+2016-09-23 [[alexjj]]: On Debian Jessie creating the fcgi ikiwiki.service is not necessary. Install fcgiwrap, it'll auto start the fcgiwrap systemd service and then add the parameters in the virtual host:
+
+        location / {
+                try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
+        }
+        
+        # Max size of file upload
+        client_max_body_size 10m;
+
+        location ~ .cgi {
+                #gzip off is recommended in /usr/share/doc/fcgiwrap/README.Debian
+                gzip off;
+                fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/fcgiwrap.socket;
+                include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
+        }
+
+Here's a [[complete site.conf|tips/nginx]] for nginx if that helps.
