The web server is up and accepting connections on this host. The lightweight HTTP daemon has been installed and is waiting for somebody to drop site content into its document root.
lighttpd was designed to use as little memory as possible while serving many concurrent connections. It runs comfortably on small instances, embedded boards and dedicated hardware. The event-driven core scales well with sparse workloads where most connections are idle most of the time.
It is most often deployed as a static-file server, as a thin FastCGI gateway in front of PHP, or as a reverse proxy for upstream applications.
Edit the server.document-root directive in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf or drop your files into the existing path. After updating config files, reload with the service manager so new settings take effect without dropping live connections.

Conditions match on host, URL or remote address; place the most specific match first.
Validate your changes with lighttpd -t -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf before reloading. The flag prints any syntax issue along with the offending line number.
