I am trying to get Rails running through Lighttpd, on a Suse 10 box
running Rails 1.0.0 and Lighttpd 1.4.10
I followed the instructions in the wiki
(http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/Lighttpd) but keep getting the
same error:
linux:/etc/lighttpd # lighttpd -f lighttpd.conf
2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.997) execve failed for:
/home/nathan/rails/notifications/public/dispatch.fcgi No such file or
directory
linux:/etc/lighttpd # 2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.1023) the
fastcgi-backend /home/nathan/rails/notifications/public/dispatch.fcgi
failed to start:
2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.1027) child exited with status 2
/home/nathan/rails/notifications/public/dispatch.fcgi
2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.1030) if you try do run PHP as
FastCGI backend make sure you use the FastCGI enabled version.
You can find out if it is the right one by executing ''php -v''
and it
should display ''(cgi-fcgi)'' in the output, NOT (cgi) NOR (cli)
For more information check
http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/fastcgi.html#preparing-php-as-a-fa
stcgi-program
2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.1035) If this is PHP on Gentoo add
fastcgi to the USE flags
2006-02-27 12:32:17: (mod_fastcgi.c.1325) [ERROR]: spawning fcgi failed.
2006-02-27 12:32:17: (server.c.834) Configuration of plugins failed.
Going down.
This is my lighttpd.conf file:
#--------------------------
server.port = 80
server.modules = ( "mod_rewrite", "mod_fastcgi",
"mod_redirect" )
server.document-root = "/home/nathan/rails/notifications/public"
fastcgi.server = (".fcgi" => ( "railsapp" =>
( "min-procs" => 1,
"max-procs" => 5,
"socket" => "/tmp/ruby-railsapp.fcgi",
"bin-path" =>
"/home/nathan/rails/notifications/public/dispatch.fcgi"
)
))
server.indexfiles = ( "index.html" )
server.error-handler-404 = "/dispatch.fcgi"
#------------------------------
Dispatch.fcgi is *definitely* in the /public directory.
Can anyone help out and point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Ten bucks to a rusty penny dispatch.fcgi either isn''t there or the shebang points to a Ruby interpreter that doesn''t exist. - Matt -- A byte walks into a bar and orders a pint.

Thanks for the info, the shebang fix did the trick. Lighttpd starts, but Rails pages do not load. When I go to the URL http://localhost/notification/ nothing happens. Lighttpd spins its wheels for a few moments, and then silently fails. No error messages in server.log or fastcgi.crash.log, no output to the screen, nothing. All of the shebang lines throughout the app have been fixed. Could this be a permissions problem? And where could it be localized to? What else could cause Lighttpd to silently die like this? Thanks!

Clear out your /tmp/ruby-sess* files when you get the blank screen like that. -Ezra On Feb 27, 2006, at 12:15 PM, Nathan Mealey wrote:> Thanks for the info, the shebang fix did the trick. > > Lighttpd starts, but Rails pages do not load.
