Web apps written in Java aren't typically calling using the CGI interface. They're called as JSP or Servlets instead. Usually by linking Apache to a servlet container like WAS or Tomcat.

That means that you probably can't expect the CGI data to be there.

Even if you did invoke the Java program as a CGI instead of as a JSP/Servlet, you'd still have a problem if you invoke the RPG program as a stored procedure, since the stored procedure would run in a separate job (the database server job) and not in the CGI environment. This problem could be solved by calling the RPG program as a native method -- plus that would be faster than invoking it as a stored procedure -- but you'd lose SOOOOOO much performnace by invoking the Java routine as a CGI that it would (IMHO) make the application unusable.

Java does not work well in a CGI environment.
