I'm trying to get a basic CakePHP 2.4 app setup with Apache 2.2 and PHP-FPM mod_fcgi setup and I'm running into internal redirect issues that I can't seem to figure out.
The apache has nothing but the required modules loaded and basic setup
ServerAdmin [email protected]
ServerName company.local
ServerAlias *.company.local
DocumentRoot /var/www/
# Since htis is a PHP site avoid wasting time looking for other index files
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory /var/www>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews +ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
allow from all
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
The PHP fastcgi process setup looks like this
# Send all php file requests to the fcgi handler
FastCgiExternalServer /var/www/php5.external -socket /var/run/php5-fpm.sock
AddHandler php5-fcgi .php
Action php5-fcgi /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.external
Alias /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ /var/www/
With the default CakePHP 2.4 branch I get the following error
Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.
I've tried just about every suggestion and trick I can find on getting Cake redirect issues sorted out but it seems to come down to the php-fpm setup
My rewrite log looks like this

If I add the following to the app/webroot/.htaccess for debugging
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} 200
RewriteRule .* - [L]
I can see that it ends up rewriting a funky URL and I get a 404 Not Found
The requested URL /app/webroot/php5.external/app/webroot/index.php was not found on this server.
