This is a small how to install fcgi to work with ruby and rails.

first of all you should have ruby and rails installed on your server.
In my case I installed ruby and rails using standard Debian command

apt-get install ruby gem rails

to make sure that you use the latest version of rails I recommend to
check installation with gem:

gem install rails

after that I was ready to install fcgi on my server:

cd /temp
wget http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/fcgi-2.4.0.tar.gz
tar -zxvf fcgi-2.4.0.tar.gz
cd fcgi-2.4.0
./configure –prefix=/usr/local/fcgi –exec-prefix=/usr/local/fcgi
make
make install

Now you can install the fcgi gem (this is a long command which your
browser may line-wrap here — beware that the command is all on the
same line):

gem install fcgi -r — –with-fcgi-lib=/usr/local/fcgi/lib
–with-fcgi-include=/usr/local/fcgi/include

You also need to install the FastCGI module for Apache. Make sure you
have Perl installed on your shared host, you need it to run apxs!
cd /temp
wget http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/mod_fastcgi-2.4.2.tar.gz
tar -zxvf mod_fastcgi-2.4.2.tar.gz
cd mod_fastcgi-2.4.2
/usr/sbin/apxs -o mod_fastcgi.so -c *.c
/usr/sbin/apxs -i -a -n fastcgi mod_fastcgi.so You may need to add the
following block to “/etc/apache2/apache2.conf”:
FastCgiIpcDir /tmp/fcgi_ipc/
AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
And finally, you need to configure your Rails project to
use FastCGI. Edit the file “(your_rails_app)/public/.htaccess”,
changing the line: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L] to:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
You’ll need to restart Apache before the changes will take effect:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
