Is this log file familiar to someone of UBUNTU users?

Lighttpd log file:

> 2009-08-30 21:37:45: (log.c.75) server started 
> 2009-08-30 21:37:45: (mod_fastcgi.c.1029) the fastcgi-backend php5-cgi *failed* to start:

Please open a secret how did you solved fcgi problem and made lighttpd to start, if you did.

Thx, Gosh.

Find correct path to PHP executable. You might need to use php-cgi version (the default php might be php-cli, which is not suitable).

If you don't have one, install php-cgi package or compile PHP with --enable-fcgi.
