So I'm having a bit of a problem getting my app to run under
Lighttpd using FastCGI. Essentially my question is, "Can someone
explain how to set lighty, fastcgi, and my app up?" I've scoured
Google/Yahoo for more info but can't find a perl-FCGI specific
tutorial - just a PHP one. PHP fastcgi, for the record, is working
fine via lighty thanks to what I've found online. All the usual
software seems to be installed fine and happy (lighty, perl,
Catalyst, perl-FCGI...).
With the config below (which is my best guess after some
experimentation), I get the following when I try to start lighty:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lighttpd -D -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

2007-10-16 22:04:38: (mod_fastcgi.c.1032) If you're trying to run
PHP as a FastCGI backend, make sure you're using the FastCGI-enabled
version.
You can find out if it is the right one by executing 'php -v' and it
should display '(cgi-fcgi)' in the output, NOT '(cgi)' NOR '(cli)'.
For more information, check
http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/wiki/Docs%3AModFastCGI#preparing-php-as-a-fastcgi-programIf
this is PHP on Gentoo, add 'fastcgi' to the USE flags.

Going down.
Some other version and package info:
