I'm sorry if my question is not stricly nginx related.

I have to deploy a fastcgi based application (trac for that matters). I'd like to deploy it as a fastcgi directly under nginx instead of behind a proxyied upstream apache running mod_fastcgi.

Is there any known workaround ?

As I know spawn-fcgi does not allow to spawn several processes. As workaround you may try to run several tracs on several ports adn use "upstream".

Yes that could work.

I found that Trac uses python's WSGI which is multithreaded by default, so in fact it spawns a thread per FastCGI request. In this specific case there is no need of a Fast CGI process manager ala mod_fastcgi.

The only FastCGI process manager I could find is the following Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~jurach/FCGI-ProcManager-0.17/ProcManager.pm Maybe it could be used to build a complete process manager.
