Nov 6, 2013 at 9:02 comment added Artis I am not sure that lighttpd will actually run it's operations as root. It is started by root but then it changes the user which it is being run under for security purposes. So pretty much you're left with sudo. If you open up /etc/sudoers there will be a line very similar to what you posted with the pi user, use that for reference. Just copy it and change from pi to www-data or whatever user lighttpd runs on your system
