MGH Plugins from BASE2 not working

[base]

I am trying to get the MGH plugins working under base2. I thought I would try the simple one (MGH: limit intensity). It is a single perl executable. The plugin config (as exported from BASE 1.2 is as follows).

BASEfile
section	plugin
uniqueName	molbio.mgh.harvard.edu/dpark/limitint
versionNumber	1.1.1
name	MGH: limit intensity
descr	Enforces a minimum value for spot intensities.  Replaces all intensities below the min value specified below with that min value.  Implemented in Perl by dpark\@molbio.mgh.harvard.edu.\r\n
execName	molbio.mgh.harvard.edu/dpark/basefile-general.pl
usedColumns	position\treporter\treporterId
usedFields	_allIntensities
geneAverages	0
serialFormat	0
url	
minChannels	1
maxChannels	0
leaveStdin	0
leaveStdout	0
columns	position	valueType	name	commonName	options	defaultValue	enumOptions	removed
%
1	h	plugin			limitint		0
2	f	minval	min value	4	50		0

To install I did the following

Loggin as Admin

• added the perl scripts under

/usr/local/base2/www/plugins/molbio.mgh.harvard.edu/dpark

• imported the the base1 plugin 'plugin_MGH_ limit intensity.base' Under Plugin configurations
• I then can see it has been added in the configuration as 'MGH: limit intensity' Analyze Base1PluginExecuter
• when I tried to run the plugin I get a Java stack trace
