[GTALUG] Re: lighttpd problem with systemd configuration file

Hi All, Around late spring the cgi-bin components of web pages I wrote started failing under lighttpd with what looked like permission problems.

After much debugging I tracked the problem down to a configuration file lighttpd installs for systemd, namely /lib/systemd/system/lighttpd.service which is symlinked by /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/lighttpd.service.

Does anyone know of a work-around?

LOL, who's buried in Grant's Tomb? Dump * system * D Switch from Debian to Devuan, and all the systemd overcomplexifications will be history for you. SteveT Steve Litt http://444domains.com
