Hi,
   I'm trying to run a Perl script on Tomcat 5.5.8 -- I've managed to 
successfully run read-only Perl script, but the script I'm trying to run 
connects to the database and needs to write to the local hard drive. Whenever I 
try to execute the script, it creates a Perl.exe thread on my Windows server 
and just never return the HTML code (so the browser keeps loading) -- it seems 
there is a permission problem. I've tried executing the script on plain old DOS 
and it works just fine (returns the right HTML code with database information). 
I've also searched the mailing archives, and tried changing the catalina.policy 
file by adding the following line:

// Give all permission to servlets-cgi.jar
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/server/lib/servlets-cgi.jar" {
        permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

but it doesn't work. Any idea how I can give Perl.exe read/write permission as 
executed through Tomcat 5.5.8? Thanks in advance!
