What file-on-the-filesystem is the file you want your fastcgi server to process for this request?

If that is the reason, then that's the thing to fix. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "the initial request"; but if the client does not send something to nginx, nginx cannot do much with it. > >>2.

Maybe it does. wsgi and fastcgi are different words. I wouldn't assume that they are interchangeable, without testing. If you can identify exactly what is happening, and what should be happening, then you have a chance to identify which specific part is failing. >From what you have written so far, the problem is with the client not making the request that you want. Note that the nginx config lines that start with "fastcgi_param HTTP_" should not be necessary. I would not be surprised if having them present breaks things, but I have not tested for that.
