Python + PHP + Lighttpd?

I've set up a few web servers in my day, but I'm not sure how they work internally. I'm setting up a new environment for myself and I'm interested in configuring my lighttpd server to support both PHP and Python. Is this possible?

You can also enable Lighty to use .pl, .py and .php as 'cgi' by enabling mod_cgi and setting it up. The default configs are on the Lighty website. However, this will have the benefits and problems of running an independent cgi process. If you are only experiencing light traffic, performance shouldn't be an issue.

Yes, this is possible. Here you can find a sample configuration.

fastcgi.server = (
".php" => ((
"bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php5-cgi",
"socket" => "/tmp/php.socket"
)),
"django.fcgi" => (
"main" => (
"host" => "127.0.0.1",
"port" => 9090, #set the port numbers to what-eva you want
),
),
"admin.fcgi" => (
"admin" => (
"host" => "127.0.0.1",
"port" => 9091,
)
)
)
