I usually use the apache2 plack handler but from what I understand you cant do that if you plan on using apache for more then 1 dancer site.

Im running into an issue with setting up fast cgi.

[Wed Mar 07 10:31:26.962311 2018] [fastcgi:error] [pid 20247] [client 205.125.62.200:50442] FastCGI: comm with server "/opt/guestaccess/millard/public/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: idle timeout (30 sec)

I first had to chmod +x dispatch.fcgi so it would execute. I then set apache2 to do prefork rather then event mpm. chowned www-data user to own the dancer2 folder, Now I am getting those errors.

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Dancer2/lib/Dancer2/Manual/Deployment.pod#As_a_FastCGI_script

I followed that guide but it doesnt seem to work. I went with mod_fastcgi.

This is on ubuntu 16.04.x LTS.

Worst case is i setup starman and proxy it but i dont really want to do that this time. What am i missing?
