NAME
Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::lighttpd::FastCGI - Deploying Catalyst with lighttpd Lighttpd These configurations were tested with Lighttpd 1.4.7. Standalone server mode server.document-root = "/var/www/MyApp/root" fastcgi.server = ( "" => ( "MyApp" => ( "socket" => "/tmp/myapp.socket", "check-local" => "disable" ) ) ) Static mode server.document-root = "/var/www/MyApp/root" fastcgi.server = ( "" => ( "MyApp" => ( "socket" => "/tmp/myapp.socket", "check-local" => "disable", "bin-path" => "/var/www/MyApp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl", "min-procs" => 2, "max-procs" => 5, "idle-timeout" => 20 ) ) ) Note that in newer versions of lighttpd, the min-procs and idle-timeout values are disabled. The above example would start 5 processes. Non-root configuration You can also run your application at any non-root location with either of the above modes. Note the required mod_rewrite rule. url.rewrite = ( "myapp$" => "myapp/" ) fastcgi.server = ( "/myapp" => ( "MyApp" => ( # same as above ) ) ) For more information on using FastCGI under Lighttpd, visit <http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/fastcgi.html> Static file handling Static files can be served directly by lighttpd for a performance boost. $HTTP["url"] !~ "^/(?:img/|static/|css/|favicon.ico$)" { fastcgi.server = ( "" => ( "MyApp" => ( "socket" => "/tmp/myapp.socket", "check-local" => "disable", ) ) ) } This will serve everything in the "img", "static", and "css" directories statically, as well as the favicon file.
