| <h3>Summary</h3> |
| |
| <p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code>. It provides support for the |
| <a href="http://python.ca/scgi/protocol.txt">SCGI protocol, version |
| 1</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>Thus, in order to get the ability of handling the SCGI protocol, |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code> and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_scgi.html">mod_proxy_scgi</a></code> have to |
| be present in the server.</p> |
| |
| <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3> |
| <p>Do not enable proxying until you have <a href="mod_proxy.html#access">secured your server</a>. Open proxy |
| servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at |
| large.</p> |

| <p>Remember, in order to make the following examples work, you have to |
| enable <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code> and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_scgi.html">mod_proxy_scgi</a></code>.</p> |

| </div> |
| |
| <p>The balanced gateway needs <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html">mod_proxy_balancer</a></code> and |
| at least one load balancer algorithm module, such as |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_lbmethod_byrequests.html">mod_lbmethod_byrequests</a></code>, in addition to the proxy |
| modules listed above. <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_lbmethod_byrequests.html">mod_lbmethod_byrequests</a></code> is the |
| default, and will be used for this example configuration.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Balanced gateway</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">ProxyPass "/scgi-bin/" "balancer://somecluster/" |
| <Proxy balancer://somecluster> |

| <p>In addition to the configuration directives that control the |
| behaviour of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code>, an <dfn>environment |
| variable</dfn> may also control the SCGI protocol |
| provider:</p> |
| <dl> |
| <dt>proxy-scgi-pathinfo</dt> |
| <dd>By default <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_scgi.html">mod_proxy_scgi</a></code> will neither create |
| nor export the <var>PATH_INFO</var> environment variable. This allows |
| the backend SCGI server to correctly determine <var>SCRIPT_NAME</var> |
| and <var>Script-URI</var> and be compliant with RFC 3875 section 3.3. |
| If instead you need <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_scgi.html">mod_proxy_scgi</a></code> to generate |
| a "best guess" for <var>PATH_INFO</var>, set this env-var. The |
| variable must be set before <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_env.html#setenv">SetEnv</a></code> |
| is effective. <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_setenvif.html#setenvif">SetEnvIf</a></code> can be |

| <p>The <code class="directive">ProxySCGIInternalRedirect</code> enables the backend |
| to internally redirect the gateway to a different URL. This feature |
| originates in <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code>, which internally redirects the |
| response if the response status is <code>OK</code> (<code>200</code>) and |
| the response contains a <code>Location</code> (or configured alternate |
| header) and its value starts with a slash (<code>/</code>). This value is |
| interpreted as a new local URL that Apache httpd internally redirects to.</p> |
| |
| <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy_scgi.html">mod_proxy_scgi</a></code> does the same as |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code> in this regard, except that you can turn off the |

| <p>The <code class="directive">ProxySCGISendfile</code> directive enables the |
| SCGI backend to let files be served directly by the gateway. This is useful |
| for performance purposes — httpd can use <code>sendfile</code> or other |
| optimizations, which are not possible if the file comes over the backend |
| socket. Additionally, the file contents are not transmitted twice.</p> |
| <p>The <code class="directive">ProxySCGISendfile</code> argument determines the |
| gateway behaviour:</p> |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>Off</code></dt> |
| <dd>No special handling takes place.</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>On</code></dt> |
| <dd>The gateway looks for a backend response header called |
| <code>X-Sendfile</code> and interprets the value as the filename to serve. |
| The header is removed from the final response headers. This is equivalent to |
| <code>ProxySCGISendfile X-Sendfile</code>.</dd> |
| |
| <dt>anything else</dt> |
| <dd>Similar to <code>On</code>, but instead of the hardcoded header name |
| <code>X-Sendfile</code>, the argument is used as the header name.</dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config"># Use the default header (X-Sendfile) |
| ProxySCGISendfile On |
