A shell script to start / stop / restart php-cgi as an app server. By default it will bind to 127.0.0.1 IP and 9000 port using spawn-fcgi. This script is tested on CentOS / RHEL / Fedora Linux only. FreeBSD specific version available here.
How do I use this script?
Install spawn-fcgi package using yum command.
Download this script and place in /etc/init.d/ directory as /etc/init.d/php_cgi
# wget http://bash.cyberciti.biz/dl/419.sh.zip -O /etc/init.d/php_cgi
# chmod +x /etc/init.d/php_cgi
php_cgi init.d sysv style script

if you run the web server in the same machine, better you use unix sockets .. modify this couple lines
~24
#server_ip=127.0.0.1
#server_port=9000
server_socket=/var/lib/php/php-cgi.sock
~40
#daemon $spawnfcgi -a ${server_ip} -p ${server_port} -u ${server_user} -g ${server_group} -P ${pidfile} -C ${server_childs} -f ${php_cgi}
daemon $spawnfcgi -s ${server_socket} -u ${server_user} -g ${server_group} -P ${pidfile} -C ${server_childs} -f ${php_cgi}
I have used this script with CentOS 5.5. I have nginx, php5 installed following your tutorial. I installed spawn-fcgi with yum from epel. I have in chkconfig a service called spawn-fcgi and a service called php_cgi.
if i run service spawn-fcgi it doesn’t start whereas service php_cgi start works great!
When the server reboot it does not start php_cgi auomatically..why?
Thanks.
Thx! Script is very useful!
I am not sure if there is daemon command in redhat/centos distribution or somewhere else
Run the following and try again
yum clean all
