[FastCGI] Setting Up FastCGI
Reported by Martin Grund | March 23rd, 2008 @ 08:33 PM | in 0.9
The current trunk of merb does not really support fast-cgi as an installation option. I added an .htaccess file to support the redirection and had to change the merb.fcgi file to get it up and running.
The changes are documented here
Furthermore I stumbled upon the following problems:
- the merb root path need to be explicitly set in the merb.fcgi file
- I needed to set an INLINEDIR environment variable, that needs special permissions (700), because the Apache I run has no home dir
- There should be an error mechanisms, that recognizes if no merb app could be loaded instead of only throwing exceptions.
Regards,
Martin

Applied slightly modifed version of your patch that will 'just work' out of the box.
verified on apache and lighttpd with fcgi
