I have only ever written FasctCGI executables (not in Haskell) when the server accepts a port number at start up, and is started independently of Apache (or whatever). And Apache is told which port numbers it will find the servers on.

I was able to get this working with lighttpd, and I did had to choose a port, but only at lighttpd configuration, not at the Haskell source. Thanks, Maurício ChrisK a écrit :

I have only used this, all of these are from Haskell:

The above is included from the main httpd.conf which has:
