That's the solution.  Thanks!  Set executable to an empty string.  Thanks!

Running EXE CGI's from Tomcat 5.0.28

2004-09-09 Thread Benjamin Goldsmith
Is it possible to run EXE cgi's from Tomcat 5.0 on Win XP SP2?
I followed the instructions from 
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/cgi-howto.html

But that left me wondering how to set the executable init-param in 
web.xml.  I tried cmd and command, both with and without the /C 
option, but to no avail.  How do I do it?  Do I need to set the 
parameterEncoding parameter to something other than the default?

The web exe cgi is in the right location and the logs show that Tomcat 
finds it.  I don't think it's a permissions issue, I allowed Tomcat to 
run as an admin user just to be sure and still have the problem.

I have spent hours searching through the net, but only found this (which 
asks the same question, but provides no answer):

Thanks in advance for any help you can supply.
