Hi Brent, There are several Plack modules that allow you to run CGIs in a Plack/PSGI environment; have a look at the articles for days 10 and 9 in the Plack advent calendar for details of the different options: http://advent.plackperl.org/2009/12/page/2/ (towards the bottom of the page) Amelia.

I have a need to call a CGI script that resides in cgi-bin from a Dancer application. My CGI application is simple:

use CGI; use JSON;

my $cgi = new CGI(); print $cgi->header();

# Get the CSRF Token fnd the user rom cookie my $CSRFToken = `/apps/www/cgi-bin/rsacookie -g -CSRFToken`; my $user = `/apps/www/cgi-bin/rsacookie -g -user`;

my %rec_hash = ('token'=>$CSRFToken, 'user'=>$user ); my $json = encode_json \%rec_hash; print $json;

The rsacookie is a binary that reads a client side cookie from an authenticated user. The Dancer application is secured by RSA’s web agent. The agent writes a cookie that can only be read by the rsacookie applet. Once I authenticate with the agent, the above script works when called from the cgi-bin directory in a different browser tab/window, however when I call the script from within Dancer the rsacookie applet cannot find a valid cookie. Since the rsacookie applet requires to be ran in the CGI environment, how can I call it from Dancer and maintain the CGI env? My dancer app is deployed with Plack/PSGI.

Thanks. Brent
