One question I'm not sure about is if wrapping the fcgi through a shell
script decreases performance (by bypassing fcgi advantages).
May be @Marco_Hugentobler (who knows more about fcgi and performance)
can say word on this.
Invoking the server with script restarts the qgis_mapserv.fcgi
executable each time. Therefore, no benefit from all the server cache.
I'm expecting the performance to decrease significantly.
Performance-wise, it is better to go with Apache rewriting.

Marco

Hi Paolo,
you can even set a bunch of environment variables e.g.
export SHAPE_ENCODING=""
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/user/apps/qgis-master/lib
exec /home/user/apps/qgis-master/bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi
for testing a freshly compiled master

if you want to shorten URLs you also can pass the request through a
shell script (or
whatever script executable by apache and called instead og
qgis_mapserv.fcgi) and
change the parameters. Something similar to this file "foo.cgi":
<code>
#!/bin/bash
export QUERY_STRING=$QUERY_STRING'&map=/absolute/path/to/my/project.qgs'
exec /usr/lib/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi
</code>
Interesting hack, thanks.
All the best.
