[Rails] Setting up FastCGI on Red Hat Linux

[Brian L.]

Do you have something like this in your apache config? If not, you
probably need to put it there.
-----

LoadModule fastcgi_module     modules/mod_fastcgi.so
AddModule mod_fastcgi.c

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
    FastCgiIpcDir /tmp/fcgi_ipc/
    AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
</IfModule>

-----
It sounds like apache isn't configured to use fcgi. If that AddHandler
line isn't there then it won't know what to do with files with a .fcgi
extension.

The years ahead pick up their dark bags.
They move closer. There's a slight rise in the silence

then nothing.
