Lighttpd and Rails upgrade troubles
Some notes from the latest discussion with Moro-san about his lighty and rails upgrade troubles:
Lighttpd after version 1.4.9 requires the full path in the "bin-path" part of the lighttpd.conf file. Also from version 1.4.10 you will have CWD in your config files:
"bin-path" => CWD + "/public/dispatch.fcgi"
So if you have old lighttpd (<=1.4.8) and old rails applications (<=1.1.0) you can have a problems (with existing or just created applications):
- upgrading only the lighttpd, but not the rails (solution: convert relative paths to the absolute ones)

The best solution is maybe:
