Tools¶

spawn-fcgi¶

spawn-fcgi is used to start FastCGI applications; it binds the application to a socket and starts it; it supports useful features like dropping privileges, chowning the Unix domain socket so the webserver can connect to it, chroot and more.

• spawn-fcgi
• spawn-fcgi 2

multiwatch¶

multiwatch is a useful addition to spawn-fcgi; it allows to supervise multiple backends with daemontools+spawn-fcgi+multiwatch on the same socket.

• multiwatch

fcgi-cgi¶

fcgi-cgi is a wrapper to execute CGI scripts/binaries via FastCGI, allowing you to have clean and easy privilege separation (if you start fcgi-cgi with spawn-fcgi).
