+This is a guide to install tracks with lighttpd 1.4 on Ubuntu 11.04 (natty) with a sqlite database. Experienced people should find it easy to replace the sqlite adapter with a mysql adapter as you can see in this guide:  
+
+## Getting Tracks Up
+
+Make some directory for tracks:
+
+` sudo mkdir /opt/tracks`
+
+Get the source code
+
+    sudo git clone git://github.com/TracksApp/tracks.git /opt/tracks/tracks
+    cd /opt/tracks/tracks
+
+Install the necessary files for rails:
+
+    sudo apt-get install rails
+    sudo apt-get install rake
+    sudo apt-get install libfcgi-ruby1.8
+
+Comment out zentest and hoe in the Gemfile and then get some additional ruby gems:
+
+    ## edit the Gemfile first
+    sudo gem install bundler
+    sudo /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/bundle install
+
+Create your config/database.yml file. It should look similar to the following. **Note:** make sure that the www-data user can read the sqlite database file. You might want to choose better paths for your database.
+
+    test: &TEST
+      adapter: sqlite3
+      database: ":memory:"
+    
+    production:
+      adapter: sqlite3
+      database: /tmp/tracks-production.sq3
+
+    development:
+      adapter: sqlite3
+      database: /tmp/tracks-development.sq3    
+
+    cucumber:
+      <<: *TEST
+    
+    selenium:
+      <<: *TEST
+
+Create your config/site.yml file from the template `config/site.yml.tmpl`. Initialize the database:
+
+    rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
+    rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=development ## in case you want help out later
+
+Check whether you can run the server locally:
+
+    sudo ./scripts/server -e production
+
+Check whether the server is running by going to http://localhost:3000. Terminate the process once you know it's working.
+
+## Getting lighttpd running
+
+Install the necessary packages 
+
+    apt-get install lighttpd spawn-fcgi lighttpd-mod-magnet
+
+Enable the mods for lighted
+
+    lighttpd-enable-mod fastcgi
+    lighttpd-enable-mod magnet
+    lighttpd-enable-mod access
+
+Follow the description of running Rails applications with lighttpd. You can easily use spawn-fcgi as it comes with a package in Ubuntu:
+ http://redmine.lighttpd.net/wiki/1/LighttpdOnRails
+
+## Get the fcgi bridge working with rails
+
+Create a startup file called *run-tracks.sh* for tracks based on this template:http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/spawn-fcgi/repository/entry/trunk/doc/run-rails. Use *www-data* for the user and the group.
+
+Configure the system so the www-data user can access the system:
+
+    mkdir /opt/tracks/tracks/log
+    chown -R www-data:www-data /opt/tracks/tracks/public
+
+Test whether the script is working by starting it:
+
+    chmod +x /opt/tracks/run-tracks.sh
+    sudo -u www-data /opt/tracks/run-tracks.sh
+
+## Getting https running
+
+Check whether you have ssl compiled into lighttpd with `lighttpd -v`. It should mention ssl. Then following this guide to enable ssl: http://redmine.lighttpd.net/wiki/1/HowToSimpleSSL
