Download of FLUS

If you want to try FastCGIs there is an easy solution without changing your operating system, but only installing a virtual machine where you can run a guest environment provided with everything required for experiment FastCGIs. A good virtualization software is Sun VirtualBox that you can freely download here. As operating system I chosen Ubuntu Server. To make it easier to install I prepared FLUS, an OVF image ready to use with Sun VirtualBox (at the moment ver. 3.08) that you can download here (295 M).

Download FLUS

FLUS 1.0 contains:

Ubuntu Server 8.04.3 TSL i386 (32 bit)
OpenSSH
Lighttpd 1.4.19
GCC 4.2.4
SQLite 2.8.17
FastCGI 2.4.0
All the samples of the blog (into /home/back2c directory)

To login use the user back2c (password back2c), then to enter in the root mode use sudo –i and enter the same password again.

Only one note: after importing of the image and before starting it remember to enable PAE/NX option in Settings/System/Processor panel of VirtualBox:
