X-LIGHTTPD-send-file is not working

Hi,

X-LIGHTTPD-send-file option is not working on linux.

Lighttpd : 1.14.18
Build and version info: lighttpd-1.4.15 - a light and fast webserver and lua
lighttpd.conf part

fastcgi.server = ( 
           "dgraph" => (
          (
           "socket" => "/tmp/fcgi.dgraph.socket",
           "bin-path" => "/path/excustable/file" 
           "min-procs" => 1,
           "max-procs" => 1,
           "allow-x-send-file" => "enable" 
           }
         )
       )

I am getting following result while using X-LIGHTTPD-send-file option.

Case 1 : sample.c

printf( "Content-Type: image/png\n\n" );
          printf( "X-LIGHTTPD-send-file: %s \n\n" , png_file_path.c_str() );
          printf( "\n\n" );

Result :
It reutrn output in text file as below

X-LIGHTTPD-send-file: /tmp/doc_root/I/B/I.png

Case 2: sample.c
printf( "Content-Type: image/png\r\n" );
printf( "X-LIGHTTPD-send-file: %s \r\n" , png_file_path.c_str() );
printf( "\r\n" );

Result :
It reutns borken image

I both case difference in only "\r" in printf statement.

Anyone is having working expample of X-LIGHTTPD-send-file option.

Double \n marks the end of the headers. Use a single \n and then an additional \n at the end.

printf( "Content-Type: image/png\n" );
printf( "X-LIGHTTPD-send-file: %s \n" , png_file_path.c_str() );
printf( "\n" );

Can you guys point to lighttpd general flow diagram ?
e.g
mod_magnet allow us to make modification in URL and pass it to application.
Do we have any module that can control after execution of application code?

just trying to find out X-LIGHTTPD-send-file alternate option
