Public bug reported: If I enable FastCGI in Lighttpd, Lighty crashes because FastCGI's configuration refers to a missing socket file: /tmp/php.socket
In the errors log file, people will find something like: ===== 2008-05-30 12:40:58: (log.c.75) server started 2008-05-30 12:40:58: (mod_fastcgi.c.1029) the fastcgi-backend /usr/bin/php-cgi failed to start: 2008-05-30 12:40:58: (mod_fastcgi.c.1033) child exited with status 9 /usr/bin/php-cgi 2008-05-30 12:40:58: (mod_fastcgi.c.1036) If you're trying to run PHP as a FastCGI backend, make sure you're using the FastCGI-enabled version. You can find out if it is the right one by executing 'php -v' and it should display '(cgi-fcgi)' in the output, NOT '(cgi)' NOR '(cli)'.
