<div style="background:white"><span style="color:black">I installed thttpd on a server running Ubuntu 11.04 and can't seem to get it to start. I have examined the thttpd.conf file and compared it with an exmple that I found which did not turn up any issues. I created a short index.html file in the directory it told me to put it. However when I try to connect to the web page I get an error indicating the server is not running (no response!). I can ping the server from the machine I am attempting to browse from (on same local segment) but can't connect to the web page. </span></div>
