Perform these steps after package installation: 1. Inspect the environment file /etc/sysconfig/fcgiwrap. Set fcgiwrap daemon parameters acording to your needs. See man fcgiwrap for details. 2. The systemd unit files provided with this package are instantiated and must be started by specifiying the desired web server user account. For example, when using nginx, the fgciwrap service is enabled then started like so: systemctl enable fcgiwrap@nginx.socket systemctl start fcgiwrap@nginx.socket Note the socket name is used here rather than the service name. There is no need to enable the service itself. Indeed one cannot enable the service on older versions of systemd. This is by design. See the systemd socket documentation for further details: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.socket.html
