- jalada 16y agoAgreed, nginx is nice (I'm using it to serve static content on my blog in front of Apache). But nginx requires additional setup with WordPress to get it working properly, in particular mod_rewrite rules (especially if you then use WP Super Cache, or at least that's what it was like on Lighttpd when I used to use that). I don't consider WordPress to be server agnostic - it's built for Apache and it only works well on IIS because Microsoft made some effort to make it happen.

- jalada 16y agoNice resource, I'll update my post with a link to that.
- Sukotto 16y agoThere's also this post from patio11 that, amongst other things, describes what he does to use nginx + wordpress. http://www.kalzumeus.com/2009/08/22/using-wordpress-and-rails-on-the-same-domain/ http://www.kalzumeus.com/2009/08/22/using-wordpress-and-rail...
