entware install by amtm. the version is armv7soft (2.3.36)

It seems the lighttpd not support php8.

Lightttpd does support php. I've never used it, but this might help

Just to clarify, you changed the port that lightttpd listens on from 80 to another port? Port 80 is used by the router's WebGUI.

 

[Jeffrey Young]

Looking at the entware package list (opkg list | grep lighttpd, you may need to install the lighttpd-mod-fastcgi package.

Your posted log suggests that lightttpd is having trouble creating/accessing the socket. I ran into a similar situation with NUT. Entware packages are built around OpenWRT. Check the lighttpd config files to make sure lighttpd is not trying to start as a user that simply does not exist in Merlin (in my case with NUT, NUT tries to start as user "root", which does not exist).

A google search certainly suggests you are having a permission issue with the socket file.

Wish I could be more help, but I have never used lighttpd.

[Jeffrey Young]

Nginx. Have used it on both my AC86U and AX86U as a reverse proxy.

nginx use php8-fpm right?

 

[Jeffrey Young]

I would imagine so. According to google, so does lighttpd. As said, your logs suggest an issue with opening the socket file. Not php

i try to downgrade ipk version. Finally, i foud it is ipk version issue. sovled. thx.

 

[Jeffrey Young]

Out of curiosity, which firmware version are you using? Some other folks are also having issues with the latest version of Transmission on 388.2.2 whereas it works fine on 388.2 and 388.1. There solution too was to use an older ipk version of Transmission.

This fixed it for mee too.

For those looking to downgarde.
wget the previous versions of lighttpd, from the archive folder https://bin.entware.net/

In my case armv7sf-k2.6

https://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k2.6/archive/

wget https://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k2.6/archive/lighttpd_1.4.69-1_armv7-2.6.ipk

lighttpd_1.4.69-1_armv7-2.6.ipk
lighttpd-mod-auth_1.4.69-1_armv7-2.6.ipk
lighttpd-mod-authn_file_1.4.69-1_armv7-2.6.ipk
lighttpd-mod-fastcgi_1.4.69-1_armv7-2.6.ipk
lighttpd-mod-scgi_1.4.69-1_armv7-2.6.ipk

Install with: opkg install packagename --force-downgrade
Do this for all 5

After that
/opt/etc/init.d/S80lighttpd start
Starting lighttpd... done.

To see if its running
/opt/etc/init.d/S80lighttpd check
Checking lighttpd... alive.
