Lighttpd¶
Table of Contents
Compilation¶
CentOS¶
Setup the build environment the same way as for Nginx.
Download the Lightpd webserver module and unpack the tarball:
#!/bin/bash
tar -zxvf lighttpd_mod_smooth_streaming-1.9.6.tar.gz
Run configure in the Lighttpd directory followed by make and make install:
#!/bin/bash
cd ~/lighttpd-1.x.y
./configure
make
sudo make install
Ubuntu¶
Setup the build environment the same way as for Nginx.
The Lighttpd weberver is built the same way as on CentOS.
Configuration¶
Edit the configuration file, /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf, so that file requests ending in '.ism' are handled by the module:
server.modules = (
...,
"mod_smooth_streaming",
...
)
smooth-streaming.extensions = ( ".ism" )
Make sure that DAEMON in your startup script, /etc/init.d/lighttpd, is set to point to the locally build version.
DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/lighttpd
Attention
Please install your License Key now, otherwise streaming will not work!
Start lighttpd:
sudo /etc/init.d/lighttpd start
After restarting your web server, you can continue with Verify Your Setup.
