Hi Steve.

Having just done this myself to help someone else, yes. There's a comment block in the global web.xml file (find it at $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml) that really helps in explaining things.

Hi Richard,

So that's my cgi programs. So if my cgi programs are in
tomcat.base.dir/webapps/mywebapp/misc/stuff/cgi then I set the parameter
to /misc/stuff/cgi ?

The CGI programs themselves.

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/cgi-howto.html says:

cgiPathPrefix - The CGI search path will start at the web application
root directory + File.separator + this prefix. The default cgiPathPrefix
is /WEB-INF/cgi

Does that help?

I'm trying to enable CGI within one of my tomcat webapps. I've followed
the doc but I don't understand what I need to set the parameter
cgiPathPrefix to. What is it looking for in this search path ?


Thx,

Steve.
