CakePHP y lighttpd

  • english
  • spanish

I’ve been busy the last couple of days with a web project I’m developing using CakePHP, and I wanted to use lighttpd as the web server. CakePHP comes with the typical .htaccess with Apache’s mod_rewrite rules, that need to be converted to lighty’s format. The solution can be found here, 3rd comment:

Lighttpd and CakePHP setup in subdirectories

url.rewrite-once = (
"/(.*)\.(.*)" => "$0",
"/(css|files|img|js)/" => "$0",
"^/([^.]+)$" => "/index.php?url=$1"
)
