[Catalyst] Lighttpd and fastcgi

[Daisuke Murase]

Hmm. I have setting shows below when cat app on web-server root:

    $HTTP["host"] == "myapp.example.com" {
        server.document-root = "/path/to/MyApp"
    
        $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/" {
            setenv.add-environment = ( "SCRIPT_NAME" => "/" )
        }
    
        url.rewrite-once = (
            "^/((?:js/|css/|image/|static/).*)" => "/root/$1",
            "^/(?!js/|css/|image/|static/)(.*)" => "/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl/$1"
        )
    
        fastcgi.server = (
            "/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl" => (
                "myapp" => (
                    "socket"    => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
                    "bin-path"  => "/path/to/MyApp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl",
                    "min-procs" => 1,
                    "max-procs" => 1,
                    "idle-timeout" => 20,
                )
            )
        )
    }


Yes, I know it's a bit verbose..
But I think this sample may helps you, so wrote it :)
