.SH DESCRIPTION |
|
fcgi-cgi is a FastCGI application to run normal cgi applications. It doesn't |
|
make CGI applications faster, but it allows you to run them on a different |
|
host and with different user permissions (without the need for suexec). |
|
.P |
|
lighttpd2 won't have a mod_cgi, so you need this FastCGI wrapper to be |
|
able to execute standard cgi applications like mailman and cgit. |
|
.P |
|
nginx recommends something similar, they implemented the wrapper in Perl: |

|
.P |
|
For running you probably want spawn-fcgi (http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/spawn-fcgi) |
|
.SH EXAMPLE |
|
Example usage: |
|
|
|
spawn-fcgi -n -s /var/run/fastcgi-cgi.sock -u www-default -U www-data -- /usr/bin/fcgi-cgi |
