Tomcat 5.0.16 executes binary CGI scripts as Perl scripts
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).

RE: Can Tomcat really run cgi scripts?
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. -Original Message- From: Januski, Ken [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2003 3:21 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Can Tomcat really run cgi scripts?

Can Tomcat really run cgi scripts?
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.

Ken, But now I'm stuck with this error: java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: perl C:\Tomcat4112\webapps\examples\WEB-INF\cgi\exp.cgi This is likely to be due to the lack of PATH information available to the script itself.

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. From the docs on j2ee 1.3.1: Supported Operating Systems and Required Software This release relies on the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition (J2SE). 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?

RE: Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat
It's probably called /usr/java1.2. because it : a) had j2ee1.2 in it? b) it had jdk 1.2 in it? If it's a), you don't even have a JDK. If it's b), then then JDK is too old. Either way, you don't have what you need. putting it in the classpath. That really is only important if you're compiling servlets or other java programs, and using the system classpath variable to do the compiling. 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.

Configuring and using cgi scripts in Tomcat
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
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.

Tomcat running CGI scripts!!
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 IfModule mod_jserv.c # Do not edit!

Re: Tomcat running CGI scripts!!
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. -- Mag.
