Tomcat 5.0.16 executes binary CGI scripts as Perl scripts

[Patrick Burma]

I am new to 5.0.16 but I have used Tomcat before in the Past. I think I 
configured my CGI settings correctly according to the documentation, I 
uncommented the servlet and servlet-mappings sections, renamed the Jar 
file. I also have .exe MIME mapped as an Application (the default values I 
didn't muck with any of these).

I am running on Windows 2000. My script is installed into 
..\Root\WEB-INF\cgi\cgi.exe

I am trying to run a binary C-Style CGI script. It appears that tomcat is 
treating my .exe file as a Perl script. The 500 Error Output reads...

java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: perl "C:\Program Files\Apache Software 
Foundation\Tomcat 5.0\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\cgi\cgi.exe" error=2

I am not sure how to resolve this issue, it looks like from the error 
Tomcat thinks me exe is a perl script. I didn't know there was a specific 
configuration for how scripts are handled, it appears the MIME mappings are 
being ignored or are not used in script execution.

Any ideas, is there a way to unmap .exe to perl?

I know Tomcat is designed primarily for  servlets, this is a special 
scenario where Tomcat cannot be substituted for Apache (and Apache runs the 
script A-OK).

config settings  -

RE: Can Tomcat really run cgi scripts?

[Januski, Ken]

Well my head is really a bloody mess now but after seeing that other
IOException: CreateProcess errors for other applications often referred to
both path and pathext environmental variables I decided to add .pl and .cgi
to pathext. Path was already corrected and I tinkered with it endlessly.
That still didn't work. Until I rebooted system. I assume that once I did so
Tomcat figured out the .pl/.cgi extensions and processed the cgi file
properly.

Sending this just in case anyone else runs into the problem. I've found a
number of references to the problem on google but no answers.

Can Tomcat really run cgi scripts?

[Januski, Ken]

I've been trying for last day to get Tomcat 4.1.12 to run a perl cgi script.
I've done most of it based on this article:
http://www.fawcette.com/javapro/2003_03/online/perl_teden_03_18_03/default_p
f.aspx. But now I'm stuck with this error:
java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: perl
C:\Tomcat4112\webapps\examples\WEB-INF\cgi\exp.cgi
In researching this on google I've found that a number of people have run
into siimilar problems. Some of them solved it by adding Apache to the mix.
I don't want to add Apache if I don't have to. So what I'm wondering is if
anyone has had much success running perl scripts from cgi directory without
using Apache? And also does anyone know how to get around the above error?
Thanks,
Ken
P.S. The only reason I'm having to run perl is that I need to add iptc info
to jpeg files and I've only found perl methods for doing so. If anyone can
point me to a Java method of doing so I could avoid this problem for the
time being.

RE: Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat

[Wilson, Allen]

It is A...

The machine this is on is a Sun with the 2.8 OS. The java directory was
/usr/java1.2 and I add the current J2EE to it (at the time j2sdkee1.3.1)
and I did not add a JDK. But this should be taken care of by adding Java
2 SDK, Standard Edition 1.4.2_01.

I will try that and see what happens.

Mike and Yoav..thanks for the help hopefully I can get this installed
without any problems and everything works

It's probably called /usr/java1.2. because it :

Tomcat does not use system classpath variables. It uses JAVA_HOME.  So
just be sure to update JAVA_HOME to the newest JDK, and restart Tomcat.
You should be good after that.

RE: Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat

[Wilson, Allen]

JAVA_HOME points to /usr/java1.2.

In that directory I have the j2ee and it information. I am currently
downloading the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition 1.4.2_01. If I install this
and put the information in the class path..will it provide me with what
I need.

Well, no.  j2ee.jar is just a library.  It happens to be quite large and
covers a LOT of functionality.  But it is not a java runtime, and it
doesn't contain any of the core java (j2se) classes.

The reason Yoav recommends you dump j2ee.jar is that it contains a
number of classes that Tomcat *already* has, and it's easier to avoid
conflicts between different class versions by just removing the entirely
un-necessary j2ee.jar from Tomcat's view.

Where does JAVA_HOME point to?  It should point to an installation of
the J2SE JDK version 1.3.x or above.

RE: Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat

[Shapira, Yoav]

Howdy,
All j2ee.jar provides in the tomcat classpath is a headache.  J2ee.jar
contains the servlet classes, which is bad
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/classnotfound.html#filter).  Also
search the list archives on this...

I have the j2ee.jar file in the classpath...should that not provide the

In the stack trace, root cause, you'll find:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 
  java.lang.Runtime: method
exec(Ljava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/io/File;)Ljava/lang/Proc

So something (org.apache.catalina.servlets.CGIServlet$CGIRunner.run) is
trying to find a method called:

  java.langRuntime.exec(String, String[] File)

But cannot find it. There is such a method, but only since JDK 1.3 So..
are you running at least 1.3?

RE: Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat

[Mike Curwen]

In the stack trace, root cause, you'll find:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 
  java.lang.Runtime: method
exec(Ljava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/io/File;)Ljava/lang/Proc
ess; not found
 
 
So something (org.apache.catalina.servlets.CGIServlet$CGIRunner.run) is
trying to find a method called:

  java.langRuntime.exec(String, String[] File)

But cannot find it. There is such a method, but only since JDK 1.3 So..
are you running at least 1.3?

Okay...

I think I have the mapping correct because it now finds the file but
tries to download it. I am trying to add a listing to the mime type so
that it will process the file as a script.

I added the following entry to the mime types mappings list


cgi
application/x-httpd-cgi


But it stills tries to download the file. Does anyone know of another
mime list for CGI Scripts

I'm guessing "resporta" is the name of your webapp?
Where did you place the script? As I read it, you need to put it in 
/ROOT/WEB-INF/cgi (I could be wrong).

You mean /ROOT/WEB-INF/cgi-bin...

And that is what I thought but when I made a directory at that position.
I still was not able to get to the script.

Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat

[Wilson, Allen]

Hello...

I am trying to configure Tomcat to run a perl script that is part of an
application I am moving over from another server. Since this is one
script I do not want to rewrite it so I thought that I could set the
server to run CGI scripts.

I have put the entries in the web.xml file and restarted the server but
I cannot get the script to run. Has anyone had any success in doing
this?

Re: CGI scripts

[Susan Hoddinott]

Hi,

I don't know if this is too simple an answer to your question but it is
similar to what I have been trying to do and I have discovered that they can
be referenced in the all the same ways as a normal http address, e.g.
anchors, etc. (e.g. http://localhost/directory/cgiscriptname.   If you need
something more complicated then look at URLConnection and HttpURLConnection.
You effectively simulate a servlet GET request by opening an input stream on
the connection but you may need to use URLEncode for the parameters.

I see that Tomcat 4.0 has CGIServlet.
At the moment I'm stuck on tomcat 3.3.
Is there a way to configure it to run CGI scripts?

Re: Tomcat running CGI scripts!!

[Peter Hrastnik]

Just read
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-apache-howto.html.
In "Making Apache Serve your Context's Static Files" you find a sample
configuration that can help you. In your configuration every request is
served by tomcat (ApJServMount / /root) and here only static files are
served by tomcat.

Bye,
Peter.

Tomcat running CGI scripts!!

[Corey M. Ellis]

Hi everyone,

I have a dilemna, that I would like to know if there is a solution.  We have
Apache and Tomcat configured and is up and running a java application.  We
have mounted the entire / to tomcat so every request essentially goes to
him.  This setup was for application reasons, and cannot be changed without
major changes to the application.

Now we never had a reason to run cgi scripts on this server, but now we do,
and hence the problem. When we place a perl script in
/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/  "Everything works when the Apache is running by
itself with the Tomcat include file commented out, but when Apache has the
include file with tomcat running.  The cgi-bin scripts fail, they just print
out the text files.

I am desperate need of a solution that will have the following outcome,
Apache and Tomcat running, with Tomcat mounting the entire Apache tree, and
also the ability to place cgi scripts in a directory that will be run either
through Tomcat some kind of way, or through Apache directly, it doesn't
matter how they are run, as long as they can run.

Any advice, and configuration tips will be greatly helpful.  And also
remember, the Tomcat must maintain the entire Apache tree.  Config file for
Tomcat looks like this.


###
# Apache JServ Configuration File
#

###

# Note: this file should be appended or included into your httpd.conf

# Tell Apache on win32 to load the Apache JServ communication module
# LoadModule jserv_module modules/ApacheModuleJServ.dll

# Tell Apache on Unix to load the Apache JServ communication module
# For shared object builds only!!!
# @LOAD_OR_NOT@LoadModule jserv_module @LIBEXECDIR@/mod_jserv.so
LoadModule jserv_module libexec/mod_jserv.so


# Do not edit!
ApJServManual on
ApJServDefaultProtocol ajpv12
ApJServSecretKey DISABLED
ApJServMountCopy on
ApJServLogLevel debug


### Change if you run tomcat on a different host
#ApJServDefaultHost localhost
ApJServDefaultPort 8007


 All jsp files will go to tomcat 
ApJServMount default /root

AddType text/jsp .jsp
AddHandler jserv-servlet .jsp

## Context mapping - all requests go to tomcat

ApJServMount / /root

## Context mapping - you need to "deploy"
# ( copy or ln -s ) the context into htdocs
##

# ApJservMount /CONTEXT/servlet  /root
# 
#  AllowOverride None
#  Allow from all
# 

  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "For internal users only"
  AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/users
  AuthType Basic

  
  require user webodigo
