I followed the instructions in the Dancer2 deployment guide for running as a cgi-script <http://search.cpan.org/%7Esukria/Dancer2-0.01/lib/Dancer2/Deployment.pod#Running_as_a_cgi-script_%28or_fast-cgi%29> but I am getting HTTP 504 Gateway Time-out when I try to access my application in a browser. I am brand new to the world of PSGI/Plack so I could be way off in my diagnosis, but it looks like when I request http://<hostname>/ from a remote host, dispatch.cgi starts up a server listening on port 3000 and then just sits there waiting for input until the request times out. Here's what I see in my Apache error log: [Mon Nov 04 09:44:32 2013] [error] [client 128.117.20.57] [ip2map:30142] core @2013-11-04 09:44:32> Registered Dancer2::Core::DSL__WITH__Dancer2::Plugin::Ajax=HASH(0x3414560) in /var/www/ip2map/public/../lib/ip2map.pm l. 3 [Mon Nov 04 09:44:32 2013] [error] [client 128.117.20.57] [ip2map:30142] core @2013-11-04 09:44:32> Registered Dancer2::Core::DSL__WITH__Dancer2::Plugin::Ajax__WITH__Dancer2::Plugin::Database=HASH(0x3414560) in /var/www/ip2map/public/../lib/ip2map.pm l. 4 [Mon Nov 04 09:44:32 2013] [error] [client 128.117.20.57] >> Dancer2 v0.10 server 30142 listening on http://0.0.0.0:3000 [Mon Nov 04 09:44:32 2013] [error] [client 128.117.20.57] >> Dancer2::Plugin::Ajax (0.10) [Mon Nov 04 09:44:32 2013] [error] [client 128.117.20.57] >> Dancer2::Plugin::Database (2.10) [Mon Nov 04 09:45:32 2013] [warn] [client 128.117.20.57] Timeout waiting for output from CGI script /var/www/ip2map/public/dispatch.cgi [Mon Nov 04 09:45:32 2013] [error] [client 128.117.20.57] Script timed out before returning headers: dispatch.cgi Here is my Apache configuration (Apache v2.2.15): NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName mcmes21.cgd.ucar.edu ServerAlias mcmes21 DocumentRoot /var/www/ip2map/public ServerAdmin mcarey@ucar.edu <Directory "/var/www/ip2map/public"> AllowOverride None Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Order allow,deny Allow from all AddHandler cgi-script .cgi </Directory> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /dispatch.cgi$1 [QSA,L] ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/ip2map-error_log CustomLog /var/log/httpd/ip2map-access_log common </VirtualHost> Note that my application works fine when served with Starman via mod_proxy with the following Apache configuration: NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName mcmes21.cgd.ucar.edu ServerAlias mcmes21 DocumentRoot /var/www/ip2map <Proxy *> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy> ProxyPass / http://localhost:5000/ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:5000/ </VirtualHost> Does anyone know how I can get this working as CGI? --Max
