Questions tagged [spawn-fcgi]

spawn-fcgi is used to spawn remote and local FastCGI processes.

Reasons why you may want to use spawn-fcgi instead of something else:

  • Privilege separation without needing a suid-binary or running a server as root.
  • You can restart your web server and the FastCGI applications without restarting the others.
  • You can run them in different chroot()s.

  • Running your FastCGI applications doesn't depend on the web server you are running, which allows for easier testing of other web servers.
