Running multiple instances of lighttpd

Hello,

I need to run multiple instancess of lighty with different configuration files. Did some search but didn't find anything about it. I copied lighty init script and modified it:

changed the pid, and added the following line:

LIGHTY_OPTS="-f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd1.conf"

However when trying to run lighttpd1 (the second instance of lighty) I get the following error:

(network.c.300) can't bind to port: 10.10.10.5 80 Address already in use.

This adress is in fact already in use by the first instance of lighty, however it should not try to bind to that adress as I added the following line to lighttpd1.conf :

server.bind = "10.10.10.6"

Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

With regards

 

Did you restart the first instance? What's the output of

Code:

netstat -tap

after you did so?

 

Thank you falko for the reply. I figured it out, the config file of the first instance contained a reference to the second ip adress, which made it to bind to both. Now I can start the second instance of lighty, and it's reachable. However it still uses the first IP for outbound traffic. Any idea on how can I force it to use eth0:0 for both in and out traffic?

With regards
