How do you get this to run on Debian? On Stretch (oldstable), and as far as I know for a long time before it, you can't actually install a FastCGI module for Apache's httpd as far as I know. If I'm wrong I can't find out how to actually install and enable the module so the virtualhost can't even be enabled.

Install the fcgid module, rename the scripts to end with .fcgi, and omit the SetHandler directive from the httpd configuration.

This is the direction I needed in order to get it working on Ubuntu 18.04 with mod_fcgid, so thanks for putting it here. If there is interest, I can patch the Dockerfile or maybe the INSTALL.md since it is still using the mod_fastcgi and many distros are dropping it for mod_fcgid.

Thanks for this info! I upgraded my Web Server this week from Debian Jessie to Stretch and the upgrade broke twitrssme. Your pull request was especially useful with its step-by-step instructions. After making the changes, I was still receiving 500 errors running mobile_twitter_to_rss.pl.fcgi on Apache. Seems the Debian upgrade wipes out all the previously installed perl modules. Running sudo cpanm --installdeps . as shown in INSTALL.md fixes the problem.
