[pkg-lighttpd] Bug#543480: lighttpd: FastCGI socket handling prevents php configuration changes

[Stefan Bühler]

Hi,

you are right: removing the sockets would result in lighty spawning new 
backends. But the problem is that php doesn't die, and if you just remove the 
sockets, you will just create more hanging processes.

If you (or someone else who has the problem, that stopping lighty doesn't kill 
the spawned backends) can find out why that really could help.

I always recommend spawning FastCGI backends with spawn-fcgi from supervise 
(daemontools) or runit; that way you can restart your applications 
independently.
