[rt-users] FastCGI: comm with server "/opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server.fcgi" aborted: idle timeout (300 sec)

[Pavneet Arora]

Observed behaviour is that the browser request times out.

/var/log/apache2/error.log shows as quoted originally (same error as 
immediately after upgrade to 16.04.1):

    'FastCGI: server "/opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server.fcgi" has failed to remain
    running for 30 seconds given 3 attempts, its restart interval has
    been backed off to 600 seconds'

/opt/rt4/var/log/apache2.error has the matching error:

  ] FastCGI: comm with server "/opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server.fcgi" aborted: idle timeout (300 sec)
  ] FastCGI: incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server "/opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server.fcgi"

Just for completeness here is the apache2 config file from 
sites-available (with host obscured):

    # Tell FastCGI to put its temporary files somewhere sane; this may
    # be necessary if your distribution doesn't already set it
    #FastCgiIpcDir /tmp

    FastCgiServer /opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server.fcgi -processes 5 -idle-timeout 300
