texte = I tried moving the folder into /var/www/html and it didn't work -- of course this is because I failed to change this line in my lighttpd.conf file at the same time in order to correct the path to WebDNA.fcgi: "bin-path" => "/var/www/WebDNA/WebDNA.fcgi", I don't know how to add a document root within the virtual server as you've suggested below, but I think it's going to be easier (for now anyways) to just move the WebDNA folder back into /var/www, rename it to "xxx", and make these two changes in the lighttpd.conf file then reboot: from: server.document-root = "/var/www/html" to: server.document-root = "/var/www" from: "bin-path" => "/var/www/WebDNA/WebDNA.fcgi", to: "bin-path" => "/var/www/xxx/WebDNA.fcgi", Unless I've forgotten something again I think this will do what I want right now. Then later I can figure out how to try your suggestion and see if that works. Sincerely, Kenneth Grome > You can give it the name you want. No restriction.
