Seafile (FastCGI Mode) with an external Apache Server

[jkp...@ucdavis.edu]

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking to run the seafile server behind a separate Apache server.  I run seahub in the fastcgi mode.  However, when try to connect, fastcgi on my apache server gives a connection refused error. (using the FastCGIExternalServer /var/www/html/seahub.fcgi -host <seafile-server-ip>:8000)

Is this an Apache issue?  Or is there another configuration I need to modify in Seafile to make this work?

Thanks!

Hi,

find the following function in seahub.sh

function start_seahub_fastcgi () {

    before_start;

    echo "Starting seahub (fastcgi) at port ${port} ..."

    $PYTHON "${manage_py}" runfcgi host=127.0.0.1 port=$port pidfile=$pidfile \

        outlog=${accesslog} errlog=${errorlog}

    # Ensure seahub is started successfully

    sleep 5

    if ! pgrep -f "${manage_py}" 1>/dev/null; then

        printf "\033[33mError:Seahub failed to start.\033[m\n"

        exit 1;

    fi

}

Change host=127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0
