OpenVBX and Lighttpd
by Richard Kolkovich
I run my web server on Lighttpd to keep things clean. Being the red-headed stepchild of the web server world, I’ve had some minor hurdles to overcome over the years (I’ll contemplate switching if I hit a big one…). Wanting to take advantage of the awesomeness that is Twilio through OpenVBX, I found no one who had done this with lighttpd. All you have to do is enable mod_redirect
:
server.modules = ( "mod_redirect", )
And configure a redirect thusly:
$HTTP["host"] =~ "openvbx.example.com" {
url.rewrite = (
"^/(.*)/index.php(.*)$" => "/$1/index.php?vbxsite=$2",
)
}
Voila!
