Incorrect requests lead to fcgi process termination.

[ghost]

I have smokeping.fcgi started with spawn-fcgi as a service.

It works, but whenever someone requests an incorrect URL, with a section which does not exist, the process terminates, and the website no longer works.

This is because line 1725 in Smokeping.pm explicitly says "die", and spawn-fcgi does not respawn dead processes.

What is the correct way to handle such cases?

Should I add a wrapper over spawn-fcgi to restart the process, or is this an intentional decision to die on errors, in order to encourage the admin to fix the urls?

I.e. if this is a one-off case, I understand it, but giving an anonymous user an opportunity to terminate a service sounds very weird on the first glance.
