FastCgiExternalServer command is not recognized.

I use 2015 port in my Fast CGI. I use Listen command.

are you using apache? which OS?
focus on port HTTP port 80 first.

the listen directive define the port apache use to talk to browser. not FCGI. usually the listen directive is already defined in the default config. both 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS.

the FastCgiExternalServer directive is inside <IfModule mod_fastcgi.c> block, which is only valid if
LoadModule fastcgi_module "modules/mod_fastcgi.so" is also defined.
FastCgiExternalServer tell apache to use the specified port number to talk to the FCGI program.

browser -> port 80 -> apache -> port 2015 -> FCGI

so apache "listen" to port 80, and FCGI "listen" to port 2015.

I use this config :
LoadModule fastcgi_module "/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_fastcgi.so"

<Directory /var/www/cgi-bin>
Options All
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks

   SetHandler fcgid-script
   AddHandler fcgid-script .cgi
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

FastCgiExternalServer "/var/www/cgi-bin/cgi2015.cgi" -host 127.0.0.1:2015 -idle-timeout 30 -flush

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin "/var/www/cgi-bin"

I got that it is unable to connect. After it has no header. But i have created a response.

Here is the main unit :

program fcgihellow;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

uses
  fpFCGI, u_hellofcgi;

begin
  Application.Title:='fcgihellow';
  { Uncomment the port setting here if you want to run the
    FastCGI application stand-alone (e.g. for NGINX) }
  Application.Port:=2015; // For example
  Application.Initialize;
  Application.Run;
end.
               

Here is the web module :

unit u_hellofcgi;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

interface

uses
  SysUtils, Classes, httpdefs, fpHTTP, fpWeb;

type

  { TFPWebModule1 }

  TFPWebModule1 = class(TFPWebModule)
    procedure DataModuleRequest(Sender: TObject; ARequest: TRequest;
      AResponse: TResponse; var Handled: Boolean);
  private

  public

  end;

var
  FPWebModule1: TFPWebModule1;

implementation

{$R *.lfm}

{ TFPWebModule1 }

procedure TFPWebModule1.DataModuleRequest(Sender: TObject; ARequest: TRequest;
  AResponse: TResponse; var Handled: Boolean);
var
  LName: String;
begin
  LName := ARequest.QueryFields.Values['Name'];
  if LName = EmptyStr then
    with AResponse.Contents do
    begin
      Add('<form action="' + ARequest.URI + '" method="GET"');
      Add('<label for="name">Please tell me your name:</label>');
      Add('<input type="text" name="name" id="name" />');
      Add('<input type="submit" value="Send" />');
      Add('</form>');
    end
  else
    AResponse.Content := 'Hello World, ' + LName + '!';
  Handled := true;
end;

initialization
  RegisterHTTPModule('TFPWebModule1', TFPWebModule1);
end.

you should inspect error from apache error log to find what is wrong.

if you use Apache mod_proxy_fcgi, you can setup virtual host using ProxyPassMatch as follows
Code: XML  [Select][+][-]
  1. <VirtualHost *:80>
  2.      ServerName www.example.com
  3.      DocumentRoot /path/to/app/public
  4.  
  5.      <Directory "/path/to/app/public">
  6.          Options +ExecCGI
  7.          AllowOverride FileInfo
  8.          Require all granted
  9.      </Directory>
  10.  
  11.     ProxyRequests Off
  12.     ProxyPassMatch /(css|images|js).* !
  13.     ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:2015
  14. </VirtualHost>
  15.  

mod_proxy_fcgi is built-in module since Apache 2.4, you just need to enable it. For example on Debian Linux

Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]
  1. $ sudo a2enmod proxy_fcgi
  2.  

Code: XML  [Select][+][-]
  1.     ProxyRequests Off
  2.     ProxyPassMatch /(css|images|js).* !
  3.     ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:2015
  4.  

First line turn off forward proxy. Second line tells Apache to serve any files from css, images or js directory in document root directly. Third line tells Apache to pass everything else to application listen on 127.0.0.1 port 2015. "fcgi:" tells mod_proxy to use mod_proxy_fcgi.

You need to check if

  • Apache and application is on same server
  • application does run and listen on specified port

To check if application listen on correct port

Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]
  1. $ netstat -tunlp | grep 127.0.0.1:2015

If netstat command above shows no result, it means your application is not running. That is why Apache cannot connect to your application. You need to run application first.

I have no experience with Apache, and I can run FCGI modules on IIS - Windows 10 successfully.

Logically thinking, IIS runs FCGI program so I do not assign separate port -- I think the same applies to Apache. Separate port is necessary to run it as HTTP server, which responses directly, not via IIS or Apache. 

First, test with following main program.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. begin
  2.    Application.Title:='fcgihellow';
  3.   { Uncomment the port setting here if you want to run the
  4.     FastCGI application stand-alone (e.g. for NGINX) }
  5.   // Application.Port:=2015; // For example
  6.  
  7.    LegacyRouting:= True;
  8.    Application.Initialize;
  9.    Application.Run;
  10. end.
  11.  

In IIS, I have to set Handler Mappings --- I have to add mapping for the application program. Don't know how to do this in Apache.

Important thing is that allowPathInfo should be set TRUE. Again, no idea whether this is applicable to Apache.

But as I posted in other posts, Free Pascal fCGI model is not perfect --- I believe it has some problem in memory management. (the author acknowledges this). 

Anyway please let me know your result. I'd like to have as many developers of Lazarus webserver as possible.^^
