Kevan Miller updated GERONIMO-4200:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: cgi-bin.war
The attached war file seems to enable cgi-bin support using Tomcat's CGIServlet
class. CGIServlet does not support absolute file urls (only files relative to
the war). So, it's not easy to have a cgi-bin directory in the root of your
Geronimo installation. It would be relatively easy to update CGIServlet to
support absolute file addressing (or at least relative to a Geronimo
installation).
If you want to use cgi-bin in your Geronimo installation, try the following:
{code}
cd $GERONIMO_HOME
mkdir cgi-bin
cd cgi-bin
jar xvf <path-to-war>/cgi-bin.war
../bin/deploy.sh deploy --inPlace .
{code}
Place your executables in the cgi-bin directory. Note that this is less than
ideal in that you have the WEB-INF deployment plan/deployment descriptor in
your cgi-bin directory.
