Simple things first. Did you remember to mark printenv.pl as executable? (chmod 0755 printenv.cgi) Did you remember to restart Tomcat so it can pick up the config changes?

If you have done that and it does not work you have obviously not done the configuration properly. Here is a more detailed installation guide You will note there is a mapping from cgi-bin/* to the cgi servelet. Your path looks very suspect to me. I think you need to create a cgi-bin (call it whatever you want just map it correctly). If you want to run cgi stuff anywhere map to *.pl or *.cgi but this is generally a bad idea as you will end up with code all over your server.
