catered? You mean supported? No. Only Apache. But I plan on using lighttpd on my VPS and writing a wiki article about it if someone else hasn't beaten me to it. So long as I can get it running under lighttpd :D

Just like someone did for URL Rewriting in G2:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Lighttpd_URL_Rewrite

And someone has started for Nginx for G3:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:WebServer:NGINX

But officially supported, no.

For your G3 install, you might want to change your permissions so Everybody doesn't have Edit permission. With that, I could edit permissions to add items :)

Yor last post reminded me why I asked this question over support:
I am getting this warning in the permission menu.

Quote:
mod_rewrite and set allowoveride file info

I have done the mod_rewrite its the allowoveride that has got me.

If you don't figure it out for lighttpd, I'll try. I've seen the same thing. First thing I'm going to do is hit google ;)

I have had a look at the allowoveride...
it is to do with htaccess.
Lighttpd dose not us htaccess files so this statment has no relvance to the config.
you just have to make sure that the mod_rewrite module is un hashed.
Lightttpd has a diferent way of protecting files and folders.
I think I mentioned the config on your topic ref to lighttpd.

Just found this: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/88167 (see bharat's first response)

Since lighttpd or nginx don't do .htaccess, I don't know if that message will ever go away... :)

I may end up just putting Apache on my VPS and see how it goes. My sites are pretty low traffic. I just want good performance for those 20-50 visitors a day :) If it consumes the box I'll look at alternatives including upgrading my plan for more resources.

At this point, since Gallery is such an important part of several of my sites, I'm seriously thinking of dumping Lighttpd as Apache is just going to be the easier path.
