You have
<init-param>
<param-name>executable</param-name>
<param-value></param-value>
</init-param>
i.e. you are setting executable="". The logs say that the attempt to execute "" failed.
The change between 6.0.29 and 6.0.30 in CGIServlet is
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1004424
In 6.0.29 the command to be executed was built as a single string, concatenating the components. In 6.0.30 all the components are passes in as an array.
Are you sure that the empty string is a valid value for the "executable"? I do not think that that is a valid value. Thus I am closing this issue as INVALID.
If you need further assistance, please ask on the users@ list.
Discussed on dev@ Fixed in trunk in r1061412 and will be in 7.0.7. Proposed for 6.0.x Fixed in 6.0.x and will be included in 6.0.31 onwards. |
