Lisp and CGI or Fastcgi
Posted: Wed Aug 12, 2009 8:29 pm
Hello,
I am new at web development so I apologize ahead of time if I sound like a complete idiot. I am wondering if it is possible to configure a lisp on a hosted web site to run via cgi or preferably fastcgi. I have seen some documentation on the available options for fastcgi with clisp looking to be the most complete (?). I have successfully built clisp with the fastcgi module on the server, however I can't seem to get it to get anything to the browser. I guess I am not looking for specific answers because I'm too ignorant to ask specific questions, but my main concern is wondering if this is even possible given the restrictions I am given for the server (i.e. I have no root access). If any one has any ideas could you point me toward any documentation you know about, it seems pretty sparse as it's probably not a common setup.
Thanks in advance.
