  Integrating eAccelerator Into PHP5 And Lighttpd (Debian Etch) This guide explains how to integrate eAccelerator into PHP5 and lighttpd on a Debian Etch system. From the eAccelerator project page: "eAccelerator is a free open-source PHP accelerator, optimizer, and dynamic content cache. It increases the performance of PHP scripts by caching them in their compiled state, so that the overhead of compiling is almost completely eliminated. It also optimizes scripts to speed up their execution. eAccelerator typically reduces server load and increases the speed of your PHP code by 1-10 times."

• Running Vhosts Under Separate UIDs/GIDs With Apache2 mpm-peruser On Debian Etch

  Author: Falko Timme • Tags: apache, debian, security • Comments: 0

  Running Vhosts Under Separate UIDs/GIDs With Apache2 mpm-peruser On Debian Etch This article explains how you can install and configure apache2-mpm-peruser on a Debian Etch server. apache2-mpm-peruser is an MPM (Multi-Processing Module) for the Apache 2 web server, very similar to apache2-mpm-itk, but faster (almost as fast as apache2-mpm-prefork). mpm-peruser allows you to run each of your vhosts under a separate UID and GID - in short, the scripts and configuration files for one vhost no longer have to be readable for all the other vhosts. It is based on metuxmpm, a working implementation of the perchild MPM. The result is a sane and secure web server environment for your users, without kludges like PHP's safe_mode.

• Creating Advanced MySQL-Based Virtual Hosts On Lighttpd (Debian Etch)

  Author: Falko Timme • Tags: debian, lighttpd • Comments: 1

  Creating Advanced MySQL-Based Virtual Hosts On Lighttpd (Debian Etch) This guide explains how you can create advanced virtual hosts on a lighttpd web server on Debian Etch that are stored in a MySQL database. The method described here does not use the lighttpd mod_mysql_vhost module, and unlike mod_mysql_vhost (which allows you to store only the hostname and document root of a vhost in a database), this method allows to store individual configuration directives for each vhost in the MySQL database.

• How To Save Traffic With mod_deflate On Lighttpd 1.4 (Debian Etch)

  Author: Falko Timme • Tags: debian, lighttpd • Comments: 0

  How To Save Traffic With mod_deflate On Lighttpd 1.4 (Debian Etch) In this tutorial I will describe how to install and configure mod_deflate on a lighttpd 1.4 web server on Debian Etch. mod_deflate is included by default in lighttpd 1.5, but not in 1.4 where mod_compress is used instead. The advantage of mod_deflate over mod_compress is that it can compress static and dynamic files (such as PHP files), whereas mod_compress can compress static files only. The lighttpd version coming with Debian Etch is 1.4.13, so we have to patch it to support mod_deflate. mod_deflate allows lighttpd to compress files and deliver them to clients (e.g. browsers) that can handle compressed content which most modern browsers do. With mod_deflate, you can compress HTML, text or XML files to approx. 20 - 30% of their original sizes, thus saving you server traffic and making your modem users happier.

• Build Your Own Video Community With Lighttpd And FlowPlayer (Debian Etch)

  Author: Falko Timme • Tags: debian, lighttpd • Comments: 1

  Build Your Own Video Community With Lighttpd And FlowPlayer (Debian Etch) This article shows how you can build your own video community using lighttpd with its mod_flv_streaming module (for streaming .flv videos, the format used by most major video communities such as YouTube) and its mod_secdownload module (for preventing hotlinking of the videos). I will use FlowPlayer as the video player, a free Flash video player with support for lighttpd's mod_flv_streaming module. I will also show how you can encode videos (.mp4 .mov .mpg .3gp .mpeg .wmv .avi) to the FLV format supported by Adobe Flash.

• Splitting lighttpd Logs With vlogger And Creating Statistics With Webalizer

  Author: Falko Timme • Tags: debian, lighttpd • Comments: 0

  Splitting lighttpd Logs With vlogger And Creating Statistics With Webalizer Vlogger is a little tool with which you can write lighttpd logs broken down by virtual hosts and days. With vlogger, we need to put just one accesslog.filename directive into our global lighttpd configuration, and it will write access logs for each virtual host and day. Therefore, you do not have to split lighttpd's overall access log into access logs for each virtual host each day, and you do not have to configure lighttpd to write one access log per virtual host (which could make you run out of file descriptors very fast). At the end of this tutorial I will show you how to use webalizer to create statistics from the lighttpd access logs.

• Reduce Apache's Load With lighttpd On Debian Etch

  Author: axman • Tags: apache, debian, lighttpd • Comments: 3

  Reduce Apache's Load With lighttpd On Debian Etch Lighttpd, sometimes pronounced "Lighty", is a lightweight HTTP server that can help alleviate Apache's load by serving static content. Since Lighttpd uses less resources per request than Apache, it generally serves most static content faster than Apache. This tutorial shows how to install Lighttpd behind Apache via Apache´s proxy module.

  Integrating XCache Into PHP5 (Debian Etch & lighttpd) This guide explains how to integrate XCache into PHP5 on a Debian Etch system (with lighttpd). From the XCache project page: "XCache is a fast, stable PHP opcode cacher that has been tested and is now running on production servers under high load." It's similar to other PHP opcode cachers, such as eAccelerator and APC.
