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
                   )
               )
           )

   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.
