A couple of more points, apache with libapache2-mod-php requires the slower pre-forking version of apache and because that module is always loaded for every access it makes sense to use the much faster and lighter nginx frontend to deliver static files and then proxy to apache just for php. Also, a lot of web apps expect, or are easier, to use a .htaccess file which nginx does not handle. As for running webadmin, and perhaps sqwebmail, the simplest solution is to use a dedicated instance of lighthttpd on another port (assuming nginx is already in use on 80/443). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
