Thread: CentOS / Red Hat PHP FastCGI script For Ngnix / Lighttpd / Apache Webserver

CentOS / Red Hat PHP FastCGI script For Ngnix / Lighttpd / Apache Webserver

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.
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

Code:

# wget http://www.adminspoint.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=8&d=1278245810  -O  /etc/init.d/php_cgi
# chmod +x /etc/init.d/php_cgi

php_cgi init.d sysv style script

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#
# php-cgi - php-fastcgi swaping via  spawn-fcgi
#
# chkconfig:   - 85 15
# description:  Run php-cgi as app server
# processname: php-cgi
# config:      /etc/sysconfig/phpfastcgi (defaults RH style)
# pidfile:     /var/run/php_cgi.pid
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
 
# Source networking configuration.
. /etc/sysconfig/network
 
# Check that networking is up.
[ "$NETWORKING" = "no" ] && exit 0

start() {
    [ -x $php_cgi ] || exit 1
    [ -x $spawnfcgi ] || exit 2
    echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
    daemon $spawnfcgi -a ${server_ip} -p ${server_port} -u ${server_user} -g ${server_group} -P ${pidfile} -C ${server_childs} -f ${php_cgi}
    retval=$?
    echo
    return $retval
}
 
stop() {
    echo -n $"Stopping $prog: "
    killproc -p ${pidfile} $prog -QUIT
    retval=$?
    echo
    [ -f ${pidfile} ] && /bin/rm -f ${pidfile}
    return $retval
}
 
restart(){
    stop
    sleep 2
    start
}
 
rh_status(){
    status -p ${pidfile} $prog
}
 
case "$1" in
    start)
        start;;
    stop)
        stop;;
    restart)
        restart;;
    status)
        rh_status;;
    *)
        echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status}"
        exit 3
