Prior to 5.0.17, the cgi executable was hardcoded to perl. From 5.0.17 onwards
this is configurable. For example, if you wanted to use XXXapp as the perl
executable, edit conf/web.xml to look something this:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>cgi</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.CGIServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>clientInputTimeout</param-name>
<param-value>100</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>6</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>cgiPathPrefix</param-name>
<param-value>WEB-INF/cgi</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>executable</param-name>
<param-value>XXXapp</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>5</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>cgi</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/cgi-bin/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Alternatively you can put this in the web.xml for you web app. Note that XXXapp
must be on your path.
