Description

This package provides a simple FastCGI wrapper for CGI scripts with/ following features: - very lightweight (84KB of private memory per instance) - fixes broken CR/LF in headers - handles environment in a sane way (CGI scripts get HTTP-related environment vars from FastCGI parameters and inherit all the others from environment of fcgiwrap ) - no configuration, so you can run several sites off the same fcgiwrap pool - passes CGI std error output to std error stream of cgiwrap or FastCGI - support systemd socket activation, launcher program like spawn-fcgi is no longer required on systemd-enabled distributions

Built for AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, Oracle Linux and RHEL.
