with lighttpd
Lighttpd
These configurations were tested with Lighttpd 1.4.7.
Standalone server mode
server.document-root = "/var/www/MyApp/root"
fastcgi.server = (
"" => (
"MyApp" => (
"socket" => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
"check-local" => "disable"
)
)
)
Static mode
server.document-root = "/var/www/MyApp/root"
fastcgi.server = (
"" => (
"MyApp" => (
"socket" => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
"check-local" => "disable",
"bin-path" => "/var/www/MyApp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl",
"min-procs" => 2,
"max-procs" => 5,
"idle-timeout" => 20
)
)
)
Note that in newer versions of lighttpd, the min-procs and idle-timeout
values are disabled. The above example would start 5 processes.
Non-root configuration
You can also run your application at any non-root location with either
of the above modes. Note the required mod_rewrite rule.
url.rewrite = ( "myapp\$" => "myapp/" )
fastcgi.server = (
"/myapp" => (
"MyApp" => (
# same as above
)
)
)

<http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/fastcgi.html>
Static file handling
Static files can be served directly by lighttpd for a performance
boost.
$HTTP["url"] !~ "^/(?:img/|static/|css/|favicon.ico$)" {
fastcgi.server = (
"" => (
"MyApp" => (
"socket" => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
"check-local" => "disable",
)
)
)
}
This will serve everything in the "img", "static", and "css"
directories statically, as well as the favicon file.
