Lighttpd + apache2 + directadmin CP 2007/05/24 19:26

Karma: 0

Nice articles lately. your doing a good job Ircmaxell

Using Page-cache on many of my projects. anyway..

If you wrote a solution to get Lighttpd as frontend or backend proxy with apache2, where lighttpd takes all the static and streaming content.

You did wrote something about the proxy solution in on of your articles, but its targeted a single webadress.

Like me, and probally others need a solution that works with the Apache2 Virtual host.

Atleast that is what i am looking for hehe.
Directadmin is one the simplest and easiest to modify Hosting Controlpanels i have used.

If you do make a howto onthis, you should post it on the DA forums
www.directadmin.com/forum

Also added your 80x15 Banner in my Powered By Module to Joomla.
you can see it at http://blorp.info still v.1.0 and not perfect.
Learning by doing

Regards
Chris

I have not used DirectAdmin, although I have heard great things about it. I am currently using ISPConfig on my new server, and am starting to get used to it. On my new server, I'm not even running Apache at all! Actually, on this server I'm barely running Apache. The only thing Apache runs is the Cpanel stuff (via proxy from Lighttpd).

As for Virtual hosts, you can write a simple proxy, something like this...

Code:


 
$HTTP["url"] ~= "(\.html|\.php|/|\?)" {
server.proxy = ("" => (
  "host"=>"localhost",
  "port"=>8080)
)
}

Oh, and check out your site in IE6... Wow... Are you really using All those OS's?

Isnt it the opposite of what you wrote? frontend/backend switch

And you said you had some hosting plans etc.. let me know if you need a partner in crime.

Just got a Xeon server with no usage at all

Lol... It is the opposite, kinda. They are having lighttpd server static content (just like I wrote), but they had Apache as the front end. I think that's inefficient (seeing as Lighttpd can handle WAY more requests/second than Apache, with less resources)... http://www.bagsofcrap.com http://www.nbvfc.org

Ill try it soon, just need to be done at work. 14 hours already..

hehehe 15-20 servers your not planning on earning money at first then

Let me know if you need to jump over to a bigger host.
I have no problem hosting yours for some help now and then.
But i guess you need your own enviorment to work on

My Xeon baby with 1Gbit link is bored

I am actually looking fora co-admin,since i sometimes need to go away for weeks

And again good work you will get very popular

Well, picture a hosting system that provides fault tollerance, redundancy, and instant expandability all in one package. To be able to withstand going from needing a single celeron processor today, to needing 10 loadballanced Xeon servers tomorrow... All with a click of a mouse!!! http://www.bagsofcrap.com http://www.nbvfc.org
