Lighttpd pihole redirect for all other pages

Please follow the below template, it will help us to help you!

Expected Behaviour:

I would like to be able to view other configured web directories and files in my /var/www/html/ directory.

Actual Behaviour:

I keep being given the "did you mean to go to the admin panel?" page

How do I enable the general use of lighttpd as I had before pihole was installed?
I've tried fumbling around with a few settings in lighttpd.conf but none seem to be having an effect.

not sure how that page is being picked up but if, for example , I create a test directory in var/www/html and pop an index.php page in there I seee the contents of the index.php.

Without the index.php I get the generic " did you mean to go to the admin page " message

Thanks. That pointed me in the right direction.
I looked at the lighttpd logs in /var/log/lighttpd/error.log and noticed it complaining about the other directory I had set up (in /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/89-mythingy.conf) where I had used alias.url to point lighttpd to a directory.

Adding mod_alias in the lighttpd.conf list of modules solved the issue.

Thanks!
(Marking myself as the solution, hope nobody minds)
