Firstly, here's my script:
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys, os
sys.path.append('/home/username/python')
sys.path.append("/home/username/python/flup")
sys.path.append("/home/username/python/django")
# more path stuff
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "project.settings"
from django.core.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi
runfastcgi(method="threaded", daemonize="false")
As was described here.
And here's the error I get when trying to run it from shell:
WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param REQUEST_METHOD required by WSGI!
WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param SERVER_NAME required by WSGI!
WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param SERVER_PORT required by WSGI!
WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param SERVER_PROTOCOL required by WSGI!
Status: 404 NOT FOUND

<!-- more html which looks to be the correct output -->
My question is, why aren't those params passed automatically by FastCGI? What am I doing wrong? Running the script from my web server just gives me an internal server error.
Instead of the last two lines of my script, I can use
from flup.server.fcgi import WSGIServer
from django.core.handlers.wsgi import WSGIHandler
WSGIServer(WSGIHandler()).run()
But I still get the exact same error...
