Recently i've decided to switch several our Perl projects from LightTPD to Apache+mod_fastcgi under win32.
First problem was to run some fastcgi mechanism with Apache. I've tried both mod_fcgid and mod_fastcgi (by downloading binaries from here and from http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/), but no luck.
Under mod_fcgid I had following in error log:
| Code: | | mod_fcgid: get overlap result error |
And under mod_fastcgi the result was as following:
| Code: |
FastCGI: comm with server "C:/www/cgi-bin/foo.pl" aborted: GetOverlappedResult() failed
|
So I decided to download sources of mod_fastcgi from here http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0910052141.tar.gz and debug them. There were the latest sources I could find. BTW, Visual C++ 2003 did not allow me to open included .dsp file, so I was to create project from scratch and rebuild the module.
Surprisingly, it worked. It seems, that there is no build of that sources in the net, so maybe it's reasonable to upload the build somewhere on this site?
And for last note about Catalyst. I had long time struggling with errors like "child process exited with code=9" when I realised, that Registry key for running perl for scripts had "-T" key, but Catalyst fails to run with this key.
Hope this will help someone. |

| I have recently compiled mod_fastcgi.so from the original sources following the steps suggested by glsmith (https://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=5076). I was successful to build both the 32-bit and 64-bit modules. The purpose was that I wanted to try the module for comparison with the mod_fcgid.so (which I have currently well running). However, I had no luck with the setup of the module, which appears to be totally incomprehensive to me (https://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=5086). The last thing that I have tried was an attempt to run php-fpm (compiled into php-cgi to my knowledge) with the mod_fastcgi. No luck though. Would you please share your experience on how to setup the mod_fastcgi on windows? |

Hello!
I have tested following configuration:
| Code: |
LoadModule fastcgi_module modules/mod_fastcgi.dll
ScriptInterpreterSource Registry-Strict
<Directory c:/www/cgi-bin>
SetHandler fastcgi-script
Options +ExecCGI
# Customize the next two directives for your requirements.
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Alias /fsystem/bin c:/work/fsystem/www/FSystem/script/fsystem_fastcgi.pl
Alias /fsystem c:/work/fsystem/www
FastcgiServer c:/work/fsystem/www/FSystem/script/fsystem_fastcgi.pl -processes 1
<Location /fsystem>
Allow from all
</Location>
|
First part (about c:/www/cgi-bin) is a dynamic server (which is started on demand, when someone accesses the script.
foo.pl is a minimal example of Perl FastCGI script, like this:
| Code: |
#!c:/soft/perl5.14/bin/perl.exe -w
use FCGI;
use CGI::Fast;
while (my $q = CGI::Fast->new)
{
foreach $var (sort(keys(%ENV)))
{
$val = $ENV{$var};
$val =~ s|\n|\\n|g;
$val =~ s|"|\\"|g;
print "${var}=\"${val}\"\n";
}
}
|
Second part is a Catalyst application. I've configured it as a static server (which starts with Apache and keeps running). Here I start only one process (for debugging purposes), but it works well with several processes too.
BTW, I have ActivePerl 5.14 and Catalyst 5.90019. Also I have a registry key configured to run Perl for *.pl files under Apache. |

| Would that configuration change much with Apache 24 and ActivePerl 5.12? |

I suppose the configuration itself will be the same, except that you should rebuild mod_fastcgi for Apache 2.4 |
