automated testing with regress ... curl always returns the CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE to be 0 #32

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

I've tried to run the sample test from,

https://kristaps.bsd.lv/kcgi/kcgiregress.3.html

in a litte different way, instead of using the kcgi_regress_cgi I've used the kcgi_regress_fcgi function. the result of the test, is that it may not be a very good example, for me the tests always return 0 even if it should not because the CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE is always 0, even if the fcgi script returns 200 or 404.

did you had the same experience?

I'm looking into this now. You should be aware that I'm making some bigger changes to the FastCGI handler pursant to https://github.com/kristapsdz/kcgi/issues/27, so I'd be wary in using FastCGI right now. At least with nginx. (I've had no problems with OpenBSD's httpd.) (In general, I don't like FastCGI, as I think its complexities even in terms of deployment outweigh the benefits.) kcgiregress(3) is fairly limited regarding FastCGI: it can't do multiple FastCGI requests within the FastCGI request loop.

well, it is also not my favourite way, but as far i understand it is the most performant one ... from my perspective the better way would be to have a built in web server and use nginx, httpd, apache or whatever other server als proxy ... but i guess you do not think about this solution, or do you ?

kristapsdz commented 6 years ago

I do think about those solutions---it's my job. :) At the end of the day, it's up to however you define "performant". As of the last commits, I've put a lot of focus in getting FastCGI to be intuitive. I'll continue to polish them up before the coming release. (There are a lot of moving parts to FastCGI. A lot...)

ok, i will wait for the next release. would you like to share some ideas what you think about the mentioned solutions (web server, etc.?), that's also my daily business ... :-) ... to think about such solutions ... so if you like we can share some experiences
