Package:lighttpd
Version:stable,now 1.4.45-1 amd64 [installed]

OS : Debian GNU/Linux 9.5 (stretch)

I have installed lighttpd, if i do : http://<server-ip>/index.html it is
working as expected.
Then i have enabled CGI : sudo lighttpd-enable-mod cgi
i have place a simple "hello.py" (chmod +x) in /usr/lib/cgi-bin
http://<server-ip>/cgi-bin/hello.py gives a 404 Error

i have edit the "/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/10-cgi.conf" file :

# /usr/share/doc/lighttpd/cgi.txt

server.modules += ( "mod_cgi" )

$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/cgi-bin/" {
        alias.url += ( "/cgi-bin/" => "/var/www/cgi-bin" )
        cgi.assign = (
                ".py"  => "/usr/bin/python",
        )
}

i have make a directory "cgi-bin" in /var/www and place the hello.py there
http://<server-ip>/cgi-bin/hello.py gives Error 404

Really frustrating, im out of ideas how to solve this.

Package: lighttpd

user error

Use:
alias.url += ( "/cgi-bin/" => "/var/www/cgi-bin/" )

Note the trailing slashes on both pieces of the alias.

/var/www/cgi-binhello.py is unlikely to exist, resulting
in 404 Not Found, whereas /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.py exists.
