C/C++ FastCGI

[fryk]

Just don't get it.

From localhost/cgi-bin/echo runs as CGI - it spowns new pid every new request.

The goal is to run it as FastCGI - within one pid.

Can't make it. Pleas help guys...

Yes, you need to define a external app for each fast cgi application. It is a bad idea to write too many fcgi, which only do one simple task like a CGI, you should combine features as you could.

In the case of /fcgi-bin/echo, you should not define a script handler, instead, you need to define a FCGI context with URL "fcgi-bin/echo" or what ever URL you want to access the fcgi app.

Big thanks for your answer. How can I make that contex?

[mistwang]

click the name of the virtual host, then "context" tab, then "add"

[fryk]

Thank you for your answer. I have just found your great documentation about context.

I realised my silly questions was annoying for you. Sory for that. I appreciate your patience.

You are GREAT guys @ lsws!!

Can't make it work. Check this out guys please - what's wrong?

Log

Ok, I've solved it!!

The reason was: lack of header informations in my script ("content...").

Everything works fine now.

Cheers!

BTW is it possible to have such results:

simple-test-script.php

lsws (with fastCGI php): ~700req/s
apache2      (pure php): ~700req/s

simple-test-script.c

lsws, apache2 (both as fastCGI): ~1600req/s

[mistwang]

It doesn't looks right, I don't think the performance of lsws and Apache is in the same class, especially for the fcgi test.

Would you mind prividing more detail information about how the test is performed? What is the simple-test_script does? hardware, software used.
