Hi list<br><br>Im trying to configure MS4W with fastcgi module.<br>I read the following instructions but allways sends to me an error 500. In error logs appears the followin lines:<br><br>[Thu May 24 15:18:47 2007] [info] mod_fcgid: server D:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/fcgid/mapserv.exe(1204) started

1.40 on<br>Windows Server 2003 R2 SP1. Here is what I had to do:<br><br>1. Downloaded the mod_fcgid.so binary build from:<br><a href="http://www.apachelounge.com/download/mods/mod_fcgid-2.1-w32.zip">http://www.apachelounge.com/download/mods/mod_fcgid-2.1-w32.zip
</a><br><br>2. Placed the mod_fcgid.so on Apache's modules directory<br><br>3. Placed the httpd.exe.manifest file on Apache's bin directory (this<br>file comes in the fcgid binary distribution from Apache Lounge)<br>
<br>4. Copied the entire contents of the cgi-bin directory to htdocs/fcgid<br>(should probably move this so that it is parallel with cgi-bin)<br><br>5. Added the following lines to the Apache httpd.conf (these assume that
<br>you have ms4w on the c: drive and Windows installed on C:\Windows):<br><br>LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so<br># set environment vars necessary for MapServer<br>DefaultInitEnv PROJ_LIB "c:/ms4w/proj/nad/"
<br>DefaultInitEnv PATH<br>"c:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/fcgid;c:/WINDOWS/system32;c:/WINDOWS;c:/WINDOWS/S<br>ystem32/Wbem;"<br>DefaultInitEnv windir "c:/WINDOWS"<br>DefaultInitEnv SystemRoot "c:/Windows"
<br>DefaultInitEnv SystemDrive "c:"<br>DefaultInitEnv GDAL_DATA "c:/ms4w/gdaldata"<br>DefaultInitEnv GDAL_DRIVER_PATH "c:/ms4w/gdalplugins"<br>DefaultInitEnv TMP "c:/ms4w/tmp"<br><Location /fcgid>
<br> SetHandler fcgid-script<br> Options execCGI<br> AllowOverride None<br> Order allow,deny<br> Allow from all<br></Location><br><br>6. Restarted Apache<br><br>7. Changed the MapServer http calls from
<br><a href="http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe">http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe</a> to <a href="http://server/fcgid/mapserv.exe">http://server/fcgid/mapserv.exe</a><br><br>8. To benefit from the persistence of mapserv.exe
in fastCGI mode you<br>should add the following line to the LAYER sections in your map files<br>with expensice connections (e.g. PostGIS, ArcSDE, etc):<br> PROCESSING "CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER"<br><br>That's it! After getting this working I saw a four-fold improvement on
<br>the drawing of maps (from 0.4 to 0.1 second on average, using a large<br>PostGIS database with the entire US's street network and other<br>background layers).<br><br>I hope this helps other people out there trying to use MapServer in
<br>fastCGI mode and without the resources to build fcgi-2.4.0 from scratch.<br><br>M<br><br>--------------<br>Marcelo Simas Oliveira<br>GeoStats LP<br>530 Means St., Ste. 310<br>Atlanta, Georgia 30318<br>(404) 588-1004<br>

</a><br>Subject: Anybody used mod_fcgid with MS4W<br><br><br>Hello,<br><br>I am experimenting with MS4W 1.40 mod_fcgid<br>(<a href="http://fastcgi.coremail.cn/">http://fastcgi.coremail.cn/</a>) and it keeps giving the following error
<br>when trying to connect to PostGIS:<br><br>msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'States'.<br>msPOSTGISLayerOpen(): Query error. couldnt make connection to DB with<br>connect string 'user=postgres password=********* host=cabral port=5432
<br>dbname=gisdata'.<br><br>Error reported was 'could not translate host name &quot;cabral&quot; to<br>address: Unknown host '.<br><br>Has anybody seen this before, or let me rephrase that, has anybody
<br>experimented with mod_fcgid before?<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>M<br><br>--------------<br>Marcelo Simas Oliveira<br>GeoStats LP<br>530 Means St., Ste. 310<br>Atlanta, Georgia 30318<br>(404) 588-1004<br><a href="http://www.geostats.com">
