Summary: environment PATH is not forwarded to CGI executable or
SystemRoot not interpreted
Product: Tomcat 5
Version: Unknown
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P2
Component: Catalina
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Windows environment:
Seems that environment PATH is not provided/forwarded to perl when called.
Or that %SystemRoot% variables are not interpreted
System Variables:
PATH=C:\perl\bin;C:\Windows\System32;C:\Windows
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_06
CATALINA_HOME=E:\tomcat-5.5.9
SystemRoot=C:\Windows

Calling a simple cgi script such as bellow shows that PATH is not setup
#!C:/Perl/bin/perl.exe
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI::Carp qw(warningsToBrowser fatalsToBrowser);
use Data::Dumper ;
use Net::LDAP;
my $IN = new CGI;
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
print <<EndOfHTML;
<html><head><title>Print Environment</title></head>
<body>
EndOfHTML
print "Path:" . $ENV{'PATH'} . "<BR>";
Tracing systems calls shows:
perl searcing for dlls or protocol in:
C:\Perl\bin\%SystemRoot%\System32
Then in C:\Windows\System32\%SystemRoor%
During Java installation the ENV PATH was setup with a foward slash
C:\Perl\Bin\;C:\windows\System32
