hmmm, looks like the same idea (hopefully that's a good sign)... mod_proxy_fcgid in httpd trunk was started from scratch some 4 yrs ago... > Does mod_proxy_fcgi set FCGI_WEB_SERVER_ADDRS as per the FastCGI spec? That should be set when the TCP-based FastCGI application is spawned and checked when a new connection from the web server/gateway is accepted? I see PHP logic to check it, but spawn-fcgi (Lighttpd) and fcgistarter (httpd) don't handle that automatically. (I think you'd need to create a wrapper for your app that sets it, then tell spawn-fcgi/fcgistarter/whatever to run the wrapper.)
