## nginx
* To run CGI under nginx, just use a FastCGI wrapper like [this one](http://technotes.1000lines.net/?p=23). The wrapper must be started somehow just like any other FastCGI program. I use launchd on OSX.
To run CGI under nginx, just use a FastCGI wrapper like [this one](http://technotes.1000lines.net/?p=23). The wrapper must be started somehow just like any other FastCGI program. I use launchd on OSX.
In Linux, you will need the spawn-fcgi and fcgiwrap packages and start
them with:
spawn-fcgi -s /tmp/fcgi.socket -n -- /usr/sbin/fcgiwrap
This needs to be ran as your user. It can be added to `inittab` or
made into a startup script in `init.d`.
Then you need an nginx config plugged in that wrapper. Here's an
example virtual host configuration:
server {
#listen 80; ## listen for ipv4; this line is default and implied
#listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; ## listen for ipv6
root /home/anarcat/public_html/wiki.reseaulibre.ca/;
index index.html index.htm;
# Make site accessible from http://localhost/
server_name wiki.reseaulibre.ca;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
}
location /ikiwiki.cgi {
fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/fcgi.socket;
fastcgi_index ikiwiki.cgi;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /home/anarcat/public_html/ikiwiki.cgi;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT /home/anarcat/public_html/wiki.reseaulibre.ca;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
