Hi,
I have installed Tomcat 5.5.28 on my Windows XP computer.
I did all recommended changes to a web.xml:
- uncommented

Renamemed $CATALINA_BASE/server/lib/servlets-cgi.renametojar to
$CATALINA_BASE/server/lib/servlets-cgi.jar.
But when I'm trying to execute cgi module from IE, it doesn't recognize it
as executable.
What does it do then ?
What is the URL you are using in the browser ?
Where is your cgi script (on disk) ?
Is Perl installed on your computer ?
If yes, is it in the PATH (for Tomcat) ?
What if you replace the above
> <init-param>
> <param-name>executable</param-name>
> <param-value>perl</param-value>
> </init-param>
by
> <init-param>
> <param-name>executable</param-name>
> <param-value>c:/perl/bin/perl.exe</param-value>
> </init-param>
(or wherever perl.exe really is)
