Hi Goran.

Keep in mind that fastcgi++ does not create an actual web server.
FastCGI is a web server to application communication protocol. You still
need a web server like apache, lighttpd or nginx. Most of the
documentation doesn't explicitly mention this, it just assumes you are
familiar with what FastCGI is. You may want to read up on how to set up
FastCGI applications with your favourite web server. Apache seems to be
the easiest so may be a good place to start.
