前段时间发过此帖，不知为何论坛关闭再开之后就消失了，再发一次。
其实安装Lighttpd不需要什么别的软件，去https://www.kevinworthington.com/?s=lighttpd下载编译好的win32版就好了（本人用的是zip包，exe版类似）。
1.解压到任何目录（最好是英文目录，其他语言的没试过），如d:\inetpub\LightTPD；我的系统环境：Vista32 中文版，PHP5.2.3和5.2.4，mysql 5.0.45；
以下的conf、bat和RunHiddenConsole.exe可以在这里下载：http://www.box.net/shared/vfvqyjhday
2.打开conf文件夹，将lighttpd-inc.conf备份；
3.修改这个配置文件，我的配置如下（精简过的）＃后面的是注释，详细注释前往官方文档http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/wiki/Docs及本论坛的好帖http://www.lighttpd.net.cn/showthread.php?t=11217：
代码:
#定义lighttpd所在目录
var.root = "D:/Inetpub/Lighttpd"
#启用的modules（详细见原版lighttpd-inc.conf）
server.modules = (
"mod_access",
"mod_cgi",
"mod_accesslog",
"mod_alias",
#"mod_fastcgi"
)
#服务的目录
server.document-root = "D:/Inetpub/www/"
server.errorlog = var.root + "/logs/lighttpd.error.log"
server.upload-dirs = (var.root + "/tmp")
accesslog.filename = var.root + "/logs/access.log"
#默认首页
index-file.names = ( "index.php", "index.html", "index.htm" )
#使用php
static-file.exclude-extensions = ( ".php" )
#使用CGI php的定义
cgi.assign = ( ".php" => "D:/Inetpub/php/php-cgi.exe")
#使用fastcgi PHP（win版下可使用）
#fastcgi.server = ( ".php" =>( "localhost" =>("host" => "127.0.0.1","port" => 521 )))
mimetype.assign = (

#虚拟目录
alias.url = ( "/ma/" => "D:/Inetpub/ma/" )
#侦听端口
server.port = 81
mimetype.use-xattr = "enable"
#无首页是否列文件目录
dir-listing.activate = "enable"
#服务器的版本好（好像是列目录时显示的）
server.tag = "lighttpd/1.4.18i-win32"
url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc" )
$HTTP["url"] =~ "\.pdf$" {
server.range-requests = "disable"
}
4.写运行Lighttpd的批处理文件放在lighttpd的根目录下：
运行CGI php：
start_lighttpd - cgi.bat
代码:
@ECHO OFF
ECHO Starting lighttpd...
#重点是这句，－m指定mod文件的位置（一般不需要修改），－f指定配置文件的位置
LightTPD.exe -m lib\ -f conf\lighttpd.conf
IF %errorlevel% GTR 0 (
ECHO Starting lighttpd failed!
PAUSE
) ELSE (
ECHO Starting lighttpd succeed!
)
运行fastcgi php：
a.先确保在conf中使用mod_fastcgi，和配置了fastcgi.server；
b.start_lighttpd - fastcgi.bat，RunHiddenConsole.exe 在官方网站有下(也可以不使用，不过回留下一个cmd的窗口)
代码:
@ECHO OFF
ECHO Starting PHP FastCGI...
#运行php-cgi.exe
RunHiddenConsole.exe ..\PHP\php-cgi.exe -b 127.0.0.1:521
ECHO Starting LightTPD...
ECHO.
lighttpd.exe -v
ECHO.
lighttpd.exe -f etc\lighttpd.conf -m lib
EXIT
关闭Lighttpd：
stop_lighttpd - cgi.bat
代码:
@ECHO OFF
ECHO Stoping lighttpd...
bin\Process -k LightTPD.exe
ping 127.0.0.1 > NUL
stop_lighttpd_fastcgi.bat
代码:
@ECHO OFF
ECHO Stopping LightTPD...
bin\process.exe -k lighttpd.exe >nul
ECHO Stopping PHP FastCGI...
bin\process.exe -k php-cgi.exe >nul
ECHO.
EXIT
重启Lighttpd：
restart_lighttpd.bat
代码:
@ECHO OFF
CALL stop_lighttpd.bat
CALL start_lighttpd.bat
5.也可以去bin目录把lighttpd配置成windows的系统服务。
