Hi there, I am having trouble executing a perl script through tomcat by hitting a URL.
THis is what I've done so far: 1. Followed all the necessary instructions to setup CGI via ${CATALINA_HOME}/conf/web.xml Did the following: >Renamed $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/servlets-cgi.renametojar file to $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/servlets-cgi.jar >I've the following cgi config: <servlet> <servlet-name>cgi</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.CGIServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>debug</param-name> <param-value>0</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>cgiPathPrefix</param-name> <param-value>WEB-INF/cgi</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>passShellenvironment</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>5</load-on-startup> </servlet> <!-- The mapping for the CGI Gateway servlet --> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>cgi</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/cgi/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> >I left the web.xml in ${CATALINA_HOME}/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF as it is. 2. cd ${CATALINA_HOME}/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF 3. mkdir cgi 4. cd cgi; web_xml_mon.pl and the configs are in this directory 5. ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/shutdown.sh; ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/startup.sh 6. Trying to hit the URL like this - http://myhostname.FQDN:8080/WEB-INF/cgi/web_xml_mon.pl?qa-1 I get: -------------------------- HTTP Status 404 - /WEB-INF/cgi/web_xml_mon.pl type Status report message /WEB-INF/cgi/web_xml_mon.pl description The requested resource (/WEB-INF/cgi/web_xml_mon.pl) is not available. Apache Tomcat/4.1.37-LE-jdk1.4 -------------------------- Any thoughts?
