I'm looking for a web server to use for local development and testing. My requirements are:
Simple to configure with one config file
Included as a package in most distributions
Supports CGI, access.log, HTTP Basic auth and htpasswd format, SSI, HTTP 1.1, setting expire headers, rewrite rules.
Stable configuration format
I've been using lighttpd for a while, but I am frustrated by its configuration churn. Every couple of version some option becomes "deprecated" with another one to replace it. This results in warnings when I launch it, extra work I have to do to get rid of them, and then managing these changes between all the different lighttpd versions I now have to support.
Does anyone know a good alternative?
