|

============
|
||||
|
||||
To use Django with Apache and FastCGI, you'll need Apache installed and
|
||||
configured, with mod_fastcgi installed and enabled. Consult the Apache
|
||||
configured, with `mod_fastcgi`_ installed and enabled. Consult the Apache
|
||||
documentation for instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
Add the following to your ``httpd.conf``::
|
||||
Once you've got that set up, point Apache at your Django FastCGI instance by
|
||||
editing the ``httpd.conf`` (Apache configuration) file. You'll need to do two
|
||||
things:
|
||||
|
||||
# Connect to FastCGI via a socket / named pipe
|
||||
* Use the ``FastCGIExternalServer`` directive to specify the location of
|
||||
your FastCGI server.
|
||||
* Use ``mod_rewrite`` to point URLs at FastCGI as appropriate.

|
||||
|
||||
Specifying the location of the FastCGI server
|
||||
---------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The ``FastCGIExternalServer`` directive tells Apache how to find your FastCGI
|
||||
server. As the `FastCGIExternalServer docs`_ explain, you can specify either a
|
||||
``socket`` or a ``host``. Here are examples of both::
|
||||
|
||||
# Connect to FastCGI via a socket / named pipe.
|
||||
FastCGIExternalServer /home/user/public_html/mysite.fcgi -socket /home/user/mysite.sock
|
||||
# Connect to FastCGI via a TCP host/port
|
||||
# FastCGIExternalServer /home/user/public_html/mysite.fcgi -host 127.0.0.1:3033
|
||||
|
||||
<VirtualHost 64.92.160.91>
|
||||
ServerName mysite.com
|
||||
# Connect to FastCGI via a TCP host/port.
|
||||
FastCGIExternalServer /home/user/public_html/mysite.fcgi -host 127.0.0.1:3033
|
||||
|
||||
In either case, the file ``/home/user/public_html/mysite.fcgi`` doesn't
|
||||
actually have to exist. It's just a URL used by the Web server internally -- a
|
||||
hook for signifying which requests at a URL should be handled by FastCGI. (More
|
||||
on this in the next section.)
|
||||
|
||||
.. _FastCGIExternalServer docs: http://www.fastcgi.com/mod_fastcgi/docs/mod_fastcgi.html#FastCgiExternalServer
|
||||
|
||||
Using mod_rewrite to point URLs at FastCGI
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The second step is telling Apache to use FastCGI for URLs that match a certain
|
||||
pattern. To do this, use the `mod_rewrite`_ module and rewrite URLs to
|
||||
``mysite.fcgi`` (or whatever you specified in the ``FastCGIExternalServer``
|
||||
directive, as explained in the previous section).
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, we tell Apache to use FastCGI to handle any request that
|
||||
doesn't represent a file on the filesystem and doesn't start with ``/media/``.
|
||||
This is probably the most common case, if you're using Django's admin site::
|
||||
|
||||
<VirtualHost 12.34.56.78>
|
||||
ServerName example.com
|
||||
DocumentRoot /home/user/public_html
|
||||
Alias /media /home/user/python/django/contrib/admin/media
|
||||
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /mysite.fcgi/$1 [QSA,L]

</VirtualHost>
|
||||
|
||||
Note that while you have to specify a mysite.fcgi, that this file doesn't
|
||||
actually have to exist. It is just an internal URL to the webserver which
|
||||
signifies that any requests to that URL will go to the external FastCGI
|
||||
server.

==============

|

LigHTTPd is a light-weight asynchronous web-server, which is commonly used
|
||||
for serving static files. However, it supports FastCGI natively, and as such
|

is a very good choice for serving both static and dynamic media, if your site

does not have any apache-specific components.
