Hello,
I am trying to get the fastcgi examples from netcgi2 to work, but am
having some problems with this. I am running with apache2 and
mod_fcgid.
I have compiled the counter_fcgi example with ocamlopt and copied the
executable to my fcgid directory. When pointing my browser at the url
of the binary I get an internal server error and the logs contain the
following:
[Thu Jul 16 13:20:38 2009] [warn] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: read data from fastcgi server error.
[Thu Jul 16 13:20:38 2009] [error] [client 127.0.1.1] Premature end of script headers: counter.fcgi
I can see that a socket is created for communication between apache and
counter.fcgi, so something is functioning correctly, and I am unsure
what the problem might be.
Any pointers are welcome!
Regards
Anders

I do not think this is the case since these are the example programs that come with the distribution and so should work out of the box. I have tried the counter_fcgi and add_fcgi examples under mod_fcgid and mod_fastcgi with apache2, but I can not get the examples to work. Under mod_fastcgi I get a slightly different error message: [Thu Jul 16 15:05:09 2009] [error] [client 127.0.1.1] FastCGI: comm with server "/home/alt/projects/ocaml/www/counter.fcgi" aborted: idle timeout (30 sec) [Thu Jul 16 15:05:09 2009] [error] [client 127.0.1.1] FastCGI: incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server "/home/alt/projects/ocaml/www/counter.fcgi" Which suggests that apache and counter.fcgi can see each other, but that the communication between the two is somehow not functioning. I should mention that I am using the netcgi2 lib from godi-ocamlnet. Previously I used debians standard ocaml packages, but I am now using godi exclusively. Maybe I have somehow linked with something from my old ocaml installation and in this way messed something up? I'll keep trying for a while,...

You should be aware that there are several ways for a web server to contact a FCGI script. According to what you say, you are expecting the web server to start (then and contact the script on stdin), in which case you have to comment out the "sockaddr" argument (see netcgi_fcgi.mli). The counter_fcgi.ml example, as it prints on stdout, expects to be started manually and be contacted by the web server on port 1200. Please see the FCGI doc about how to do that. http://www.fastcgi.com/mod_fastcgi/docs/mod_fastcgi.html If you believe that the examples should tell more about how FCGI connectors work, feel free to write some comment to put at the beginning of the files and send it to me.

The counter_fcgi.ml example, as it prints on I have also tried this, but to no avail. I still get an internal server error and a message about a timeout in the logs. > stdout, expects to be started manually and be contacted by the web > server on port 1200. Please see the FCGI doc about how to do that. > http://www.fastcgi.com/mod_fastcgi/docs/mod_fastcgi.html I believe I have done this part correctly, though. Here's a sample session when starting the program from the commandline as you suggest: $ ./counter.fcgi ./counter.fcgi (FCGI) listening on port 1200. And in another shell: $ lynx 127.0.0.1:1200 This waits indefinately. A timeout is also what is reported by mod_fastcgi. Maybe I am missing something very obviuos. Often that is a reason for obscure problems like this :-/ > > If you believe that the examples should tell more about how FCGI > connectors work, feel free to write some comment to put at the > beginning of the files and send it to me. Yes, I must admint that my knowledge of the FCGI protocol is limited. I will gladly do this once I get to the bottom of this problem.

You have to configure your web server so it contact localhost:1200 when you request the URL you want. According to http://www.fastcgi.com/mod_fastcgi/docs/mod_fastcgi.html it should be someting like FastCgiExternalServer path/to/url -host localhost:1200 Hope it helps, C. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Add to your apache conf FastCgiExternalServer /var/www/fcgi -host localhost:1200 where /var/www is directory where apache looks for files (see the error log for the filename that is sought after point 3. if it fails with "Not found"). Restart Apache. REM: the file /var/www/fcgi need not to exist. 2. Launch ./counter.fcgi 3. Point your browser to http://localhost/fcgi C. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
