Hi, I had a change I made to twcgi ages ago which I've just recently revised: Old Issue: http://www.twistedmatrix.com/users/roundup.twistd/twisted/issue516 New Patch: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- twisted/web/twcgi.py (revision 10536) +++ twisted/web/twcgi.py (working copy) @@ -154,11 +154,20 @@ class PHPScript(FilteredScript): """I am a FilteredScript that uses the PHP command on most systems.

Frankly, I think it sucks, but can anyone see a cleaner way of doing this? It almost feels like something that should be configured on runtime - there are too many places the php4 variable could be (and we can't exactly do a $PATH lookup, becuase php4-cli doesn't have all the cgi stuff in it, and is in /usr/bin/php4 under debian systems).
