This is pretty easy and is more of a personal note. First check that mod_redirect is enabled in lighttpd.conf:
sudo nano /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
Uncomment the line that write “mod_redirect”.
server.modules = (
"mod_rewrite",
"mod_access",
"mod_alias",
"mod_accesslog",
"mod_compress",
"mod_redirect",
…
"mod_rewrite",
"mod_access",
"mod_alias",
"mod_accesslog",
"mod_compress",
"mod_redirect",
…
Then add the following at the bottom of your lighttpd.conf:
$HTTP["host"] =~ "^www.(.*)" {
url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://%1/$1" )
}
url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://%1/$1" )
}
Finally, give lighttpd a restart and test it out:
sudo /etc/init.d/lighttpd restart
Hope it helps.
After I made the switch to Lighty, I totally forgot to do redirect all my www sites to no-www, this results in all people who visit www.darylli.com to be shown the default site which is what you see here basically.
