Description
lighttpd is a secure, fast, compliant, and very flexible web-server that has been optimized for high-performance environments. It has a very low memory footprint compared to other webservers and takes care of cpu-load. Its advanced feature-set (FastCGI, CGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) make lighttpd the perfect webserver-software for every server that suffers load problems.

1.4 Releases
1.5 Releases
This will guide you through the steps needed to deploy a ready for production LLMP (where second "L" comes from Lighttpd) server.
Getting 1.5 (L+L)
lighttpd 1.5 milestone is currently in intensive development and there are no official builds available directly from the standard repositories. To get it available on you server you should add Stefan Bühler's PPA archives.
Edit /etc/apt/sources.list with your favorite editor, and append to it the following line:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/stbuehler/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main
Don't worry if your system version is hardy, the repository won't upgrade the full system, only the required packages!!!
Now add Stefan's key from the Ubuntu keyserver:
udo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xEA5C35785A43ED73
Once you finished, use your favorite package manager and update and install lighttpd1.5:
sudo apt-get install lighttpd1.5 lighttpd1.5-mod-magnet
{!} The last package will be used for mod_rewrite rules.
This should be enough to get lighttpd on your machine.
