portion for the most part, as there is a new way to do it (see the ssl section commented out in the lighttpd.conf file).

I dont use sqlite, so I cant give you much help there. I just use mysql.
php-cgi is not in the repos yet. I have it in my personal repo, and ..*checks aur*....ack. never uploaded it to aur. Anyway, the pkgbuild for php-cgi is here and the binary is here.
