   I use lighttpd and I've been trying to get wordpress to work when installed in /blog instead of being the main page of my site.
   When installed in / wordpress works fine, and I have no troubles.
   When installed in /blog instead of wordpress php files being parsed they are being sent to the user (as application/octet-stream mime type).
   I also have Gallery2 installed in /gallery2 and it works without a problem.
   I'm using mod_fastcgi and PHP 4.3.10-16 (cgi-fcgi)

   have you tried asking in the lighttpd forums? they might answer this faster (though, I'd like to know what's the issue...).

   Sounds like a configuration problem, but I don't know how lighttpd is configured for execution of php scripts.

   (do you see a big performance gain using lighttpd instead of apache?)

   Hm... I submitted an issue this morning :
   http://wordpress.org/support/topic/61569

   slightly different issue but similar in that, inside wordpress dir it works fine but outside it falls apart.. maybe caused by the same thing ?

   But then all of this is a few feet above my head so maybe I'm way off. :)
