Using Apache 1.26 / mod_fastcgi 1.43 / fastcgi devkit 1.51 on FreeBSD
2.2.6.
That's the current (non-Beta) verson of everything, I believe.
Can't get FastCGI apps to work right (fully detailed description of
the problem is below). I *do* have FastCGI working perfectly on an
older box, using older versions of everything, and I'm not
configuring the enw ones differently.
Any ideas wll be much appreciated. This is a priority, so please
email direct as well as to the list.
Many thanks, and apologies to anyone who receives this through more
than one list.
Richard
Problem details are as follows:
1. I try to use the old-style "static" fastcgi apps.
I insert the following in httpd.conf:
<Directory /var/www/fcgi-bin>
SetHandler fastcgi-script
</Directory>
AppClass /var/www/fcgi-bin/tiny-fcgi.fcgi -processes 2
The result is that Apache fails to start, with the error
AppClass: could not create IPC socket
2. So I try the new "dynamic" style. Instead of the above, I insert
just the following in httpd.conf:
<Directory /var/www/fcgi-bin>
SetHandler fastcgi-script
</Directory>
Apache now starts, but the tiny-fcgi.fcgi fails to run: URLs
calling it return no response.
3. OK, so I discover that in the FastCGI IPC directory the file
dynamic/mbox is being created as follows:
-rw------- 1 root www 0 Apr 1 13:21 /var/www/ipc/dynamic/mbox
No good, since Apache changes its uid to run as the user "www".
So I chown it to be as follows:
-rw------- 1 www www 0 Apr 1 13:21 /var/www/ipc/dynamic/mbox
Now tiny-fcgi.fcgi works fine; but if it dies (which I simulate
by killing it) it doesn't restart, and we're back to returning no
response to URLs that call it.
Help?!
