3. Setting Up Your Server to Run Java CGI Programs (The Short Form)

• Get the Java CGI package from ftp://ftp.orbits.com/pub/software/java_cgi-0.5.tgz. (The version number may have changed.)
• Unpack the distribution with this command:

  gzip -dc java_cgi-0.5.tgz | tar -xvf -
  

  (If the version number has changed, use the instructions from within that distribution from this point on.)
• Edit the Makefile you will find in the newly created directory java_cgi-0.5 as appropriate to your system.
• As root, run make install. This will compile the Java programs, apply your system-specific information and install the various files. If you want the HTML version of this documentation and an HTML test document, run make all instead.
• You should be ready to go.
