Using FastCGI for PHP on Mac OS X

  • 772

I have apache2 running on a Mac OS X (10.6) machine, and it is currently serving PHP pages fine, using php5_module but I would like to configure fastcgi_module to handle the php pages.

I have tried using the configuration found on www.fastcgi.com but I get the following error:

[warn] FastCGI: (dynamic) server "/Path/to/script.php" has failed to remain running for 30 seconds given 3 attempts, its restart interval has been backed off to 600 seconds
[warn] FastCGI: server "/usr/bin/php" has failed to remain running for 30 seconds given 3 attempts, its restart interval has been backed off to 600 seconds

I'm thinking this is because PHP has not been compiled with FastCGI, but seeing as it came with Mac OS X i'm not sure how to recompile it. Is this the problem? And if so, how do I recompile PHP with FastCGI?

php mac-osx apache-2.2 fastcgi

  1. you might try /usr/bin/php5-cgi instead, which is not only for cgi but also for fastcgi. This applies to standard debian, but it probably works on OS X too.
