Apache 2.4: mod_proxy

With Apache 2.4, mod_proxy_fcgi is used.

Note: Assume the Genero Application Server is installed in the following directory (FGLASDIR): /opt/gas. Make the appropriate substitution for the FGLASDIR when applying these examples to your own configuration.

Apache 2.4 does not officially support mod_fastcgi, use mod_proxy_fcgi instead. This module requires Genero Application Server 2.50 (or later).

Note: For more information on the Apache Module mod_proxy_fcgi, please refer to the Apache documentation.

Find the httpd.conf file. For example, it might be located in /etc/apache2/.

Add to the httpd.conf file:

...
<IfModule mod_proxy_fcgi.c>
  #No PATH_INFO with mod_proxy_fcgi unless this is set
  SetEnvIf Request_URI . proxy-fcgi-pathinfo=1

  ProxyPass /gas/ fcgi://localhost:6394/
  Alias /gas /opt/gas/bin/fastcgidispatch 
</IfModule>
...

In this excerpt:

localhost is where the fastcgidispatch is running
6394 is the port where fastcgidispatch is running

Start fastcgidispatch in standalone mode: fastcgidispatch -s. If this dispatcher fails, it must be restarted manually. If the fastcgidispatch program fails, configure the inittab to spawn the fastcgidispatch program.
