Does Lazarus/FPC have its own process launcher for FastCGI?
Why would you need a process launcher ?
This is a new area for me. When I check the nginx, this is what I see.
1. At boot time, an fcgi launcher is loaded as part of the /etc/init.d
sequence
2. This fcgi launcher is linked with an ip:port combination or unix socket,
and specifies a program which launches the web developers cgi script.
Ok, but this is a gateway to spawn CGI programs through fastcgi.
For real FastCGI apps, you don't need this step.
3. The nginx configuration that for virtual host is configured with the same
ip:port or unix socket. When it reads file names matching the cgi spec it
dispatches them to the fcgi launcher listening on the ip:port, and this
launches the cgi with the program it is configured with.
This must be done: define a location which will be dispatched to the fastcgi
app.
e.g for php programs, php files are sent to the php5-cgi executable via this
command
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/spawn-fcgi -a 127.0.0.1 -p 9000 -u www-data -f /usr/bin/php5-cgi
From the nature of your reply I assume that the Lazarus exe takes the place
of the /usr/bin/php5-cgi.
Yes.
I built the helloworld program and I am running it as a CGI. Should I assume
that it is a FastCGI as well?
No.
Michael.
