First, I would like to thank Anslem for his help in modifying the CgiResource file. I've modified the class to return the REMOTE_HOST env variable because this was required by a CGI legacy application. I now have a very strange problem related to this legacy application. If I run the application from the DOS command box (the platform is Win95), the program outputs the correct HTML. If, however, I call it from Jigsaw the application returns an error. I've verified that all the proper env variables are set, and can't see why this app won't run when called from Jigsaw. I've turned on trace, and I can see one error that might be relevant: w3c.jigsaw.http.HTTPException at w3c.jigsaw.resources.ContainerResource.lookup (ContainerResource.java: 94). which would indicate that the target resource here is null . I have tried this legacy application under another Win95 webserver (the Omni Webserver) and it works fine. I am baffled as to why this application works fine from both the command line and other servers, but not when called from Jigsaw.The problem _appears_ to be similar to one where the applications configuration file is missing or incorrect. Could Jigsaw somehow be interfering with the proper reading of this file (though I doubt it)? It could also be that this exception is unrelated, I don't know Jigsaw internals well enough to tell. Anslem, would it be possible for me to work with your updated CgiResource class? Perhaps I can test this for you before it's release in Dec. I really need to get this working, and would like to use Jigsaw if at all possible. I would be happy to help in the testing and debugging of this class. Oh, regarding the listserver -- I have not received a single message since I signed up last week. Is there a problem with the server? I think that at least a few people must be getting messages, since I've received replies to my queries. - Steve Nunez snunez@netgate.compaq.com
