thttpd: CGI scripts & POST method

[http://dummy.us.eu.org/robert (Robert)]

Hi.

After much hacking, I managed to get php4 mostly working as a CGI under
thttpd.  (The two problems were: (1) php4 requires SCRIPT_FILENAME to be
set and (2) turning on the enable-discard-path option in php4.)

After doing these two things, it mostly works except that, occassionally,
the output from a PHP CGI script isn't always flushed.  (As it turns out,
I only have problem with the POST method.  Don't know if this is
connected or not.)  I tried adding "ob_flush()" and "flush()" (and both!),
but it doesn't fix it.

I have a feeling it has something to do with thttpd and pipes and,
perhaps, timing, but I'm not sure.

Have you ever encountered a problem like this and, if so, where I would
begin to fix the problem?

Thanks.

P.P.S. I didn't realize that you lived in the Bay Area.  Cool.
