Well, I'll give it a go...
I just downloaded the latest cygwin + gnu toolset. The lighttpd package is also
installed.
I also downloaded and built the fastcgi dev. Kit
(http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/fcgi.tar.gz)
I then grabbed the latest 4.3.8 php source tarball, un-tarred it and built it as
follows:
# ./configure --enable-fastcgi --enable-force-cgi-redirect --with-layout=GNU
--with-pgsql
# make
# make install
# php -v
PHP 4.3.8 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Sep 22 2004 00:46:39)
Copyright (c) 1997-2004 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2004 Zend Technologies
Well, that seems to work.
I then downloaded and installed spawn-fcgi from the lighttpd project download
page and built and installed it.
(http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/lighttpd/download/spawn-fcgi-1.2.0.tar.gz)
I ran the PHP fastcgi interface like this:
# spawn-fcgi.exe -f /usr/local/bin/php -p 1026 -C 5
spawn-fcgi.c.150: child spawned successfully: PID: 5824
I also grabbed the spawn-php.sh example script
(http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/lighttpd/download/spawn-php.sh) but this didn't
seem to work.
I then configured lighttpd to use the fastcgi for php and created sample file
info.php in the home directory of the web site containing:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
When I opened by web browser to localhost I saw the php configuration page. It
works!
Not sure where to go with this now - I'll try setting up a php application that
uses a database or something.
Any suggestions?
R.
