ID: 36943 Comment by: a at b dot com Reported by: webstorm at netcourrier dot com Summary: SCGI support Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Other web server Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.1.2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Fast-CGI ties up the CGI until the request is handled. SCGI allows multiple requests to be concurrently handled by a single CGI. This matters if handling one request has significant latency. Apache 2.5 does not support fast-cgi out of the box and I think mod_proxy_fastcgi has fallen prey to bitrot; I could not make it compile. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-15 18:17:27] paj...@php.net > SCGI is supported by Apache, FastCGI is not. Go ahead. FastCGI is actually supported by apache and next versions should have it included. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-15 18:14:38] peter_jones_jr at yahoo dot com Please discuss this on the PHP mailing list before sending feature requests. PHP should not support each and every protocol out there, especially if it has NO advantage over FastCGI. From the "spec": "When the SCGI server sees the end of the request it sends back a response and closes the connection. The format of the response is not specified by this protocol." This "protocol spec" doesn't make any sense to me. Note that there are several Java FastCGI servlets available, so there's no need to add more complexity to the PHP core. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-23 08:43:11] js at iksz dot hu SCGI is supported by Apache, FastCGI is not. Go ahead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-04-02 14:04:44] webstorm at netcourrier dot com I tried to use FastCGI but I have 2 problems : 1) I didn't found the FastCGI binaries, do i need to recompile source (i'm using Windows) ? 2) According to the FastCGI specification, when the FastCGI is started, the web server have to pass the handle (file number) of the opened socket to the FastCGI. How can this be done with Java ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-04-01 20:55:39] scottmacvicar at ntlworld dot com It's just another FastCGI type protocol but far easier to implement, see http://python.ca/nas/scgi/protocol.txt for the spec. Creating a SCGI API would be fairly straight forward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
