Bug#698071: fcgiwrap: does not read DOCUMENT_ROOT and SCRIPT_NAME

[Félix Sipma]

Package: fcgiwrap
Version: 1.0-1+squeeze1
Severity: important

It seems to be impossible to set git-http-backend with the squeeze version of 
fcgiwrap.

Every attempt to clone an existing repo with: "git clone 
http://git.example.com/myrepo.git"; fails with:
FastCGI sent in stderr: "Cannot get script name, is DOCUMENT_ROOT and 
SCRIPT_NAME set and is the script executable?" while reading response header 
from upstream

The script "/usr/lib/git-core/git-http-backend" exists and is executable; 
"DOCUMENT_ROOT" and "SCRIPT_NAME" should be computed with "SCRIPT_FILENAME".

I tried to set "fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME   git-http-backend;" and 
"fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT   /usr/lib/git-core/;" but it did not change 
anything (same error).

I finally tried to use the git version of fcgiwrap ( 
https://github.com/gnosek/fcgiwrap ) and everything worked well (no error, and 
I can clone myrepo).
