No, this time I'm sure the user has access right to files :)

I do some tests.
I guess the issue was to access the Environment variables from cgi in
tomcat.
So to avoid (and verify) this .
I modify the code of tinyows and put hardcode in "ows.c" the value for
config_file.
this is the code I change.

    /* Config Files */
(add this) -->    buffer_add_str(o->config_file,
"/home/archivio/tomcat/server/tinyows-settings/config.xml");
/*    if (getenv("TINYOWS_CONFIG_FILE")) {
        buffer_add_str(o->config_file, getenv("TINYOWS_CONFIG_FILE"));
    } else if (getenv("TINYOWS_MAPFILE")) {
        buffer_add_str(o->config_file, getenv("TINYOWS_MAPFILE"));
        o->mapfile = true;
    } else
        buffer_add_str(o->config_file, OWS_CONFIG_FILE_PATH);
*/

But still nothing change .
So I can say that the issue is not to access the config_file.

Now try to use

/etc/tinyows.xml
