Apache Rewrite Rule -> Lighttpd

Hey,

Mod_Rewrite is the bane of my existance so I'm hoping someone else can help me out.

Here's what I've got in Apache .htaccess (its quite a simple rule):

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

Code (markup):

I need to "rewrite" this (ohohoho) to a lighttpd ModRewrite rule. Here's what I've tried:

url.rewrite = ("^/$" => "app/webroot/", "^/(.*)" => "app/webroot/$1")

Code (markup):

Which doesn't work. Any help?

 

Any ideas on this? Maybe everyone in this forum are die-hard Apache supporters

 

Not quite, but there ARE a lot more Apache users out there.

Have you tried /app/webroot/$1 ? (Leading slash)

I assume there's a good reason why you don't just change the DocumentRoot to /app/webroot...
