Title: mod_fastCGI
Post by: Rick on February 28, 2002, 01:16:23 PM

I need to install mod_fastCGI  (www.fastcgi.com) on my Mitel SME 5.1 server. I guess the best way to do it is to install as DSO. I need apxs for that. This is not part of the SME distribution as far as I know. Does someone know how to do this?

You'd have to build it on another machine, because apxs just calls a compiler
with the appropriate arguments. I've got an RPM of mod_fastcgi that I'd built
to use with RT that should work with 5.1.2; it should appear within an hour at

ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/RichLafferty/RPMS/i386/mod_fastcgi-2.2.12-1rt.i386.rpm

Please keep in mind that this is unsupported and untested and is provided
by me personally, and not by Mitel Networks. More specifically, this is "I have
this, you may as well try it", and not "Here's an RPM I built for other people
to use". :-)

I hadn't added any httpd.conf frobbing to its %post, so you'll need to create a
custom template with the appropriate AddModule and LoadModule directives.

Cheers,

Rich,

Thanks very much for the quick respons. I'll try it tomorrow when I'm at the office.
