Lighttpd and nonexistent directories

[mike]

switch to nginx :) this works great for me :p


http {
        include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
        default_type application/octet-stream;
        sendfile on;
        keepalive_timeout 0;
        tcp_nodelay on;
        client_max_body_size 251m;
        client_body_temp_path /var/mogdata/.tmp;
        server_tokens off;
        server {
                listen 7500;
                server_name localhost;
                charset utf-8;
                location / {
                        root /var/mogdata/;
                        dav_methods put delete mkcol copy move;
                        dav_access user:rw group:rw all:r;
                        # not sure if this is needed
                        create_full_put_path on;
                }
                # these are not right
                error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
                location /50x.html {
                        root html;
                }
        }
}
