Re^2: fastcgi without the module

I have strict, what I meant is that you need to install an extra package to get it. Everything is split into tiny packages and often the dependencies are not properly reflected.

I may try to get cpan to work but probably I cannot really be bothered too much as for the little think I want to do cgi would be good enough...

Aaah; I misunderstood / read that as you were trying to make do without all of the bits. In that case then Mojolicious and I'm sure the other frameworks like Dancer2 usually come with their own http server implementations (Plack mentioned above too) which will run your application (and to some degree also serve flat files) directly which would eliminate the need to run apache (or lighttpd or . . .) with fastcgi. That might be another route to look into. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie.	[reply]
