Hi,
I think there is a misunderstanding at your side. Tomcat is
container for
servlets and does not run perl scripts or does not redirect calls.
The Apache
webserver is responsible for that. Your configure the webserver to
redirect
cgi calls or you have a perl module which runs the scripts.
That's certainly the normal environment for for environment for cgi
scripts. However, you can run cgi-bin scripts within Tomcat. I've
certainly never tried it. And doubt it would be very scalable. See
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.0-doc/cgi-howto.html for more info.
Geronimo doesn't include the cgi "renametojar" files which Tomcat
provides. However, if you add the Tomcat cgi jars to the Geronimo
repository and/or deployed the necessary jar files, there's a decent
chance you could get it working...
