Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.28-1
Severity: normal
To reproduce the issue, suppose that you are a developer of a web
application. Your application is written in PHP, and you use Subversion
to store the sources and the history of changes. You want to provide a
demo site and a bugtracker. For a bugtracker, you choose Trac. And you
decide to power the demo site and the bugtracker with Debian Squeeze and
lighttpd.
So, install lighttpd, trac, python-flup. Create the project environment
with trac-admin. Then save the following configuration snippet as
/etc/lighttpd/conf-available/50-trac.conf:
fastcgi.server += ("/trac" =>
((
"socket" => "/tmp/trac-fastcgi.sock",
"bin-path" => "/usr/share/pyshared/trac/web/fcgi_frontend.py",
"check-local" => "disable",
"max-procs" => 3,
"bin-environment" => ("TRAC_ENV" => "/srv/trac/myproject")
))
)
and enable it with lighttpd-enable-mod fastcgi trac. Restart lighttpd.
Hurrah, Trac works.
Now put your PHP scripts into the document root and enable PHP support
in lighttpd: lighttpd-enable-mod php-fastcgi. Hurrah, the demo site
works. But Trac shows a 404 error when you attempt to browse a source of
a PHP script using its subversion browser, i.e., visit an URL like
http://www.example.com/trac/browser/trunk/www/index.php
The URL looks like a PHP script, but it really isn't and thus should be
passed to Trac, not to PHP. Please make sure that php-cgi eats only real
PHP files, not all URLs ending in .php. Or, if this is impossible to do
generally, add a comment to 15-fastcgi-php.conf with a warning about
this issue and the actions the local admin has to do in order to resolve it.
