+=head2 Apache 1.x, 2.x
+
+Apache requires the mod_fastcgi module. The same module supports both
+Apache 1 and 2.
+
+There are three ways to run your application under FastCGI on Apache: server,
+static, and dynamic.
+
+=head3 Standalone server mode
+
+ FastCgiExternalServer /tmp/myapp.fcgi -socket /tmp/myapp.socket
+ Alias /myapp/ /tmp/myapp.fcgi/
+
+ # Or, run at the root
+ Alias / /tmp/myapp.fcgi/
+
+ # Optionally, rewrite the path when accessed without a trailing slash
+ RewriteRule ^/myapp$ myapp/ [R]
+
+
+The FastCgiExternalServer directive tells Apache that when serving
+/tmp/myapp to use the FastCGI application listenting on the socket
+/tmp/mapp.socket. Note that /tmp/myapp.fcgi B<MUST NOT> exist --
+it's a virtual file name. With some versions of C<mod_fastcgi> or
+C<mod_fcgid>, you can use any name you like, but some require that the
+virtual filename end in C<.fcgi>.
+
+It's likely that Apache is not configured to serve files in /tmp, so the
+Alias directive maps the url path /myapp/ to the (virtual) file that runs the
+FastCGI application. The trailing slashes are important as their use will
+correctly set the PATH_INFO environment variable used by Catalyst to
+determine the request path. If you would like to be able to access your app
+without a trailing slash (http://server/myapp), you can use the above
+RewriteRule directive.
+
+=head3 Static mode
+
+The term 'static' is misleading, but in static mode Apache uses its own
+FastCGI Process Manager to start the application processes. This happens at
+Apache startup time. In this case you do not run your application's
+fastcgi.pl script -- that is done by Apache. Apache then maps URIs to the
+FastCGI script to run your application.
+
+ FastCgiServer /path/to/myapp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl -processes 3
+ Alias /myapp/ /path/to/myapp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl/
+
+FastCgiServer tells Apache to start three processes of your application at
+startup. The Alias command maps a path to the FastCGI application. Again,
+the trailing slashes are important.
+
+=head3 Dynamic mode
+
+In FastCGI dynamic mode, Apache will run your application on demand,
+typically by requesting a file with a specific extension (e.g. .fcgi). ISPs
+often use this type of setup to provide FastCGI support to many customers.
+
+In this mode it is often enough to place or link your *_fastcgi.pl script in
+your cgi-bin directory with the extension of .fcgi. In dynamic mode Apache
+must be able to run your application as a CGI script so ExecCGI must be
+enabled for the directory.
+
+ AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
+
+The above tells Apache to run any .fcgi file as a FastCGI application.
+
+Here is a complete example:
+
+ <VirtualHost *:80>
+ ServerName www.myapp.com
+ DocumentRoot /path/to/MyApp
+
+ # Allow CGI script to run
+ <Directory /path/to/MyApp>
+ Options +ExecCGI
+ </Directory>
+
+ # Tell Apache this is a FastCGI application
+ <Files myapp_fastcgi.pl>
+ SetHandler fastcgi-script
+ </Files>
+ </VirtualHost>
+
+Then a request for /script/myapp_fastcgi.pl will run the
+application.

+
+=head3 Authorization header with mod_fastcgi or mod_cgi
+
+By default, mod_fastcgi/mod_cgi do not pass along the Authorization header,
+so modules like C<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::HTTP> will
+not work. To enable pass-through of this header, add the following
+mod_rewrite directives:
+
+ RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.+)
+ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1 [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1,PT]
