Re: [users@httpd] CGI path problem

[Thom Hehl <thom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK. I figured out to place the path in /etc/init.d/httpd and now I can 
find the program. Now I'm getting the error:

sh:/opt/java/bin/java: Permission denied

The permissions on java are 755, which should allow execution. Is there 
something that prevents CGI scripts from calling other binaries?

Thanks.
