Hi everyone,
Chuck, I just double checked the web.xml and the following:
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>index.htm</
>
> welcome-file>
> <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
> </welcome-file-list>
>
is in fact there. And Also i restarted the apache server couple of time and
now I can access the web server using
http://localhost:8080/mms_test/index.html directly, w/o having to use
index.jsp.
Andre, for the questions you asked
1) for the connector port I have commented out one of them actually, so only
two of them are active these ones:
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443" />
<!-- A "Connector" using the shared thread pool-->
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
2) for the LiveHttpHeader,I just tried it again. and now it works in fact
this is what I get:
http://localhost:8080/bin/test.cgi?searchvalue=asdfsdf&searchtype=sequence&option=Beta+sheets+Database+Only&length=3
GET
/bin/test.cgi?searchvalue=asdfsdf&searchtype=sequence&option=Beta+sheets+Database+Only&length=3

3) however now i have a new problem: for some reason my html page doesn't
communicate with the cgi file.
"hesearch.html" in /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/mms_test , doesn't communicate
with the cgi program test.cgi located in /usr/local/tomcat/bin.
hesearch.html contains a button which when it is pushed it accesses the
test.cgi which executes other programs. However when i push that button , i
get this error:
" HTTP Status 404 - /bin/test.cgi
------------------------------
*type* Status report
*message* */bin/test.cgi*
*description* *The requested resource (/bin/test.cgi) is not available.*
*
************************************************************************************************
*
However the program is in the right location and i have all the permissions.
any suggestions?
Thank you again for all your helps,
regards
zia
