Hi all,
Beating my head here...
I'm trying to work my way through the Java-CGI HOWTO, but have run into
a more fundamental problem here. I know I have the CGI-BIN and all set
up properly, and all should be right.
I have a simple Java class:
public class test {
public static void main (String argv[]) {
System.out.println ("Content-type: text/plain");
System.out.println ("");
System.out.println ("This is a line.");
}
}
and a simple CGI script:
#!/bin/sh
CLASSPATH=/usr/lib/jdk-1.1.5/classes.zip:.
export CLASSPATH
# test.class is in the same directory as test.cgi,
# so there should be no problem calling the program like this:
java test
The paths are set up, the classes are okay, and both the test.cgi and
test.class files are in /home/httpd/cgi-bin (fresh out of box
configuration for Apache). I know for sure that test.cgi is executing
because I can add cute test lines before trying to call the java class,
and I see everything fine up to that point. Now, I go to the page to
run the CGI, and I get the "internal error" message from the Web
server. Looking into /var/log/httpd/error_log, I see this every time I
try to access the script:
java was not found in /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.5/../bin/i586/green_threads/java
Okay. I know where the message is comming from, since I'm using the
jdk-1.1.5-5 in the /contrib/hurricane/SRPMS folder, I know that
/usr/bin/java is a link to /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.5/java which in turn is a
link to /usr/bin/jdk-1.1.5/.java_wrapper which is a script that executes
different things based on how it was called (i.e. java, javac, javah,
etc.). The last 2 lines of the script are:
echo >&2 "$progname was not found in ${prog}"
exit 1
So obviously that's where the error message is coming from in the Apache
error log. I admit I'm not a master Bourne shell scriptor, and I can't
see just where the .java_wrapper script goes with its statements. Nor
can I figure out just why having a shell running under a Web server
executing java <blah blah> should be any different than running it from
the command line in a shell. Something is clearly wrong with the
environment as set up by the Web server.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm fresh out of clues.
Thanks,
-Fred
