Start up script for lighttpd?

Hi all,

I'm so not good at Unix stuff - a while ago I got a copy of the
/etc/init.d/lighttpd from someone on this list but I lost it.

I tried modifying from another file myself. Somehow it doesn't
start the back end process (Python FCGI) properly. The Python
back-end somehow can not find some modules. But if I run the
same command /usr/local/sbin/lighttpd -f /etc/lighttpd.conf,
it works just fine.

Can anyone help point out what I'm doing wrong? Below is the file.
