[mapserver-users] fastcgi/no-fastcgi
While reorganizing my OSX build setup, it occurred to me that I might simplify the mapserv CGI build. I've been compiling 2 separate mapserv binaries for with/without fastcgi. Question: if I build mapserv CGI with fastcgi support, can it still run as a normal CGI if desired? - William Kyngesburye kyngchaos*at*kyngchaos*dot*com http://www.kyngchaos.com/ Earth: Mostly harmless - revised entry in the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

I don't think 2 mapserv binaries are necessary. For MS4W it will be one mapserv binary, but Apache will be configured for 2 different script aliases for the cgi-bin directory (one with fastcgi settings and one without). So to answer your question: yes a fastcgi-compiled mapserv can run as a normal cgi. --- Jeff McKenna FOSS4G Consulting and Training Services http://www.gatewaygeomatics.com/ ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

So to answer your question: yes a fastcgi- compiled mapserv can run as a normal cgi. So, without the Apache configuration to load and configure the apache fastcgi module, mapserv-fcgi would run as a normal CGI? Makes sense I guess. Took me a while for this to occur to me ;) Sure simplifies compilation (once, not twice). - William Kyngesburye kyngchaos*at*kyngchaos*dot*com http://www.kyngchaos.com/ Time is an illusion - lunchtime doubly so. - Ford Prefect ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
