Editor to share with you how to use Yum to install Lighttpd Web servers on CentOS and RHEL. I believe most people don't know much about it, so share this article for your reference. I hope you will gain a lot after reading this article. Let's learn about it together.

Lighttpd is a high-performance Web server suitable for running in a production environment. It is a highly optimized, secure, and very flexible Web server; compared to other Web servers, LightTPD uses very low memory and CPU. Its event-driven architecture is optimized for a large number of parallel connections (remain active)

Lighttpd provides support for some popular Web 2.0 sites. It provides a high-speed IO infrastructure that enables them to scale several times on the same hardware. This is developed in consideration of future networks, such as faster FastCGI, COMET compliance with mod_mailbox, asynchronous IO.

You can install Lighttpd on a RHEL-based system by following these steps.

Step 1: add an EPEL repository

The EPEL yum repository has the latest Lighttpd package, so first add the EPEL yum repository to your system.

# rpm-Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Step 2: install the LightTPD server

Install lighttpd using the yum package Manager

# yum install lighttpd lighttpd-fastcgiLoaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit SecurityLoading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.nbrc.ac.in * epel: mirrors.ispros.com.bd * extras: mirror.nbrc.ac.in * updates: mirror.nhanhoa.comSetting up Install ProcessResolving Dependencies-- > Running transaction check--- > Package lighttpd.i686 0vir 1.4.35-1.el6 will be installed--- > Package lighttpd-fastcgi.i686 0vir 1.4.35-1.el6 will be installed-- > Processing Dependency: spawn-fcgi for package: lighttpd-fastcgi-1.4. 35-1.el6.i686 1.el6 will be installed---> Running transaction check--- > Package spawn-fcgi.i686 0pur1.6.3-1.el6 will be installed-- > Finished Dependency ResolutionDependencies Resolved= Package Arch Version Repository Size=Installing: lighttpd i686 1.4.35-1.el6 epel 300k lighttpd-fastcgi i686 1.4.35-1.el6 epel 45 kInstalling for dependencies: spawn-fcgi i686 1.6.3-1.el6 epel 16 kTransaction Summary=Install 3 Package (s) Total download size: 361 kInstalled size: 818 kIs this ok [yUnip N]: yDownloading Packages : (1 kB 3): lighttpd-1.4.35-1.el6.i686.rpm | 300 kB 00:00 (2 pm 3): lighttpd-fastcgi-1.4.35-1.el6.i686.rpm | 45 kB 00:00 (3 pm 3): spawn-fcgi-1.6.3-1.el6.i686.rpm | | 16 kB 0015 00-| -Total 206kB/s | 361kB 00:01Running rpm_check_debugRunning Transaction TestTransaction Test SucceededRunning TransactionWarning: RPMDB altered outside of yum.** Found 1 pre-existing rpmdb problem (s) 'yum check' output follows:google-chrome-stable-34.0.1847.116-1.i386 has missing requires of libnss3.so (NSS_3.14.3) Installing: lighttpd-1.4.35-1.el6.i686 1 3 Installing: spawn-fcgi-1.6.3-1.el6.i686 2 Installing 3: lighttpd-fastcgi-1.4.35-1.el6.i686 3/3Installed: lighttpd.i686 0VOV 1.4.35-1.el6 lighttpd-fastcgi.i686 0VOV 1.4.35-1.el6Dependency Installed: spawn-fcgi.i686 0VOR 1.6.3-1.el6Complete!

Step 3: configure the LightTPD server

Before starting the lighttpd configuration, make sure that selinux is disabled on the system.

# getenforece

Now edit the Lighttpd configuration file / etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

Server.use-ipv6 = "disable" server.max-fds = 2048

Server.use-ipv6: setting this value to "diable" will allow the server to listen for IPv6 connections and disable IPv6 connections.

Server.max-fds Lighttpd is a single-threaded server whose main resource limit is the number of file descriptors, which is set to 1024 by default (on most systems). To handle high-traffic sites, you can set this to 2048.

Step 4: start the LightTPD server

Finally, start the lighttpd service with the following command

# service lighttpd start

To stop or restart the server, use the following command.

# service lighttpd stop# service lighttpd restart

Cause lighttpd to start when the server starts

# chkconfig lighttpd on above is all about the method of installing Lighttpd Web server on CentOS and RHEL using Yum. Thank you for reading!
