[ANSWERED] Can't use WonderCMS with lighttpd - help appreciated

Post by McNoodles »

Hi everyone.

The topic says it all - unfortuantely, I can't use WonderCMS 3.3.4 with the lighttpd server. Despite following the installation steps in the right order, I get a 500 error from lighttpd when trying to access the default (unaltered) index.php page.

The file permissions are all fine and set to the values proposed by the FAQ.

Is this a known issue with WonderCMS, or are there any steps I should take in order to get WonderCMS working with lighttpd? Any help is appreciated.

Hello McNoodles.

A few questions to make us debug this faster:
1. What version of PHP and other requirements from https://www.wondercms.com/requirements do you have?
2. If you visit yourwebsite (example.com?page=home) does anything show up?
3. Are you hosting the website on a local machine or with some hosting provider?


Please also check this related thread, where the users suggested editing the lighttpd config to make WonderCMS work: viewtopic.php?p=4120&hilit=lighttpd#p4120
