Question #: 42
Topic #: 9
With Nginx, which of the following directives is used to proxy requests to a FastCGI application?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Explanation
The fastcgi_pass directive is used to proxy requests to a FastCGI application in Nginx. It specifies the address of the FastCGI server or the path of the Unix-domain socket that will accept FastCGI requests. For example:
location ~ \.php$ { include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; } This configuration will pass any requests ending with .php to the FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000.
The other options are not valid directives in Nginx. There is no fastcgi_proxy, proxy_fastcgi, proxy_fastcgi_pass, or fastcgi_forward directive. The proxy_pass directive is used to proxy requests to a HTTP server, not a FastCGI application.
