PLEASE NOTE: Native Lighttpd Windows builds are available at http://en.wlmp-project.net/
The last available Lighttpd for Windows build that I created using Cygwin was Lighttpd for Windows 1.4.17. Updated September 29, 2009.
Lighttpd 1.4.13 for Windows is now available. Please note that the Windows port should only be used for testing and does not support all of the modules that Linux/BSD/other Unix builds do. If you decide to run this in a production environment, be aware of that risk. This file is posted “as-is”. I assume no responsibilty for anything that you do with this file. Use at your own risk! I’ve posted this file here in the hope that they will be useful. I have tested this build on Windows 2000 and XP. I am releasing this under that same license as the original author, Jan Kneschke: http://www.lighttpd.net/download/COPYING or read the ‘COPYING’ file in c:\lighttpd. Have fun!

Hi, I’m runnning 1.4.13 on Windows XP Pro. I noticed shortcuts (aka symbolic links on linux) don’t work in the windows version with virtual hosts.
Example: I have a directory english.domain.com and a shortcut (sym link) to espanol.domain.com, then the symlink will not be recognized and lighttpd goes to the default webpage.
Can that be fixed or is that a WIndows specific problem that cannot be overcome? it works fine on the Redhat production server.
forgot to mention that I also run PHP 5.2.1 as CGI, is that has anything to do with it…
Zavier: I think that is a Windows specific problem. Shortcuts on Windows do not work the same as symlinks on Linux in my experience.
Hello it ’s the first time that I use lighttpd. I have installed lighttpd-1.4.13-win-setup.exe. I make like written by . I open mozilla firefox on http://127.0.0.1:80, http://127.0.0.1:81, http://127.0.0.1:8080, http://127.0.0.1:3000, http://127.0.0.1:3001 but it does nothing.
Alessandro: check your firewall. It is probably blocking lighttpd.
