Good evening,After much hair pulling I've found my particular bug with fastcgi on Windows Apache. I thought I would share with the community.
Any fastcgi binary application compiled with Microsoft (msvc 8, etc) compilers and running against a mod_fastcgi compiled under cygwin with a version of 1.5.24 or earlier will fail. The cygwin libraries do not emulate dup2() in such a way that the duplicated handle is reliably inheritable by a child process. This causes the fastcgi application to fail if it uses a tcp/ip connection for interprocess communication.
There's a discussion of the problem here: http://www.nabble.com/Socket-inheritance-with-fork-dup2-exec-td11243160.html Jay Sprenkle --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
