Hi!

I'm running lighttpd and i hate it using syslog. I can't set it up to log
to stdout so i thought about using named pipes.

lighttpd.conf:
server.errorlog      = "log.pipe"
accesslog.filename   = "log.pipe"

lighttpd/run:
#!/bin/sh
logpipe="log.pipe"
if [ ! -p $logpipe ]; then
  mkfifo -m0640 "$logpipe"
  chown www-data.adm "$logpipe"
fi
exec lighttpd -D -f ./lighttpd.conf

lighttpd/log/run:
#!/bin/sh
logpipe="../log.pipe"
if [ ! -p $logpipe ]; then
  mkfifo -m0640 "$logpipe"
  chown www-data.adm "$logpipe"
fi
exec 2>&1
exec <> $logpipe
exec svlogd ./main

Now i wonder if i will run in any problems with this.

regards
sascha
