|  | <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> |

|  | response, if the response status is <code>OK</code> (<code>200</code>) and | 
|  | the response contains a <code>Location</code> header and its value starts | 
|  | with a slash (<code>/</code>). This value is interpreted as a new local |

|  | <p>The <code class="directive">ProxySCGISendfile</code> directive enables the | 
|  | SCGI backend to let files serve directly by the gateway. This is useful | 
|  | performance purposes -- the httpd can use <code>sendfile</code> or other | 
|  | optimizations, which are not possible if the file comes over the backend | 
|  | socket.</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 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 | 
|  | the argument is applied as header name.</dd> |
