On the Lighttpd forums, most former Apache administrators ask how they can adapt their rewrite rules to work with Lighttpd. There is no program (yet) to do this, but here are some typical constructs and advice on how to do that in Lighttpd lingua:
|
Apache |
Lighttpd |
|---|---|
|
LoadModule "rewrite_module" RewriteEngine on |
server.modules = (..., "mod_rewrite", "mod_redirect", ...) |
|
# A simple rewrite RewriteRule ^from_here(.*)/to_there$1 |
# refer to Chapter 2 url.rewrite = ("^/from_here" => "to_there") |
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} me\..* RewriteRule ^/(.*) /me/$1 |
$HTTP["host"] =~ "me\..*" { url.rewrite = ( "^/" => "/me/" } |
|
# Redirecting a single file RewriteRule move.html target.html [R] |
url.redirect = ( "move.html" => "target.html") |
|
# Solving the trailing slash problem RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule (.*) $1/ |
# nothing to do here. Lighttpd does not # have this problem. |
|
# Redirecting failed web pages to xyz.com RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule... |
