I've got Fonz's fun plug with lighttpd installed and confired to a specific port in the lighttpd.conf file, forwarded that port in my router, and it was working fine when pointing to a simple place-holder index.htm page that I created.

I replaced that index.htm page with another one, and now I can't get to the page any more...is there a need to reboot the DNS-323 to reset some pointer or another to the file? I haven't changed anything in the lighttpd.conf file except for the port number....can't figure out why it was working, and now isn't.

Any ideas/trouble-shooting advice appreciated. I've tried multiple versions of the index.htm file, including putting the original back, and nothing is working...

Thanks!

what port did you change to? did it happen to clash with the admin page port number (TCP 80)? Is lighttpd running in the first place (use ps to check).

DNS-323 Talker · 2007-06-15 17:19:41

Thanks, Shadowandy...I think my message above was confusing in retrospect. I changed the port number a while back, not recently. I didn't use 80.

I'll check and ensure lighttpd is running...good idea.

I replaced the FTP port number w/"#" signs above.

So it looks like lighttpd is running...see anything amiss?

BTW, what's this line doing?!

If I try to go to www.redsonic.com, I get a Network Solutions page with the following:

There's a log file somewhere (/mnt/HD_a2/www/logs, I think). Have a look what's inside.
Use "netstat -tln" to check if a port is "listening" or not (e.g. check when lighty is running and when it's not running).

DNS-323 Talker · 2007-06-15 18:21:05

Thanks, Fonz. Yes, the port I forwarded in the router for Lighttpd is listed as active. Then I killed lighttpd and ran netstat again and the lighttpd port was missing from the list. So it seems like it is listening to the port when lighttpd is running.

BTW...should I have this many ports listening? I have fun-plug installed, and FTP and Lighttpd runnning, and am using telnet.

Then it's running. Have a look at the logs, both error and access logs.
Also check permissions of the index file (chmod 0644 index.html, if in doubt)

DNS-323 Talker · 2007-06-16 06:20:44

I checked permissions, and the file was set to chmod 700. I changed it to 744. But still unable to access it via http.

Error log shows a lot of stops/starts...here's a section of it below. This section at the end seems odd...why would the service stop for over an hour this morning?

The access log only shows accesses from 23 May through May 30th...that doesn't make sense...why would it show no access in June?

DNS-323 Talker · 2007-06-18 20:44:50

Well, I solved teh problem...I deleted and then reinstated the http port forwarding on my router, and it works again. Not sure how it happened or what happened, but for some reason the port forwarding I had set up had stopped working, even though it was listed properly on the port forwarding page...

Hopefully it will keep working....

Another problem; what do I do to get rid of theese error messages when I try to UL "large" pictures to Gallery1?

Code:

2007-07-24 15:36:47: (connections.c.1080) denying upload as opening to temp-file for upload failed: /var/tmp/lighttpd-upload-U7LbUq No such file or directory

/MiK

fonz · 2007-07-25 15:19:35

It seems lighttpd wants to store large uploads in /var/tmp which does not exist on the DNS. Try the following workaround until I find out how to tell lighttpd to use a different temp directory:

Code:

mkdir -p /mnt/HD_a2/tmp
cd /var
ln -s /mnt/HD_a2/tmp

This should make lighttpd store uploaded files on disk.

MiK · 2007-07-25 16:34:33

Thanks, that worked

fonz · 2007-07-25 16:38:44

Just found out that there's a configuration option for this. Default is obviously:

Code:

server.upload-dirs = ( "/var/tmp" )

Adding this to the config (with a different path, of course) is probably the cleaner solution.
