When I go to the folder that script is listed there in the directory listing. When I click on the file, that's when I get the contents of the script displayed on the screen like a txt file. Same thing happens if you type in the appropriate address fully. I have edited the part in the web.xml conf file referencing the cgi servlet to verify that the cgi-bin folder containing my script is being affected, and it is. Thanks. --Alex

Quite simply, all I want to do is be able to run perl cgi script through my Tomcat server. I uncommented everything having to do with CGI in the Tomcat web.xml conf file, restarted the server and placed my scriptmin the right place. All that happens now is the script is printed up to the screenjust like a txt file. It is executable. I checked the logs and the log says that a 304 code is sent to the browser. ANY help would be much appreciated. Thanks very much. I think you can run cgi script under Apache only when installed under cgi-bin subdir. Virendra Agarwal
