Package: thttpd
Version: 2.25b-11
Severity: important


The logic in the BASH script that starts the daemon is faulty and
causes the script to exit before starting the daemon. I solved this by
commneting out all lines between the setting of variables and the "set
-e" line before the case statment. I don't think most users are able
to do a hack like this. I don't really know BASH flow control, but I
got it going. I use thttpd as my production server. Thank you.

Hi,

It looks like you haven't properly enabled thttpd by setting ENABLED=yes in /etc/default/thttpd. The only edit to this init.d script removes the check of that file.

Please make that change & reopen if you still see issues.
