C language FastCGI with Nginx
I am attempting to run a fastcgi app written in 开发者_运维问答C language behind the Nginx web server. The web browser never finishes loading and the response never completes. I am not sure how to approach it and debug. Any insight would be appreciated.
The hello world application was taken from fastcgi.com and simplified to look like this:
#include "fcgi_stdio.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void)
{
while(FCGI_Accept >= 0)
{
printf("Content-type: text/html\r\nStatus: 200 OK\r\n\r\n");
}
return 0;
}
Output executable is executed with either one of:
cgi-fcgi -connect 127.0.0.1:9000 a.out
or
spawn-fcgi -a120.0.0.1 -p9000 -n ./a.out
Nginx configuration is:
server {
listen 80;
server_name _;
location / {
# host and port to fastcgi server
root /home/user/www;
index index.html;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
}
}
You need to call FCGI_Accept
in the while
loop:
while(FCGI_Accept() >= 0)
You have FCGI_Accept >= 0
in your code. I think that results in the address of the FCGI_Accept
function being compared to 0
. Since the function exists, the comparison is never false, but the function is not being invoked.
Here's a great example of nginx, ubuntu, c++ and fastcgi.

If you want to run his code, I've put it into a git repo with instructions. You can check it out and run it for yourself. I've only tested it on Ubuntu.

After your application handles fastcgi-requests correctly, you need to take care of starting the application. nginx will never spawn fcgi processes itself, so you need a daemon taking care of that.
I recommend using uwsgi for managing fcgi processes. It is capable of spawning worker-processes that are ready for input, and restarting them when they die. It is highly configurable and easy to install and use.
http://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
Here is my config:
[uwsgi]
fastcgi-socket = /var/run/apc.sock
protocol = fastcgi
worker-exec = /home/app/src/apc.bin
spooler = /home/app/spooler/
processes = 15
enable-threads = true
master = true
chdir = /home/app/
chmod-socket = 777
This integrates nicely as systemd service, but can also run without.
Try with:
$ cgi-fcgi -start -connect localhost:9000 ./hello
It works for me. I'm using archlinux and following the instructions at:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nginx
You can try this https://github.com/Taymindis/ngx-c-handler
It is built on top on fastcgi, It handle multiple request, and there are some core feature as well. It can handler function mapping with nginx.
