yeah dude - php-fpm is the best way to go for fastcgi management (soon to be even better) and nginx i am discovering is hands down the best way to do any web proxying or web serving. it has a couple minor things i've realized are annoying (and surprised that it hasn't been fixed before) but otherwise i've been extremely happy with the switch.

Not soon! There is a standalone version now that compiles against PHP sources and is not a patch.

As long as the architecture and library paths are correct, that means that distributing it in binary format will work too :)

http://launchpad.net/php-fpm - we need some C hackers! :)

See the comment above - it will be standalone and easily packageable soon too :)

With even current PHP-FPM though you can just symlink /usr/local/bin/php-fpm to /etc/init.d/php-fpm and then set the runlevels how you want. You shouldn't need a custom init script for PHP-FPM.

Yes, "decoupled" would work as a title too. It's the same code just no longer in a patch and Andrei cleaned it up a bit so it built from PHP sources instead of having to be patched into PHP sources.

Actually, it doesn't require you to -use- the PHP sources - just a ./configure and make, so this new PHP-FPM can use it as a source. That's what I am hoping to get rid of :) However, it only needs the FastCGI stuff from PHP, it doesn't matter as long as the binaries and libraries (that are required) match on the systems, so once it's compiled for 32-bit and 64-bit on certain distros it should be safe to send a precompiled copy around in a package. That will make it a lot easier to adopt.

I intend on keeping the wiki up and trying to keep it as up to date as possible. Some other people have updated translations too.

That is almost always due to SCRIPT_FILENAME not being set. fastcgi_param set it :) typically it is $document_root$fastcgi_script_name
