Help configuring lighttpd Topic is solved

[lanznaster]

Is there a way to just install lighttpd?

[Joulinar]

Lighttpd can be installed using dietpi-software. Software ID 84

Code: Select all

 [*] 84  Lighttpd: webserver

[lanznaster]

That was my bad, since lighttpd is the selected choice as webserver, I tought it was only installed once something that need a webserver was installed.

I'm not sure what am I doing worg now, after the fresh install on this RP3, I've copied the lighttpd.conf settings, only adding configurations. Like adding the the mod_proxy in the server.modules , and the endpoint settings after all default cofiguration, like the example I gave in the first post.

After that I've changed the port fowarding on my router to this new install.

When I try to open one of those I get ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Is there something that I'm not doing?

EDIT: I also did

Code: Select all

service lighttpd force-reload 

after the changes

Here is my lighttpd.conf

Hi,

usually there is no need to change default configuration. Just simply activate the mod by creating a symlink from

Code: Select all

/etc/lighttpd/conf-available/10-proxy.conf

to

Code: Select all

/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/10-proxy.conf

That's how all other models and configs are activated on DietPi

Code: Select all

root@DietPi4:~# ls -ls /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled
total 0
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jan 18  2020 10-fastcgi.conf -> ../conf-available/10-fastcgi.conf

10-proxy.conf contains some examples alredy

Hi,

Thanks for the info, but the results are the same

Code: Select all

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

server.modules   += ( "mod_proxy" )

}

And the symlink:

Code: Select all

0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Nov 16 18:53 99-unconfigured.conf -> ../conf-available/99-unconfigured.conf

Still have the "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED" error when triying to open in a browser.

Am I missing something?

[Joulinar]

ok i did a test on my RPi3B+ with lighttpd, sonarr and radarr. Basically I used your configuration and it's working fine

I did a fresh installation without any configuration changes.

1. activated 10-proxy.conf

   Code: Select all

   root@DietPi3:/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled# ls -la
   total 8
   drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 17 15:47 .
   drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Nov 17 14:07 ..
   lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   33 Nov 17 14:07 10-fastcgi.conf -> ../conf-available/10-fastcgi.conf
   lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   31 Nov 17 15:47 10-proxy.conf -> ../conf-available/10-proxy.conf
   lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   37 Nov 17 14:07 15-fastcgi-php.conf -> ../conf-available/15-fastcgi-php.conf
   lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   38 Nov 17 14:03 99-unconfigured.conf -> ../conf-available/99-unconfigured.conf

2. configured 10-proxy.conf

   Code: Select all

   # /usr/share/doc/lighttpd/proxy.txt
   
   server.modules   += ( "mod_proxy" )
   
   ## Balance algorithm, possible values are: "hash", "round-robin" or "fair" (default)
   # proxy.balance     = "hash"
   
   
   ## Redirect all queries to files ending with ".php" to 192.168.0.101:80
   #proxy.server     = ( ".php" =>
   #                     (
   #                       ( "host" => "192.168.0.101",
   #                         "port" => 80
   #                       )
   #                     )
   #                    )
   
   ## Redirect all connections on www.example.com to 10.0.0.1{0,1,2,3}
   #$HTTP["host"] == "www.example.com" {
   #  proxy.balance = "hash"
   #  proxy.server  = ( "" => ( ( "host" => "10.0.0.10" ),
   #                            ( "host" => "10.0.0.11" ),
   #                            ( "host" => "10.0.0.12" ),
   #                            ( "host" => "10.0.0.13" ) ) )
   #}
   $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/sonarr($|/)" {
           proxy.server  = ( "" =>
           (( "host" => "127.0.0.1", "port" => 8989 ))
       )
   }
   
   $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/radarr($|/)" {
           proxy.server  = ( "" =>
           (( "host" => "127.0.0.1", "port" => 7878 ))
       )
   }
   

3. changed base URL in radarr and sonarr
4. restarted all services

Did you changed base URL on both application GUI's??

Below some screenshots showing the URL without port and the changed URL Base

[lanznaster]

I have it lighttpd working on the same machine with these configurations. I've did a fresh dietpi install on a RPI that I wasnt using, to try the new header thing, since it only works with buster.

When I changed the configs to the new installation, and change the port foward in the router to point to the new install I get the error I mentioned.

That is why I found this "issue" strange. The same configs are working on the "original", but old , installation.

[lanznaster]

And thanks for trying to help

[Joulinar]

I continued playing with it and managed to get access from internet by just switching port forwarding on my router. As well HTTPS is working fine. Do you use the default lighttpd.conf still? Or did you modified anything? To exclude port fowarding, did you checked if you are able to reach lighttpd Welcome Page, by just using your URL without any /radarr or /sonarr patch?
