Re: latest lighttpd (1.4.45) not working on Windows 10 Home Edition


Hi,

I'd like to add more information to the report.

With the help of the IRC support channel I've managed to successfully 
run a build of a later version of lighttpd (v 1.4.52) which is the 
latest tarball available at

https://www.lighttpd.net/download/

with the following build configuration

`./configure --without-bzip2 --with-openssl --with-lua`

The build is quite identical to the Cygwin build; I did not have to 
tweak my configuration files and everything worked as expected, whereas 
the current Cygwin package (v 1.4.45) shows the behavior I previously 
reported.

Best regards,
