Problem

Earlier today I did a "sudo gem install fcgi" because I new fcgi ruby gem
was supposedly released that fixed some things like a bad memory leak. Upon
apache restart, fcgi would not work. This came up with some errors "No
definition for fcgi_finish" and many like it, although it reported success.

the log files say:

[Thu Jun 16 14:59:02 2005] [error] [client xx.169.85.248] FastCGI: comm with
(dynamic) server "/home/polarity/public/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: 
(first read) idle timeout (30 sec)
[Thu Jun 16 14:59:02 2005] [error] [client xx.169.85.248] FastCGI: 
incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server
"/home/polarity/public/dispatch.fcgi"

My original FastCGI install steps (done 2 months ago, worked the entire
time)

# wget  <http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/mod_fastcgi-2.4.2.tar.gz>
http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/mod_fastcgi-2.4.2.tar.gz

# tar xvzf mod_fastcgi-2.4.2.tar.gz

# cd mod_fastcgi-2.4.2

# /usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -o mod_fastcgi.so -c *.c

# /usr/local/apache/bin/apxs -i -a -n fastcgi mod_fastcgi.so

This should create an entry in httpd.conf that looks like this:

LoadModule fastcgi_module <some_path>/mod_fastcgi.so

Note that if there's a ClearModuleList directive after new entry,
you'll have to either move the LoadModule after the ClearModuleList
or add (have a look at how the other modules are handled):

AddModule mod_fastcgi.c

3. Edit the httpd configuration file(s) to enable your FastCGI
application(s). See docs/mod_fastcgi.html for details.

If you want to wrap the mod_fastcgi directives, use:

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
.
.
</IfModule>

4. Stop and start the server.

# /etc/init.d/httpd stop
# /etc/init.d/httpd startssl


Any help is appreciated!
